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.

This Apify Actor simplifies data extraction for research, analysis, and archival purposes by providing structured outputs of blog content. #### Features - **Comprehensive Data Extraction**: Captures titles, descriptions, comments, and metadata. - **Customizable Input Parameters**: Allows specification of URLs and item limits. - **High-Quality Output**: Provides reliable and well-structured JSON data. - **Scalable Performance**: Supports large-scale scraping with adjustable limits. - **User-Friendly Interface**: Easy setup and execution within the Apify platform. #### Input Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | Example | |-------------|---------|----------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------| | `Urls` | array | Yes | The URLs for the spider to scrape. Must be valid HTTP/HTTPS links. | `["https://example.com/blog"]` | | `item_limit`| integer | No | Maximum items to scrape per actor run. Set to 0 for no limit. | `10` | #### Example Usage ##### Input JSON ```json { "Urls": [ "https://blog.archive.org/2018/12/06/archiving-as-activism-environmental-justice-in-the-trump-era/" ], "item_limit": 10 } ``` ##### Output JSON ```json [ { "title": "Archiving as Activism: Environmental Justice in the Trump Era", "description": "By the Environmental Data & Governance Initiative...", "posted_in": ["Announcements", "News"], "replies": "4 Replies", "number_of_thoughts": 4, "comments": [ { "commenter_name": "Phong Thủy Đỗ Huệ", "commented_date": "2018-12-07", "commented_time": "01:50:59+00:00", "commenter_image": "https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/838e736a093d3093a60ab42bbf59f6a579576b63c166c9cac6e6652c54a50c8a?s=44&d=mm&r=g", "comment": "tks for share" } ], "actor_id": "aMAxMqmwti7RdLOrJ", "run_id": "Mx5Uesh29AVMBTJ4F" } ] ``` #### Use Cases - **Market Research and Analysis**: Extract insights from blog content for market trends. - **Competitive Intelligence**: Monitor competitor blogs for strategic planning. - **Price Monitoring**: Track pricing strategies discussed in industry blogs. - **Content Aggregation**: Compile data for news aggregation platforms. - **Academic Research**: Gather information for studies on digital activism. - **Business Automation**: Automate content extraction for business intelligence. #### Installation and Usage 1. Search for "Archive Blog Detail Extractor" in the Apify Store. 2. Click "Try for free" or "Run". 3. Configure input parameters as needed. 4. Click "Start" to begin extraction. 5. Monitor progress in the log. 6. Export results in your preferred format (JSON, CSV, Excel). #### Output Format The output is a JSON array containing objects with fields such as `title`, `description`, `posted_in`, `replies`, `number_of_thoughts`, and `comments`. Each comment includes details like `commenter_name`, `commented_date`, `commented_time`, `commenter_image`, and the `comment` text. #### Error Handling The Actor handles errors gracefully by logging issues encountered during scraping. Common errors include invalid URLs or network timeouts, which are reported in the log for troubleshooting. #### Rate Limiting and Best Practices To avoid being blocked, adhere to polite scraping practices such as respecting robots.txt files and implementing delays between requests. Adjust `item_limit` to manage load effectively. #### Limitations and Considerations - Ensure all URLs provided are valid and accessible. - The Actor may not handle dynamically loaded content without additional configuration. - Performance can vary based on network conditions and server response times. ### Support For custom/simplified outputs or bug reports, please contact: - Email: support@getdataforme.com - Subject line: "custom support" - Contact form: [Contact Us](https://getdataforme.com/contact/) We're here to help you get the most out of this Actor! # Actor input Schema ## `Urls` (type: `array`): The urls for the spider. ## `item_limit` (type: `integer`): Maximum items to scrape per actor run.
