## 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.

## 🎵 AnimeThemes Anime Songs Scraper

> 🚀 **Export anime opening and ending themes in one run.** Pull OPs and EDs from AnimeThemes.moe with song titles, artists, and direct audio and video links.

Turn the AnimeThemes.moe catalog into clean, structured records you can drop into a music database, a playlist builder, or an anime companion app. Search by anime name, or browse a whole season and year, and get one row per theme with the anime cover, the song title, the performing artists, and links to the actual audio and video files.

Coverage is the public AnimeThemes.moe library: opening and ending themes for thousands of anime across decades of seasons, each theme carrying its type (OP or ED), its slug (OP1, ED2, and so on), the song, the artists who performed it, and the hosted media for that theme.

| 🎯 Target Audience | 💡 Primary Use Cases |
|---|---|
| Anime music fans and collectors | Build a personal library of OP and ED songs |
| Playlist and app builders | Seed a database with themes, artists, and media links |
| Discord and Telegram bot developers | Answer "what is the opening of X" queries |
| Researchers and data analysts | Study anime music trends across seasons and years |

### 📋 What the AnimeThemes Anime Songs Scraper does

This Actor calls the public AnimeThemes.moe API and returns one clean record per theme:

- **Anime context** — name, slug, season, year, and media format.
- **Theme details** — type (OP or ED), slug like OP1 or ED2, and sequence number.
- **Song details** — song title and the list of performing artists.
- **Media** — direct video link, audio link, and the video resolution.

You can search by anime name, or filter by season and year, and you control how many records come back. Every record leads with the anime cover image and carries a `scrapedAt` timestamp.

### 📊 Data fields

Each record includes: `animeName`, `animeSlug`, `artists`, `audioLink`, `imageUrl`, `mediaFormat`, `resolution`, `scrapedAt`, `season`, `sequence`, `songTitle`, `themeSlug`, `themeType`, `videoLink`, `year`. All 15 field names come from a real production run, so what you see here is what lands in your dataset.
