Apify launches MCP Connectors for direct app integration

Apify has launched MCP Connectors, a new feature allowing its actors to directly write data to external applications like Notion, Slack, and GitHub without needing user credentials. This is achieved through a proxy layer that securely handles authentication, enabling actors to interact with these services at runtime. The author demonstrated this by building a system that automatically updates an African economic stress monitor in Notion, providing real-time insights into country stability and historical data. AI
