📁 Where to Find Your Data

Apify Platform

• Dataset - The complete JSON data is stored in the default dataset
• Key-Value Store - Find RESULTS.json and METADATA.json in the default key-value store
• Media Files - When saveImages or saveVideos is enabled:
  • Files are stored in the default key-value store with keys like:
    • image_[POST_ID]_[INDEX].jpg
    • video_[POST_ID].mp4
    • poster_[POST_ID].jpg
  • Media URLs are included in the dataset results:

    {
    "storedImages":[
    {
    "originalSrc":"https://example.com/original.jpg",
    "storedUrl":"https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/..."
    }
    ],
    "videoData":{
    "storedVideoUrl":"https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/...",
    "storedPosterUrl":"https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/..."
    }
    }

• Custom Datasets - If you specified a custom dataset name, the data will be there

Storage Limits

• Be mindful of Apify's storage limits when saving media files
• For large-scale scraping with many images/videos, consider:
  • Using Apify's Persistent Storage
  • Setting up webhook integration to process files
  • Implementing AWS S3 or other external storage solutions

🚀 How to Use

Send results into your apps (MCP connectors)

Optionally pipe the scraped results into the apps you already use, via Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors. This is an extra delivery step after the scrape — the Apify dataset is never changed.

What gets written to the connector: a condensed, human-readable summary of each record — not the full JSON. Each item becomes one entry with a title and its key fields flattened to plain text. The complete record always stays in the Apify dataset.

1. Authorize a connector once under Apify → Settings → Integrations (Notion, Linear, Airtable, or Apify).
2. Select it in the "Pipe results into your apps" input field. (If the picker is empty, you haven't authorized a connector yet.)
3. For Notion, also set notionParentPageUrl to the page where items should be created.

The connection is mediated by Apify's MCP proxy, so this actor never sees your third-party credentials. Leave the field empty to skip.

🔍 Advanced Features

Detailed Post Extraction

Enable getDetails: true to navigate to each post's page and extract:

• Complete post content (not just previews)
• All comments including replies
• Full resolution images
• Related hashtags and topics
• Edit history information

Media Downloading

When you enable saveImages or saveVideos, the actor will download all media files to your storage. This is perfect for:

• Creating content archives
• Building training datasets
• Conducting visual analysis
• Preserving content for offline use

Crash Recovery & Rerun

This actor uses Apify's Request Queue for state persistence during detail fetching:

• Resume after crash: Simply Resurrect the failed run - it will continue from unprocessed posts
• Start fresh: Set clearStorage: true in input, or start a new run (not resurrect)

How it works:

1. All post URLs are added to a persistent Request Queue before processing details
2. Each post is marked as "handled" only after successful extraction
3. Each post is saved to the dataset immediately (incremental saves)
4. On restart, only unhandled requests are processed
