What is Apify?
Apify is a automation tool. With OSP.net, your AI agent connects to it directly so it can act on your behalf instead of just answering questions about it.
What your OSP agent can do with Apify
- Run Apify Actors (scrapers, crawlers, automations)
- Fetch results from datasets and storage
- Scrape sites that need a maintained, off-the-shelf scraper
How to connect Apify
- Sign in to the Apify Console (free tier includes monthly usage credits, no card). console.apify.com
- Open Settings → Integrations (API & Integrations) and copy your Personal API token. console.apify.com → Settings → Integrations
- Paste the token (apify_api_…) here and Connect. Ask your agent to run an Actor — like the Website Content Crawler — to test.
Security: The token only spends your Apify usage credits and reaches only your Actors and datasets. Rotate it any time from the same Integrations page.
