Apify is a full-stack web scraping and automation platform where developers can build, deploy, and publish serverless microapps called Actors.

This GitHub action sets up the Apify CLI in your GitHub Actions workflow. It installs the specified version of Apify CLI and logs you in with your Apify token, making it ready for use in subsequent workflow steps.

version (optional): Version of Apify CLI to install (e.g. "1.1.1", "latest", "beta"). Defaults to the latest stable version. Use "beta" to install the latest prerelease version.

token (required): Your Apify token for authentication. The CLI will be automatically logged in with this token. See the Apify integration docs for instructions on how to find it.
