## 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.

```json
{
  "recordType": "fighter",
  "id": "f4c49976c75c5ab2",
  "name": "Conor McGregor",
  "nickname": "The Notorious",
  "record": {
    "wins": 22,
    "losses": 7,

```

Fighter records can include career and fight-history data. Event records include event information and fight cards. Ranking records include the division, champion, ranked fighters, and available ranking metadata. Fields vary when a source does not provide a particular value.

### Freshness and exports

The Actor maintains regularly updated UFC datasets. Each result includes a data-update timestamp so you can see when the underlying information was last updated.

Results are written to the Apify dataset and can be downloaded as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS, or consumed directly through the Apify API.

### Responsible use

Use the data for legitimate editorial, analytical, research, and product purposes. You are responsible for complying with applicable laws and any restrictions on redistribution or commercial use.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call fetchfinch/ufc-stats-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,fetchfinch/ufc-stats-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).
