Direct answer

How do you receive an email when an Actor finishes?

Configure recipient, subject and body, test with isMock: true, then connect Send Email through an integration or webhook to the previous run event. This keeps extraction and notification separate.

This Actor is for transactional alerts and reports, not bulk campaigns. Do not include secrets, full datasets or sensitive data in the message body.

Cost

Platform usage, not per-result pricing

The listing shows pay per usage. Cost depends on the Apify run; use it for targeted alerts rather than replacing an email marketing provider.

FAQ

Before you automate

Can it send newsletters?

It is not the right tool. Use a campaign provider with consent, unsubscribe and reputation controls.

Can I send HTML?

Yes. The Actor accepts text or HTML bodies; test with one controlled recipient first.

How do I prevent duplicate emails?

Trigger from one terminal event and record the run ID already notified.

Automated alerts

Test one alert in mock mode

Confirm recipient, subject and content before enabling the real webhook.
