Apify CLI Reference Documentation

The Apify CLI provides tools for managing your Apify projects and resources from the command line. Use these commands to develop Actors locally, deploy them to Apify platform, manage storage, orchestrate runs, and handle account configuration.

This reference guide documents available commands, their options, and common usage patterns, to efficiently work with Apify platform.

General

The general commands provide basic functionality for getting help and information about the Apify CLI.

apify help [COMMAND]

Display help for apify.

USAGE
  $ apify help [COMMAND...] [-n]

ARGUMENTS
  COMMAND...  Command to show help for.

FLAGS
  -n, --nested-commands  Include all nested commands in the output.

DESCRIPTION
  Display help for apify.

Authentication & Account Management

Use these commands to manage your Apify account authentication, access tokens, and configuration settings. These commands control how you interact with Apify platform and manage sensitive information.

apify login

Authenticates your Apify account and saves credentials to '~/.apify'.

USAGE
  $ apify login [-t <value>] [-m console|manual]

FLAGS
  -m, --method=<option>  [Optional] Method of logging in to Apify
                         <options: console|manual>
  -t, --token=<value>    [Optional] Apify API token

DESCRIPTION
  Authenticates your Apify account and saves credentials to '~/.apify'.
  All other commands use these stored credentials.

  Run 'apify logout' to remove authentication.

apify logout

Removes authentication by deleting your API token and account information from '~/.apify'.

USAGE
  $ apify logout

DESCRIPTION
  Removes authentication by deleting your API token and account information from '~/.apify'.
  Run 'apify login' to authenticate again.

apify secrets

Manages secure environment variables for Actors.

USAGE
  $ apify secrets

  prefix:

  {
  "actorSpecification": 1,
  "name": "my_actor",
  "environmentVariables": { "SECRET_ENV_VAR": "@mySecret" },

  }

  When the Actor is pushed to Apify cloud, the "SECRET_ENV_VAR" and its value is stored as a secret environment variable
  of the Actor.
