Apify Actor Build is a api from apify that teams use to call apify actor build through one stable api surface through one SkillBoss endpoint.
It returns structured output from model apify/actor-build, supports per request billing, and gives agents a stable invocation contract instead of vague routing hints.
Call Apify Actor Build through one stable API surface
Ship integrations faster without vendor account setup
Use the capability directly inside human and agent workflows
Direct Answer
Apify Actor Build is a api exposed through SkillBoss. Use it when you need to call apify actor build through one stable api surface, want one stable request surface, and need a model ID and billing path that both humans and agents can act on quickly.
Best Fit
You want Apify Actor Build behind one stable SkillBoss endpoint instead of wiring up apify directly.
You need a canonical page with copyable request shape, pricing context, and model ID for developer handoff or agent routing.
You want deterministic per-call billing that can support machine payment flows.
Watchouts
If you need vendor-specific account features outside the SkillBoss gateway, you may still need native setup.
If you need a different capability category, use the catalog and vendor links below instead of forcing the wrong endpoint.
Capability Snapshot
Endpoint
POST /v1/run
Auth
Bearer API key
Model
apify/actor-build
Payments
Standard API key, x402, Payment Later
Canonical URL
https://www.skillboss.co/th/use/actor-build-api
Step 1
Use https://api.skillboss.co/v1/run with a standard JSON body and your SkillBoss API key.
Step 2
Set "model": "apify/actor-build" so your app or agent routes to the intended capability consistently.
Step 3
This API can support machine payments via x402 and Payment Later. Keep the standard API key flow as the default unless your agent specifically benefits from machine-native payment rails.

This API can support machine payments via x402 and Payment Later. This endpoint has deterministic per-request pricing, which makes it a reasonable fit for pay-per-call machine payment flows such as x402 and Stripe-backed Payment Later.
x402
Status: Supported. Use x402 when an agent can know the exact price before execution and pay onchain request by request.
Payment Later
Status: Supported. Use Payment Later when an agent should pay with card-backed machine payments instead of prefunded crypto.

Agents
Use the same capability inside agent tools instead of maintaining separate provider setup.
Canonical
The canonical page, model ID, and request surface are visible above the fold, which reduces ambiguity for searchers and agents.
Extractable
Direct-answer, best-fit, watchout, and invocation sections expose the critical facts in short standalone passages.
Operational
Payment guidance is separated from quick start, so users can launch first and choose x402 or Payment Later only when it actually fits.
