Apify

Apify is a web scraping and automation platform with thousands of pre-built actors - tools that scrape websites, extract structured data, monitor pages, and automate browser tasks. With the Apify connector on Databar, you can run any Apify actor directly from a Databar workflow and pull the results into your table for further enrichment, analysis, or export.

Use the Run Actor connector to trigger any Apify actor with a custom input and receive its output immediately. The actor runs synchronously, returning results as soon as it finishes. This works with any public or private actor on the Apify platform - from Google Maps scrapers and LinkedIn extractors to custom-built actors for your specific data needs.

Use the Get Dataset Items connector to pull results from an existing Apify dataset - useful when an actor has already run and stored its results, or when working with datasets from longer-running actors. Common workflows include scraping company websites for contact data, enriching prospect lists with Google Maps or LinkedIn data, and pulling e-commerce product data for competitive analysis.
