## 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

## Top Crypto Data Scraper

**clothefobia/top-crypto-data-scraper**

A simple scraper Actor for collecting data about the top-ranked cryptocurrencies: current price, volume, market cap, and other key metrics — all in one go.

***

### 🚀 What the Actor Does

This Actor scrapes a “top cryptocurrencies” list from a major coin-marketplace, and for each coin it collects:

- Rank
- Logo image link
- Name
- Symbol
- Price
- 1-hour price change
- 24-hour price change
- 7-day price change
- Market cap
- 24-hour volume
- Circulating supply
- 7-day chart image link

The output is stored in an Apify dataset, making it easy to consume via API or export (JSON/CSV) for analysis, dashboards, or widgets.

***

### 🎯 Use Cases

- Display a “Top Cryptocurrencies” widget on a website/dashboard
- Periodic data collection for market-trend analysis
- Use as a data feed for crypto-tracking apps, bots, or alerts
- Integration with BI tools, spreadsheets, or data pipelines

***

### 🧰 How to Use It

1. On the Apify console, launch the Actor by clicking **Start** — it will fetch the latest top-crypto data automatically.
2. Wait for the run to complete.
3. Navigate to the Actor’s default dataset to view or export your results.

Optionally, you can schedule the Actor to run periodically (e.g. hourly, daily) so you always have up-to-date data.

***

### 📄 Sample Output (JSON)

```json
[
  {
    "rank": 1,
    "logo": "https://.../bitcoin-logo.png",
    "name": "Bitcoin",
    "symbol": "BTC",
    "price": "30000.00",
    "change_1h": "-0.2%",
    "change_24h": "+1.5%",
    "change_7d": "+3.8%",
    "market_cap": "600,000,000,000",
    "volume_24h": "35,000,000,000",
    "circulating_supply": "19,000,000",
    "chart_7d": "https://.../bitcoin-7d-chart.png"
  },
  {
    "...": "..."
  }
  // more coins …
]
```

*(Note: This is a representative example; actual field formats may vary.)*

***

### ❗ Notes & Considerations

- The Actor depends on the target website’s structure. If the website changes layout, scraping may break — in that case you’ll need to update the selector logic.
- Data reflects a snapshot in time (when run). For time-series or historical data you may need to run the Actor on a schedule and store results.
- Respect the target site’s terms of service and rate limits. Use responsibly — especially if scheduling frequent runs.

# 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 = {
    "proxySettings": {
        "useApifyProxy": false
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("clothefobia/top-crypto-data-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 = { "proxySettings": { "useApifyProxy": False } }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("clothefobia/top-crypto-data-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

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

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "proxySettings": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}' |
apify call clothefobia/top-crypto-data-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,clothefobia/top-crypto-data-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
