Call the MCP tool search-actors.
Server URL: https://mcp.apify.com
CLI (official)
Install the command and sign in with it, then confirm it runs.
npm install -g apify-cli
apify --version
Run apify actors search.
Note: Sign in with apify login.
API (official)
- Base URL: https://api.apify.com/v2
- Endpoint:
GET /store - Auth: send the header
Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN - Get a key: https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations
- Docs: https://docs.apify.com/api/v2
Before anything else, confirm access with the cheapest read-only call, like a list or a search. Never send or change anything to test access.
Rules
- Ask the user before anything that sends messages, costs money, or changes data, and say how many records it touches. One approval covers a batch the user has seen.
- Never print API keys.
