#### Multi-Actor Workflows
For complex tasks, chain multiple Actors:
| Workflow | Step 1 | Step 2 |
|----------|--------|--------|
| **Lead enrichment** | `compass/crawler-google-places` → | `vdrmota/contact-info-scraper` |
| **Influencer vetting** | `apify/instagram-profile-scraper` → | `apify/instagram-comment-scraper` |
| **Competitor deep-dive** | `apify/facebook-pages-scraper` → | `apify/facebook-posts-scraper` |
| **Local business analysis** | `compass/crawler-google-places` → | `compass/Google-Maps-Reviews-Scraper` |
#### Can't Find a Suitable Actor?
If none of the Actors above match the user's request, search the Apify Store directly:
```bash
export $(grep APIFY_TOKEN .env | xargs) && mcpc --json mcp.apify.com --header "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" tools-call search-actors keywords:="SEARCH_KEYWORDS" limit:=10 offset:=0 category:="" | jq -r '.content[0].text'
```
Replace `SEARCH_KEYWORDS` with 1-3 simple terms (e.g., "LinkedIn profiles", "Amazon products", "Twitter").
### Step 2: Fetch Actor Schema
Fetch the Actor's input schema and details dynamically using mcpc:
```bash
export $(grep APIFY_TOKEN .env | xargs) && mcpc --json mcp.apify.com --header "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" tools-call fetch-actor-details actor:="ACTOR_ID" | jq -r ".content"
```
Replace `ACTOR_ID` with the selected Actor (e.g., `compass/crawler-google-places`).
This returns:
- Actor description and README
- Required and optional input parameters
- Output fields (if available)
### Step 3: Ask User Preferences
Before running, ask:
1. **Output format**:
- **Quick answer** - Display top few results in chat (no file saved)
- **CSV** - Full export with all fields
- **JSON** - Full export in JSON format
2. **Number of results**: Based on character of use case
### Step 4: Run the Script
**Quick answer (display in chat, no file):**
```bash
node --env-file=.env ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/reference/scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "ACTOR_ID" \
--input 'JSON_INPUT'
```
**CSV:**
```bash
node --env-file=.env ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/reference/scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "ACTOR_ID" \
--input 'JSON_INPUT' \
--output YYYY-MM-DD_OUTPUT_FILE.csv \
--format csv
```
**JSON:**
```bash
node --env-file=.env ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/reference/scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "ACTOR_ID" \
--input 'JSON_INPUT' \
--output YYYY-MM-DD_OUTPUT_FILE.json \
--format json
```
### Step 5: Summarize Results and Offer Follow-ups
After completion, report:
- Number of results found
- File location and name
- Key fields available
- **Suggested follow-up workflows** based on results:
| If User Got | Suggest Next |
|-------------|--------------|
| Business listings | Enrich with `vdrmota/contact-info-scraper` or get reviews |
| Influencer profiles | Analyze engagement with comment scrapers |
| Competitor pages | Deep-dive with post/ad scrapers |
| Trend data | Validate with platform-specific hashtag scrapers |
## Error Handling
`APIFY_TOKEN not found` - Ask user to create `.env` with `APIFY_TOKEN=your_token`
`mcpc not found` - Ask user to install `npm install -g @apify/mcpc`
`Actor not found` - Check Actor ID spelling
`Run FAILED` - Ask user to check Apify console link in error output
`Timeout` - Reduce input size or increase `--timeout`
