Is N8N correct? I think they spell it n8n.

## Apify Scraper for AI Crawling

Apify Scraper for AI Crawling from [Apify](https://apify.com/) lets you extract text content from websites to feed AI models, LLM applications, vector databases, or Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines. It supports rich formatting using Markdown, cleans the HTML of irrelevant elements, downloads linked files, and integrates with AI ecosystems like LangChain, LlamaIndex, and other LLM frameworks.

Shouldn't this be a link to specific Actor, not general link to apify.com?

## Install the Apify Node (self-hosted)

If you're running a self-hosted n8n instance, you can install the Apify community node directly from the editor. This process adds the node to your available tools, enabling Apify operations in workflows.

1. Open your n8n instance.
1. Go to **Settings > Community Nodes**.
1. Select **Install**.
1. Enter the npm package name: `@apify/n8n-nodes-apify-content-crawler` (for latest version). To install a specific [version](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@apify/n8n-nodes-apify-content-crawler?activeTab=versions) enter e.g `@apify/[email protected]`.
1. Agree to the [risks](https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/community-nodes/risks/) of using community nodes and select **Install**.
1. You can now use the node in your workflows.

We mention that cloud is also an option, shouldn't there be also a brief explanation how to configure it for cloud version?
