+---
+
+The [Apify tools](https://github.com/strands-agents/tools) give your Strands agent web scraping, data extraction, automation, search, crawling, and social media scraping capabilities through the [Apify platform](https://apify.com/). You can run any of the 4,000+ Actors in Apify Store, execute saved tasks, fetch dataset results, scrape individual URLs to markdown, perform Google/YouTube/e-commerce searches, crawl entire websites, and scrape popular social media platforms with simplified interfaces.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install strands-agents-tools[apify]
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### Core agent
+
+`APIFY_CORE_TOOLS` includes general-purpose tools for running Actors, executing saved tasks, fetching dataset results, and scraping URLs to markdown.
+
+```python
+from strands import Agent
+from strands_tools.apify import APIFY_CORE_TOOLS
+
+agent = Agent(tools=APIFY_CORE_TOOLS)
+
+# Scrape a single URL and get markdown content
+agent("Scrape https://docs.apify.com and summarize the page")
+
+# Run an Actor and fetch the results in one step
+agent("Use the website-content-crawler Actor to crawl https://example.com and return the results")
+
+# Run a saved task
+agent("Run my Apify task user/my-daily-scrape and show the dataset results")
+```
+
+### Search & crawling agent
+
+`APIFY_SEARCH_TOOLS` provides specialized tools for Google search, Google Maps, YouTube, website crawling, and e-commerce scraping.
+
+```python
+from strands import Agent
+from strands_tools.apify import APIFY_SEARCH_TOOLS
+
+agent = Agent(tools=APIFY_SEARCH_TOOLS)
+
+# Search Google for structured results
+agent("Search Google for 'best AI frameworks' and return the top 10 results")
+
+# Find businesses on Google Maps
+agent("Find the top-rated Italian restaurants in Prague with reviews")
+
+# Scrape YouTube videos
+agent("Search YouTube for 'python tutorial' and return the top 5 results")
+
+# Crawl an entire website
+agent("Crawl https://docs.example.com up to 10 pages and extract the content")
+
+# Scrape product data from e-commerce sites
+agent("Scrape the product details from this Amazon listing: https://amazon.com/dp/B0EXAMPLE")
+```
+
+### Social media agent
+
+`APIFY_SOCIAL_TOOLS` provides ready-made scrapers for Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, TikTok, and Facebook.
+
+```python
+from strands import Agent
+from strands_tools.apify import APIFY_SOCIAL_TOOLS
+
+agent = Agent(tools=APIFY_SOCIAL_TOOLS)
+
+# Scrape Instagram profiles or hashtags
+agent("Scrape the top 10 posts for the hashtag #apify on Instagram")
+
+# Get posts from a LinkedIn profile
+agent("Get the last 5 posts from https://www.linkedin.com/in/johndoe")
+
+# Search for LinkedIn profiles
+agent("Find LinkedIn profiles for 'software engineer San Francisco'")
+
+# Scrape tweets by search query
+agent("Find the latest 20 tweets mentioning #AI from:NASA")
+
+# Scrape TikTok videos or profiles
+agent("Scrape the top 10 TikTok videos for the hashtag #webdev")
+
+# Scrape posts from a Facebook page
+agent("Get the latest posts from https://www.facebook.com/apify")
+```
+
+### Custom agent
+
+Pick individual tools from any preset to build an agent tailored to your use case:
+
+```python
+from strands import Agent
+from strands_tools.apify import (
+    apify_scrape_url,
+    apify_run_actor,
+    apify_google_search_scraper,
+    apify_instagram_scraper,
+)
+
+agent = Agent(tools=[apify_scrape_url, apify_run_actor, apify_google_search_scraper, apify_instagram_scraper])
+
+agent("Search Google for 'example topic', scrape the top result, and find related Instagram posts")
+```
+
+:::tip
+Keep the tool set small and focused. `APIFY_ALL_TOOLS` is available as a convenience export that bundles every tool, but registering that many tools at once can overwhelm the model, leading to degraded reasoning or incorrect tool selection.

 ## Tool Consent and Bypassing
 
 By default, certain tools that perform potentially sensitive operations (like file modifications, shell commands, or code execution) will prompt for user confirmation before executing. This safety feature ensures users maintain control over actions that could modify their system.
