About Actor Compute Units Aggregator
Ever wonder where all your Apify compute units are actually going each month? I built this actor to solve that exact headache. It's a simple, open-source tool that pulls together the daily or monthly compute unit usage across every actor in your account, giving you a clear picture of your consumption patterns. This is perfect for developers and teams who need to track costs, optimize their most resource-heavy actors, or just keep an eye on their overall platform usage without manually checking each actor's stats. A quick heads-up: if you're running thousands of actor runs every single day, this tool might hammer the Apify API a bit too hard, so it's best suited for small to medium-scale usage. For everyone else, it’s a straightforward way to get the aggregated data you need. Just set it up, run it on a schedule, and you'll have your usage logs ready to analyze. I use it myself to spot trends and make sure my projects stay within budget.

Documentation
Actor Compute Units Aggregator
Categories: Developer Tools, Open Source
Overview
This actor calculates your Apify platform compute unit (CU) consumption, broken down by individual actor. It aggregates usage data from actor runs. Note: This functionality is planned for integration into the main Apify app, after which this actor will be deprecated.
Key Features
- Usage Aggregation: Sums compute units for all your actors over a specified time period.
- Flexible Timeframes: Supports checking usage for the previous day, previous month, or the current month.
- Actor Filtering: Optionally filter results using a regular expression to match specific actor names.
- Automated Time Handling: Automatically calculates the previous day or month regardless of when it is executed.
- Data Storage: Outputs the results directly into the run's default key-value store.
How to Use
Run the actor. It will fetch run data for the specified timeframe, calculate total compute units per actor, and save the result.
Important Performance Note: This actor makes one API call per run. It is only practical if you have a total of "a few thousand" runs or less, due to API rate limits (max 20 calls per second).
Input
Configure the actor using the following input fields:
checkTime(String): The time period to analyze.- Accepted values:
"last-day","last-month", or"this-month".
- Accepted values:
actorNamePattern(String): (Optional) A regular expression to filter actors by name. Only actors matching the pattern will be included in the calculation.
Output
The aggregated compute unit data is stored as an object in the default key-value store of the actor run. You can access it after the run completes.
