## 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

## Website Meta Tags & Open Graph Scraper

**Free meta tag extractor.** Feed it a list of URLs and get every SEO-relevant tag as clean JSON: page `<title>`, meta description, keywords, robots directives, canonical URL, language, favicons, full **Open Graph** set (og:title, og:description, og:image, og:type, og:site\_name) and **Twitter Card** tags — plus the complete raw list of all meta tags found. Perfect for SEO audits, link-preview generation and content QA at scale. This Actor is **free** — you only pay for your own Apify platform usage.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `urls` | array | Page URLs to process (one dataset item per URL). `https://` is added automatically if missing. |

### Output

```json
{
  "status": "found",
  "url": "https://www.wikipedia.org",
  "httpStatus": 200,
  "title": "Wikipedia",
  "description": "Wikipedia is a free online encyclopedia...",
  "canonical": null,
  "lang": "en",
  "og": { "title": null, "image": null },
  "twitter": { "card": null },
  "metaTagCount": 6
}
```

`status` is `found`, `not_found` (page has no title/meta tags) or `error` (unreachable, HTTP error…). A dead URL never crashes the run — it produces an `error` item and the Actor continues.

### Use cases

- Bulk SEO audit: find pages with missing/duplicate titles and descriptions.
- Validate Open Graph & Twitter Card tags before social campaigns.
- Generate link previews (title + image + description) for a list of URLs.
- Monitor competitors' metadata changes over time.

### Limitations & fair use

Fetches raw HTML only (no JavaScript rendering) — tags injected client-side by JS frameworks won't be visible. Polite delay between requests; respect target sites' terms of service.
