Why the gateway is here

It keeps the Apify authorization, tools, and activity behind the same managed route you use for your other supported systems.

Connection model

How to connect Apify.

The Apify connection belongs to your signed-in account. Any Apify-native resources stay inside that provider.

Read connection details

Before you start

  • An account with permission to use the Apify resources you intend to connect.

1. Connect Apify to ApexGenius

  1. Open Apify in Connections. Choose Connect, or Add connection when offered. Give the connection a name if prompted. If Gateway setup pending appears, contact ApexGenius support before continuing.
  2. Choose the account and review access. Sign in to Apify in the browser and approve access for ApexGenius. Apify uses browser authorization; no Apify API token is pasted into ApexGenius.
    The full Apify sign-in page that opens when you connect Apify, with a red box around the Log in to Apify card.
    Connect opens Apify's own sign-in. Sign in with Google, GitHub or email, then allow ApexGenius.Open full-size image (opens in a new tab)
  3. Review the connected account and resources. Confirm the connected Apify account. Open Tools to review the Apify tools. Running an Actor spends Apify credits on that account, and a run keeps going until it finishes or is stopped.
  4. Check the connection. Use Test connection or Check again and read the reported status. Add an AI agent from the AI agents page, choose Read only for the first test, and try the question below.
Connect Apify

2. Choose your AI and finish setup

Each guide includes the AI setup and a first question for Apify.

Current governance

Know the account, tools, and result.

ApexGenius keeps the selected context and current tool surface visible, then records supported write activity for review.

Authorized context

One connection is one Apify account. Apify grants full API access to that account; ApexGenius tool controls limit what your AI can call.

Current tool surface

Reads go through a read-only route that checks Apify’s live labels. Running an Actor spends Apify credits, and runs and stops happen right away unless you set the tool to Ask me first.

Reviewable activity

ApexGenius loads Apify’s default tool set. Run lists, run logs, storage lists, saved tasks, schedules and builds are not included.

Disconnecting stops future access. It does not stop a run that is already going, refund credits, or delete results.

Why a gateway

11 operations. Three tool definitions.

Your AI starts with three ApexGenius gateway tools. It discovers the Apify operations available to its authorization when a task needs them, then runs the selected operation through the gateway.

One saved provider connection

Connect Apify to ApexGenius, then authorize each AI client to use the saved connection with its own tool permissions.

Scoped per agent

Give one client read-only and the write operations never appear in its tool list at all.

Every call on the record

Which agent asked, what ran, and whether it succeeded, kept per connection for review.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Apify.

How do I connect Apify?
Open Apify in ApexGenius Connections, choose Connect, sign in to Apify and approve access. Apify uses browser sign-in, so you never paste an API token into ApexGenius.
Does running an Actor cost money?
Yes. Actor runs spend Apify credits on your account. Some Actors charge per result or event, others for the compute they use, and reading results can use a little platform usage. Your AI can read an Actor’s price before it runs anything.
How do I stop a run?
Ask your AI to stop it. It calls abort-actor-run with the run ID. You can also open the run in Apify Console and choose Abort. A stopped run cannot be resumed.
Can I undo a run?
No. Credits already spent are not refunded, and anything an Actor fetched or sent to other sites cannot be taken back. Results stay in your Apify account until you delete them in Apify Console.
Which Apify tools are included?
Apify’s default hosted set: Store search, Actor details, running an Actor, the RAG Web Browser and Web Fetch Actors, run status, results, stopping a run, and Apify docs. Run lists, logs, schedules and saved tasks are not included.
