How to use Apify from your AI agent
● ready to runagents
An agents tool your agent can run. It takes inputs such as Facebook page URL, Max posts and start_date (Bright Data style), and returns its results to your agent. One prepaid apifare balance pays for this and every other capability your agent uses — under per-agent caps, a kill switch, and a signed receipt for every call.
What you need
An apifare key with credits. That's it: get a key (new accounts start with 500 free credits), connect your agent with its setup guide, and ask it to run Apify.
Inputs it takes
| field | what it sets | example |
|---|---|---|
pageUrl | Facebook page URL | |
numOfPosts | Max posts | 50 |
startDate | start_date (Bright Data style) | |
endDate | end_date | |
mockData | Emit sample rows only | |
rawPosts | Optional: raw Bright Data post objects |
Your agent fills these in from what you ask; you rarely need to name them.
Price
Reserve 5 credits per run, settled to the run's true cost (ceiling 20 credits; 1 credit = $0.01). Failed runs are refunded. The exact billed number always comes from /capabilities.
Run it
Once your agent is connected, ask it:
Use apifare to run "Apify" for me.Your agent finds it with search_apis and runs it with proxy_call (in apifare-mcp). Over HTTP: GET /v1/search?q=… with Authorization: Bearer <token>, then POST the result's proxy_route with the input JSON. Full reference: the docs · for agents: this page as Markdown.
