What is Apify?

Apify reshapes its Store API for agents, and it will break some integrations on Nov 15.

Apify's October work treats AI agents as the main Store client. On November 15, GET /v2/store moves to a relevance-ranked search backend: search returns a single page of at most 100 results, offset and sortBy are ignored, total and count change meaning, and noisy fields are dropped to save agent context. Earlier in October, the MCP server gained tools to build Actors, read build and run logs and read source files, and the Store was regrouped into use-case categories.

What is ManageEngine Log360?

Log360's September build fixes the migration to the unified console.

ManageEngine Log360 is consolidating its components into Unified Log360, with a PPM in June that lets standalone deployments migrate. Builds since then mix security fixes, including an unauthenticated collector registration bypass and an authentication bypass in August, with marketplace extensions for CrowdStrike, Okta and Bitdefender. Build 13073 in September is a set of hotfixes for migration problems: failed dashboard migrations, IAM errors after login, and notification settings not saving.

Apify vs ManageEngine Log360: editorial side-by-side

Apify
ANALYTICS
5.0

Apify reshapes its Store API for agents, and it will break some integrations on Nov 15.

◆ Current state

Apify's October work treats AI agents as the main Store client. On November 15, GET /v2/store moves to a relevance-ranked search backend: search returns a single page of at most 100 results, offset and sortBy are ignored, total and count change meaning, and noisy fields are dropped to save agent context. Earlier in October, the MCP server gained tools to build Actors, read build and run logs and read source files, and the Store was regrouped into use-case categories.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc from June to now is consistent: MCP connectors, x402 payments for agents without accounts, Apify AI for plain-English runs, and now a Store API and MCP toolset tuned for agents over human paging. Apify is accepting breakage for existing integrations in exchange for better agent results.

◆ Prediction

Expect migration guidance and possibly a grace period around the November 15 cutover, followed by more MCP tools moving into the default set.

M0.0

Log360's September build fixes the migration to the unified console.

◆ Current state

ManageEngine Log360 is consolidating its components into Unified Log360, with a PPM in June that lets standalone deployments migrate. Builds since then mix security fixes, including an unauthenticated collector registration bypass and an authentication bypass in August, with marketplace extensions for CrowdStrike, Okta and Bitdefender. Build 13073 in September is a set of hotfixes for migration problems: failed dashboard migrations, IAM errors after login, and notification settings not saving.

◆ Where it's heading

The migration to the unified architecture is generating its own stream of fixes, while security patches continue at a monthly pace. Integrations are moving into marketplace extensions rather than core builds.

◆ Prediction

More hotfix builds for the unified migration are likely; no new build has appeared in the feed since mid-September.
