Thousands of ready-made Actors are available in the Apify Store, or you can create your own. {% endhint %} ## Connecting Apify To connect your Apify account: 1. Navigate to the **Data** tab from the left sidebar. 2. Click **Add Resource**. 3. Select **Apify** from the list of available resources. 4. Authenticate your Apify account. {% @arcade/embed flowId="cIWtddJQuVpyDzZDuJeE" url="" %} > ℹ️ Once connected, all available Apify tools can be used inside AI Agents, Workflows, and other JetAdmin features that support resources. ### What can it do? The Apify integration gives JetAdmin access to your Apify account and its Actors. From JetAdmin, you can: * Run Apify Actors * Monitor and manage Actor runs * Retrieve datasets and stored records * Search Actors and Apify documentation * Use Apify tools inside AI Agents and workflows ### Where to use it? Apify is most useful whenever your application needs live data from the web or web automation. You can use it in: | JetAdmin feature | Common use cases | | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | **AI Agents** | Research websites, answer questions using live web data, scrape information on demand | | **Workflows** | Automate data collection, monitor websites, enrich records, or trigger recurring scraping jobs | | **Internal tools** | Display scraped datasets, product information, business listings, or other web data inside your applications | **Typical business use cases include:** * Lead generation * Competitor and market research * Price monitoring * Google Maps data collection * Website content extraction * AI knowledge enrichment ## Available tools (Actions) | Action | Description | | ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Abort Actor run** | Stops a running Actor execution. | | **Apify/rag-web-browser** | Retrieves website content optimized for AI Agents and RAG workflows. | | **Call Actor** | Starts an Actor with optional input parameters. | | **Fetch Actor details** | Returns information about a specific Actor. | | **Fetch Apify docs** | Retrieves content from the Apify documentation. | | **Get Actor run** | Returns the status and details of an Actor run. | | **Get dataset items** | Retrieves data produced by an Actor. | | **Get key-value store record** | Reads records stored in an Apify Key-Value Store. | | **Search Actors** | Searches the Apify Actor Store. | | **Search Apify docs** | Searches the Apify documentation. | ## Example prompts for AI Agents #### Scrape a website ``` Run an Apify website crawler for https://example.com and summarize the key information. ``` #### Collect Google Maps businesses ``` Find coffee shops in Berlin using an Apify Google Maps Actor and return the business name, address, phone number, and rating. ``` #### Monitor competitor prices ``` Run my competitor price monitoring Actor and compare today's prices with the latest dataset. ``` #### Research a company ``` Find an Apify Actor that can collect company information for OpenAI, run it, and summarize the results. ``` #### Read Actor results ``` Retrieve the latest dataset from my Product Scraper Actor and create a table with product name, price, and availability. ``` #### Search Apify documentation ``` Search the Apify documentation for how to pass input parameters to an Actor and explain the process. ``` ### Example This example demonstrates how to use an AI Agent to scrape a website with Apify and summarize the results. {% @arcade/embed flowId="GaEgu84pDGyC7f2uU9oH" url="" %} --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.jetadmin.io/user-guide/integrations/apify.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
