## 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

## GeckoTerminal DEX Pools & Tokens Scraper

Scrape real-time DEX pool data from [GeckoTerminal](https://www.geckoterminal.com/) — the leading multi-chain DEX analytics platform. Get trending pools, newly created pools, token pool listings, pool OHLCV data, and supported blockchain networks. **Completely free — no API key required.**

### What data can you get?

- **Trending pools** across all networks or a specific blockchain
- **Newly created pools** to spot early token launches
- **Search pools** by token name, symbol, or contract address
- **All pools for a specific token** across DEXes
- **Detailed pool data** including OHLCV (Open/High/Low/Close/Volume) candlestick data
- **List of all supported networks** (50+ blockchains)

### Input

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-----------|------|-------------|
| `mode` | Select | What to fetch: `trendingPools`, `newPools`, `searchPools`, `tokenPools`, `poolDetails`, `listNetworks` |
| `network` | Select | Blockchain network (e.g., `eth`, `solana`, `bsc`). Leave blank for all networks in `trendingPools` mode |
| `query` | String | Search term for `searchPools` mode |
| `tokenAddress` | String | Token contract address for `tokenPools` mode |
| `poolAddress` | String | Pool address for `poolDetails` mode |
| `maxItems` | Integer | Maximum records to return (1–1000, default: 50) |

### Output

Each pool record includes:

### Use Cases

- **DeFi research** — track liquidity and volume across DEXes
- **Token launch monitoring** — spot newly created pools on any chain
- **Arbitrage analysis** — compare prices across pools for the same token pair
- **Market intelligence** — track trending tokens and pools in real time
- **Portfolio tracking** — monitor specific token pools you hold

### FAQs

**Is this free to use?**
Yes. GeckoTerminal's public API is free with no API key required. The actor operates within GeckoTerminal's 30 requests/minute rate limit.

**Which blockchains are supported?**
GeckoTerminal supports 50+ blockchains. Use `mode=listNetworks` to see all supported networks and their IDs.

**Can I get historical OHLCV data?**
Yes, use `mode=poolDetails` with a specific pool address. The actor fetches the last 24 hourly OHLCV candles.

**What's the difference between trendingPools and newPools?**
`trendingPools` returns pools with the highest recent trading activity. `newPools` returns the most recently created pools (great for discovering early launches).

**Can I search across all networks?**
For `searchPools`, you can leave the `network` field blank to search globally. For other modes, specifying a network is required.
