Get your Apify API token

To run this actor from your own code you need an Apify API token. Get one in about a minute:

1. Sign up for a free Apify account (Google, GitHub, or email).
2. Go to Settings → Integrations → API tokens.
3. Click Create a new API token. Copy it and keep it secret.

Free tier: Apify credits your account with $5 of platform usage every month, no credit card required. Enough to test any actor meaningfully. How many results that covers depends on the actor's price per result.
