be scheduled to run automatically at any interval \u2014 hourly, daily, or weekly. This enables continuous data collection without manual effort.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Key-Value Store:<\/strong> Save intermediate data between Actor runs using the built-in key-value store. This is easy to miss but incredibly useful for multi-step workflows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Actor Standby Mode:<\/strong> Keep an Actor running in the background and send it HTTP requests on demand. Perfect for building real-time data APIs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dataset Versioning:<\/strong> View and compare different runs of the same Actor over time. This helps you track changes on a website at any date.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedbtn.kt-btns153373_104850-8e, .site .entry-content

Memory<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cause:<\/strong> The Actor is trying to process too many pages at once or storing too much data in memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fix:<\/strong> Increase the Actor&#8217;s memory allocation in the run configuration. Alternatively, reduce the number of concurrent requests or use pagination to process data in smaller batches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:15px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Problem: Scraper Gets Blocked<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cause:<\/strong> The target website detects automated traffic and throws a CAPTCHA or blocks your IP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fix:<\/strong> Switch from datacenter proxies to residential proxies. Enable browser fingerprinting and add random delays between requests.

Apify?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Apify<\/strong> is a web scraping and automation platform that lets you extract data from any website at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of it like a cloud-based workshop for web data \u2014 you pick the right tool (an Actor), point it at a website, and it collects the data for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apify Actors are small cloud programs that perform specific tasks. An Actor can be configured to scrape any webpage, and you can run them without needing to keep your computer on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The web scraping market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.20% between 2025 and 2030. This means more people and businesses need tools like Apify every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apify is also a platform where developers can build and publish their own scrapers and get paid. There are more than 25,000 customers on the platform, creating strong demand for web scraping services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch this quick video overview:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed

Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">What is Apify used for?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apify is used for web scraping, data extraction, and web automation. You can use it to collect data from any website \u2014 product prices, contact details, social media posts, search results, and more. It&#8217;s a full platform with ready-made Actors, proxy management, and cloud infrastructure for running tasks at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is Apify scraping legal?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Web scraping legality depends on what data you collect and how you use it. Scraping publicly available data is generally considered legal, but always check a website&#8217;s terms of service first. Apify itself is a platform \u2014 the legal responsibility lies with the user to follow applicable laws and respect robots.txt files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is Apify API free?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, the Apify API is free to use on all plans including the free tier. You get $5 in monthly credits on the free plan, which covers basic API usage. Paid plans give you more credits and higher usage limits. The API lets you run Actors, manage datasets, and integrate with other tools programmatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is Apify worth it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, Apify is worth it if you need regular web scraping or automation. The free plan is a good place to start and test the platform. For teams scraping more than 50,000 data points monthly, Apify offers better value than most competitors. The Apify Store alone saves hours of development time with its 3,000+ ready-made Actors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is scraping legal in Apify?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apify allows you to scrape publicly available web data. The platform is compliant with GDPR and CCPA standards. However, the user is responsible for making sure their scraping activities follow local laws and the target website&#8217;s terms of service. Always read the site&#8217;s robots.txt before you start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is Apify scraper free?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apify offers a free plan with $5 in monthly credits. This is enough to run hundreds of small scraping tasks each month. No credit card is required to sign up. Many Actors in the Apify Store are also free to use \u2014 you only pay for the compute units consumed during the run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Can Apify scrape Instagram?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, Apify has several Instagram scraper Actors in the Apify Store. You can scrape public profiles, posts, hashtags, and comments. These Actors handle anti-blocking and proxy rotation automatically. Just enter the Instagram URLs or usernames as input and the Actor collects the data for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Can Apify scrape <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fahimai.com\/linkedin-automation-tools\" title=\"LinkedIn\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"96355\">LinkedIn<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apify has LinkedIn scraper Actors available in the store. These Actors can collect public profile data, job listings, and company information. Keep in mind that LinkedIn has strict anti-scraping measures, so you may need residential proxies for reliable results. Always follow LinkedIn&#8217;s terms of service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is it illegal to scrape an API?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scraping a public API is generally not illegal if you follow the API&#8217;s terms of use. However, some APIs have rate limits and usage restrictions that you must respect. If you&#8217;re wondering about a specific case, check the API&#8217;s documentation and terms. Using the Apify API itself to manage your scraping tasks is perfectly fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">How to use Apify for web scraping?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get started with Apify for web scraping, create a free account on apify.com. Then open the Apify Store and find a scraper Actor for your target website. Enter the URL, configure input options, and click Start. The Actor runs in the cloud and delivers your data in JSON, CSV, or Excel format. Follow the step by step tutorial in this guide for detailed instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is Apify.com legit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, Apify.com is a legitimate web scraping and automation platform.

You can run Actors, manage datasets, schedule tasks, and retrieve scraped data using simple HTTP requests. Developers use the API to integrate Apify into their own applications, build custom automation workflows, and connect with other tools like Python scripts or web apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is web scraping legal in Apify?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apify supports legal web scraping of publicly available data. The platform includes built-in compliance features and respects robots.txt by default. The legality of any specific scraping task depends on the target site&#8217;s terms, your local laws, and how you use the collected data. Apify is not a matter of legality itself \u2014 it&#8217;s a tool, and the user decides how to use it responsibly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is web scraping illegal?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Web scraping is not automatically illegal. Courts have ruled that scraping publicly available data can be lawful. However, scraping private data, bypassing login walls, or violating a website&#8217;s terms of service can create legal issues. Always check local laws and the site&#8217;s terms before starting any scraping task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is screen scraping illegal?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Screen scraping \u2014 extracting data from a computer screen or web page \u2014 follows the same legal rules as web scraping. If the data is publicly available and you&#8217;re not violating any terms, it&#8217;s generally considered legal. The key is to always respect the website&#8217;s policies and local data protection regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">Is Apify free to use?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, Apify has a free plan that gives you $5 in monthly credits. No credit card is required to sign up. You can run Actors from the Apify Store, use the API, and access datacenter proxies \u2014 all for free. If you need more resources, paid plans start at $29\/month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-top:25px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:25px;font-weight:600\">What does an OnlyFans scraper do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An OnlyFans scraper is a tool designed to extract publicly available data from OnlyFans profiles \u2014 like profile names, bios, and post counts. Apify may have community-built Actors for this purpose, but always use them responsibly. Scraping private or paywalled content violates terms of service and could have legal consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@graph\": [\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"HowTo\",\n      \"@id\": \"https:\/\/www.fahimai.com\/how-to-use-apify\/#howto-getting-started\",\n      \"name\": \"How to Get Started with Apify\",\n      \"description\": \"Set up your Apify account and complete initial setup\",\n      \"totalTime\": \"PT3M\",\n      \"step\": [\n        {\"@type\": \"HowToStep\", \"name\": \"Create Your Account\", \"text\": \"Go to apify.com, click Start free, enter your email and create a password.
