Metadata extractor

The actor takes a URL of a web page on input, loads the HTML using a raw HTTP request and then extracts metadata from the HTML. The result is stored as a JSON file into the default Key-value store associated with actor run, under the OUTPUT key.

For example, for https://www.apify.com, the JSON result looks as follows:

{
    "url": "https://www.apify.com/",
    "title": "Web Scraping, Data Extraction and Automation · Apify",
    "meta": {
        "X-UA-Compatible": "IE=edge,chrome=1",
