Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

They act as intermediaries, masking your original IP address and allowing you to send requests from another location. #### Why Use Proxies? - Avoid IP Blocks: By routing requests through proxies, you prevent the target website from recognizing your IP as a scraper or spammer. - Access Geo-restricted Content: Proxies let you access content or websites restricted by location. - Enhance Anonymity: Hide your actual IP, ensuring privacy while scraping or browsing. #### Types of Proxies 1. Residential Proxies - Real IP addresses provided by ISPs to home users. - They mimic regular users, making them harder to detect. - Best for: Long-term, undetectable scraping, and avoiding blocks. 2. Data Center Proxies - IP addresses from servers in data centers. - Faster and cheaper than residential proxies but easier to detect and block. - Best for: High-speed scraping, but with a higher risk of detection. 3. Mobile Proxies - IPs provided by mobile carriers (3G/4G/5G networks). - Very difficult to detect, as they appear as regular mobile users. - Best for: Mobile-related scraping or avoiding sophisticated blocks. #### Rotating Proxies vs. Straight Proxies - Rotating Proxies: Every request you send goes through a different proxy, making it harder for websites to detect patterns. - Straight Proxies: All requests are sent through the same proxy, making it easier to track your IP. ### About Rigel Bytes Rigel Bytes specializes in web scraping, automation, and data analytics.
