## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

Real rows from run `5t0gFCV4fI0AOVCRP` on build 0.0.5 (2026-09-25), unedited apart from masked emails/phones and shortened long text; fields the source does not publish are empty.

### ⚙️ Sample inputs

This is the Store example input — the same input Apify's automated check runs — so it is proven to return rows on the current build. Paste it into the input form, or send it through the API, CLI or a schedule:

```json
{
  "category": "all",
  "limit": 100
}
```

### 🔧 Input reference

| Field | Type | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| `pairs` | array | `[]` | Optional list of currency pairs to filter (e.g. \['EUR/USD', 'USD/JPY']). Leave empty to return all pairs in the universe (subject to category/base_currency filters). Format: BASE/… |
| `category` | string (all, G10, EM_Asia, EM_LatAm, EM_EMEA, Exotic) | `"all"` | Filter pairs by category. G10 = developed-market majors and crosses, EM_Asia = emerging Asia (CNY, INR, KRW, etc.), EM_LatAm = Latin America, EM_EMEA = emerging Europe/Middle East… |
| `base_currency` | string | `""` | Optional ISO 4217 currency code (e.g. 'USD', 'EUR', 'GBP') to restrict results to pairs whose base currency matches. Leave empty to ignore. |
| `limit` | integer | `100` | Hard cap on the number of FX pair records returned. Use a small number (e.g. 5) for smoke tests; leave at 100 to return everything matched. |

### 🧾 JSON sample record

One real record from run `5t0gFCV4fI0AOVCRP` (emails/phones masked, long text shortened):

```json
{
  "pair": "EUR/USD",
  "base_currency": "EUR",
  "quote_currency": "USD",
  "rate": 1.139767,
  "inverse_rate": 0.877372,
  "change_pct_1d": 0.2699,
  "change_pct_1w": -0.5439,
  "change_pct_1m": -2.3254,
  "change_pct_ytd": -2.7585,
  "52w_high": 1.173902,
  "52w_low": 1.139767,
  "category": "G10",
  "as_of_date": "2026-09-24",
  "data_source": "open.er-api.com"
}
```

### 💰 Pricing

| Event | Price (USD) | When it is charged |
|---|---|---|
| Actor Start (`apify-actor-start`) | $0.01 | Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). |
| FX pair record (`apify-default-dataset-item`) | $0.05 | Charged per FX pair record returned with spot rate, daily/weekly/monthly/YTD changes, 52-week range. |

Pay-per-event: you pay only for what the run delivers. A run that delivers nothing bills no result events (only the actor-start event, when the actor defines one). Example: a run that delivers 100 results costs 100 × $0.05 = $5.00 plus the start fee.

## MCP server setup

```json

    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {

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).
