Apify MCP gives agents authenticated access to web scraping: run Actors, extract data, and automate browsers without exposing tokens.

  • Per-user credentials: each call uses the actual user's token, never a shared bot.
  • Encrypted per-tenant vault: AES-256, resolved at request time, never in LLM context.
  • Scoped before every call: pre-call scope check, 90-day SIEM-exportable audit chain.

Apify MCP tools for AI agents

CALL ANY TOOL
10 tools covering call, abort, fetch.
apifymcp_search_actors
Search actors
Search the Apify Store to FIND and DISCOVER what scraping tools/Actors exist for specific platforms or use cases. This tool provides INFORMATION about available Actors : it does NOT retrieve actual data or run any scraping tasks. When to use: - Find what scraping tools exist for a platform (e.g. 'What tools can scrape Instagram?') - Discover available Actors for a use case (e.g. 'Find an Actor for Amazon products') - Browse existing solutions before calling an Actor When NOT to use: - User wants immediate data retrieval : use apifymcp_rag_web_browser instead - You already know the Actor ID : use apifymcp_fetch_actor_details or apifymcp_call_actor directly Always do at least two searches: first with broad keywords, then with more specific terms if needed.
Parameters
Name
Type
Required
Description
keywords
string
Optional
Space-separated keywords to search Actors in the Apify Store. Use 1-3 simple terms (e.g. 'Instagram posts', 'Amazon products'). Avoid generic terms like 'scraper' or 'crawler'. Omitting keywords or passing an empty string returns popular/general Actors : always provide keywords for relevant results.
limit
integer
Optional
Maximum number of Actors to return (1-10, default: 5)
offset
integer
Optional
Number of results to skip for pagination (default: 0)

SEE HOW AUTH WORKS
User authorises once. Every agent call after uses their token with scope enforcement.
1
Authorize
Your user connects
Apify MCP
once. We tie it to their identity and the meetings they approved — no shared bot account, no org-wide access
Who:
user ‘A’
when:
Once per user
access:
Limited to user
2
Store
Their
Apify MCP
token lives in a vault scoped to them. User A's meetings are never reachable by an agent acting for user B, even on the same connection
vault:
encrypted
scope:
per-user
tokens:
auto-refreshed
3
Resolve
When your agent calls a
Apify MCP
tool, we fetch the right token server-side. It never touches your agent, never appears in the LLM context, never shows up in your logs
speed:
~40ms
check:
before every call
seen by:
nobody
4
Audit
Every
Apify MCP
tool call is logged — who triggered it, which meeting was fetched, what came back. 90 days of history, tied to the user who authorized it
history:
90 days
export:
SIEM-ready
logged:
every call

GTM and RevOps Teams
Competitive intelligence briefing agent
Scans Gong calls for competitor mentions, matches each one to its Notion battlecard, and DMs every affected rep a single Slack digest per cycle. Every call runs as the PMM who owns the briefing, never a shared bot.
GTM and RevOps Teams
Outbound prospecting agent
Searches Apollo for prospects matching your ICP, scores and ranks them, drafts personalized outreach in Gmail, and logs every send to Google Sheets. Mail goes out as the rep, not from a shared inbox.
GTM and RevOps Teams
Deal intelligence agent
Pulls recent Gong calls, scores deal risk with an LLM, cross-references the record in Attio, and DMs each owner their at-risk deals in Slack. Every read is scoped to that rep's own access.
Support and Ops Teams
Support triage agent
Fetches new Zendesk tickets, classifies them by type and urgency, searches the Notion knowledge base for an answer, and routes what it cannot resolve to Slack. Every call runs on the support agent's own delegated OAuth.

Why Scalekit
Secure your agent's access. Connectors ship in minutes
01.
Shared tokens break per-user analytics
A shared token looks fine in a demo. In production every call looks like a service account. Scalekit resolves the real user credential.
// shared token
audit → bot_service_account

// scalekit
audit → user_abc ✓
02.
Authentication is not authorization
03.
Multi-tenancy is architectural
04.
One connector today. Ten tomorrow.
“Our agents act across Salesforce, Gong, Google Drive, and more, on behalf of every customer. Scalekit behind the scenes meant we can keep adding tools without ever rebuilding how credentials or tool calling work.”

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions

Does the agent access Apify as the user or as a shared key?
As the user. Each workspace member authorizes once and Scalekit resolves their credential at request time. Audit logs attribute every action to that user, not a shared service account.

Where is the Apify bearer token stored?
In Scalekit's managed AES-256 token vault, namespaced per tenant. Refresh is automatic. Revocation is a single dashboard action. Tokens never appear in prompts, logs, or LLM context.

Can I limit what the agent is allowed to do in Apify?
Yes. Pass a tool name filter to listScopedTools so the AI agent only sees the subset you authorize. Pre-API-call scope checks block out-of-policy actions before the request reaches Apify.

What happens when a user revokes Apify access?
The connection is invalidated on the next tool call. Subsequent requests for that user fail closed with a clear error. Other users in the tenant remain unaffected. The event is logged for audit.

Whose Apify account do Actor runs bill against?
The authorizing user's. Actor calls, run aborts, and dataset reads use that user's Apify plan, memory limits, and storage, so scraping spend attributes to the person who triggered it.
