Apify API client for JavaScript

apify-client is the official library to access Apify API from your JavaScript applications. It runs both in Node.js and browser and provides useful features like automatic retries and convenience functions that improve the experience of using the Apify API.

Quick Start

const { ApifyClient } = require('apify-client');

const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: 'MY-APIFY-TOKEN',
});

// Starts an actor and waits for it to finish.
const { defaultDatasetId } = await client.actor('john-doe/my-cool-actor').call();
// Fetches results from the actor's dataset.
const { items } = await client.dataset(defaultDatasetId).listItems();

Features

Besides greatly simplifying the process of querying the Apify API, the client provides other useful features.

Automatic parsing and error handling

Based on the endpoint, the client automatically extracts the relevant data and returns it in the expected format. Date strings are automatically converted to Date objects. For exceptions, we throw an ApifyApiError, which wraps the plain JSON errors returned by API and enriches them with other context for easier debugging.

Retries with exponential backoff

Network communication sometimes fails, that's a given. The client will automatically retry requests that failed due to a network error, an internal error of the Apify API (HTTP 500+) or rate limit error (HTTP 429). By default, it will retry up to 8 times. First retry will be attempted after ~500ms, second after ~1000ms and so on. You can configure those parameters using the maxRetries and minDelayBetweenRetriesMillis options of the ApifyClient constructor.

Convenience functions and options

Some actions can't be performed by the API itself, such as indefinite waiting for an actor run to finish (because of network timeouts). The client provides convenient call() and waitForFinish() functions that do that. Key-value store records can be retrieved as objects, buffers or streams via the respective options, dataset items can be fetched as individual objects or serialized data and we plan to add better stream support and async iterators.

Usage concepts

The ApifyClient interface follows a generic pattern that is applicable to all of its components. By calling individual methods of ApifyClient, specific clients which target individual API resources are created. There are two types of those clients. A client for management of a single resource and a client for a collection of resources.

const { ApifyClient } = require('apify-client');
const apifyClient = new ApifyClient({ token: 'my-token' });

// Collection clients do not require a parameter.
const actorCollectionClient = apifyClient.actors();
// Creates an actor with the name: my-actor.
const myActor = await actorCollectionClient.create({ name: 'my-actor' });
// Lists all of your actors.
const { items } = await actorCollectionClient.list();
// Collection clients do not require a parameter.
const datasetCollectionClient = apifyClient.datasets();
// Gets (or creates, if it doesn't exist) a dataset with the name of my-dataset.
const myDataset = await datasetCollectionClient.getOrCreate('my-dataset');
// Resource clients accept an ID of the resource.
const actorClient = apifyClient.actor('john-doe/my-actor');
// Fetches the john-doe/my-actor object from the API.
const myActor = await actorClient.get();
// Starts the run of john-doe/my-actor and returns the Run object.
const myActorRun = await actorClient.start();
// Resource clients accept an ID of the resource.
const datasetClient = apifyClient.dataset('john-doe/my-dataset');
// Appends items to the end of john-doe/my-dataset.
await datasetClient.pushItems([{ foo: 1 }, { bar: 2 }]);

The ID of the resource can be either the id of the said resource, or a combination of your username/resource-name.

This is really all you need to remember, because all resource clients follow the pattern you see above.

Nested clients

Sometimes clients return other clients. That's to simplify working with nested collections, such as runs of a given actor.

const actorClient = apifyClient.actor('john-doe/hello-world');
const runsClient = actorClient.runs();
// Lists the last 10 runs of the john-doe/hello-world actor.
const { items } = await runsClient.list({ limit: 10, desc: true })

// Selects the last run of the john-doe/hello-world actor that finished
// with a SUCCEEDED status.
const lastSucceededRunClient = actorClient.lastRun({ status: 'SUCCEEDED' });
// Fetches items from the run's dataset.
const { items } = await lastSucceededRunClient.dataset().listItems();

The quick access to dataset and other storages directly from the run client can now only be used with the lastRun() method, but the feature will be available to all runs in the future.

Pagination

Most methods named list or listSomething return a Promise.<PaginationList>. There are some exceptions though, like listKeys or listHead which paginate differently. The results you're looking for are always stored under items and you can use the limit property to get only a subset of results. Other props are also available, depending on the method.

ApifyApiError

An ApifyApiError is thrown for successful HTTP requests that reach the API, but the API responds with an error response. Typically, those are rate limit errors and internal errors, which are automatically retried, or validation errors, which are thrown immediately, because a correction by the user is needed.

Properties

Name Type Description
message string Error message returned by the API.
clientMethod string The invoked resource client and the method. Known issue: Sometimes it displays as undefined because it can't be parsed from a stack trace.
statusCode number HTTP status code of the error.
type string The type of the error, as returned by the API.
attempt number Number of the API call attempt.
httpMethod string HTTP method of the API call.
path string Full path of the API endpoint (URL excluding origin).
originalStack string Original stack trace of the exception. It is replaced by a more informative stack with API call information.

https://docs.apify.com/api/v2#/reference/actor-builds/build-object/get-build

Param Type
[options] object
[options.waitForFinish] number

buildClient.waitForFinish([options])Promise.<Build>

Returns a promise that resolves with the finished Build object when the provided actor build finishes or with the unfinished Build object when the waitSecs timeout lapses. The promise is NOT rejected based on run status. You can inspect the status property of the Build object to find out its status.

The difference between this function and the waitForFinish parameter of the get method is the fact that this function can wait indefinitely. Its use is preferable to the waitForFinish parameter alone, which it uses internally.

This is useful when you need to immediately start a run after a build finishes.

Param Type Description
