## 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

## IP Info Scraper - Geolocation & ISP Data

Look up IP addresses to get geolocation, ISP, timezone, and city data. Batch process multiple IPs or auto-detect your current location. Uses multiple free API sources with automatic fallback.

### Features

- **Auto-detect**: Get geolocation for the runner's current IP
- **Batch lookup**: Process multiple IPs in one run
- **Multi-source**: Uses ip-api.com (primary) with ipapi.co fallback
- **Rich data**: City, region, country, coordinates, ISP, ASN, timezone, postal code
- No API key required
- Built-in rate limiting for reliable batch processing

### Input Example

```json
{
    "ips": "8.8.8.8,1.1.1.1,208.67.222.222",
    "limit": 50
}
```

Auto-detect mode:

```json
{
    "ips": "auto"
}
```

### Output Fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `ip` | string | IP address |
| `city` | string | City name |
| `region` | string | Region/state name |
| `regionCode` | string | Region/state code |
| `country` | string | Country code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2) |
| `countryName` | string | Full country name |
| `loc` | string | Coordinates as "lat,lng" |
| `latitude` | number | Latitude |
| `longitude` | number | Longitude |
| `org` | string | ISP or organization |
| `as` | string | Autonomous system number |
| `postal` | string | Postal/ZIP code |
| `timezone` | string | Timezone (e.g., America/New\_York) |
| `source` | string | Which API provided the data |

### Rate Limits

The scraper uses free APIs with built-in rate limiting:

- ip-api.com: 45 requests/minute (primary)
- ipapi.co: 1,000 requests/day (fallback)

The scraper automatically spaces requests to stay within limits.

### Cost

This actor charges $0.005 per result using Pay-Per-Event pricing.

# Actor input Schema

## `ips` (type: `string`):

Comma-separated IP addresses to look up, or 'auto' to detect the runner's current IP. Examples: 'auto', '8.8.8.8', '8.8.8.8,1.1.1.1,208.67.222.222'

## `limit` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of IPs to process (for large lists).

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional proxy configuration.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "ips": "auto",
  "limit": 50
}
```

# 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 = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("lulzasaur/ipinfo-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);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("lulzasaur/ipinfo-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print("💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/" + run["defaultDatasetId"])
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
