## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Crypto Market Data Scraper — Live Prices, Market Cap & 24h Change

Export **live cryptocurrency market data** for any coin or the **top N by market
cap**: price, market cap, rank, 24h volume, 1h/24h/7d change, supply and
all-time-high — in USD or any quote currency. Powered by the public CoinGecko
API. **No API key, no login.**

### 💡 Use cases

- Build a **crypto price dashboard** or portfolio tracker
- Feed **market data** into trading bots and alerts
- Snapshot the **top 100 coins** on a schedule
- Enrich research datasets with live market metrics

### ⚙️ Input

```json
{ "coinIds": ["bitcoin", "ethereum", "solana"], "vsCurrency": "usd" }
```

Or `{ "topN": 100, "vsCurrency": "usd" }` for the top 100 by market cap.

### 📤 Output (one item per coin)

```json
{ "id": "bitcoin", "symbol": "btc", "name": "Bitcoin", "current_price": 68000,
  "market_cap": 1340000000000, "market_cap_rank": 1,
  "price_change_percentage_24h": 1.8, "vs_currency": "usd" }
```

### ❓ FAQ

**Do I need an API key?** No — it uses the free public CoinGecko API.
**How fresh is the data?** Near real time (CoinGecko updates every few minutes).
**Can I get the whole market?** Yes — set `topN` up to 250 per run.
**Integrations?** Apify API, Scheduler, webhooks, Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets.

# Actor input Schema

## `coinIds` (type: `array`):

CoinGecko coin IDs (e.g. bitcoin, ethereum, solana). Ignored if 'Top N' is set.

## `topN` (type: `integer`):

Instead of specific coins, return the top N coins by market cap (1–250).

## `vsCurrency` (type: `string`):

Fiat/crypto to price against (usd, eur, btc…).

  ],
  "topN": 0,
  "vsCurrency": "usd"
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "coinIds": [
        "bitcoin",
        "ethereum",
        "solana"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("convertfleetdotonline/crypto-market-data-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
