Frequently asked questions

Why use Yahoo? Yahoo is one of the oldest search engines on the web and often returns different results than Google or Bing. It can give you a wider variety of websites and perspectives.

How do I get the results? Your results are saved in your Apify dashboard. You can download them in various formats (JSON, CSV, Excel) or access them via the API.

Can I run it on a schedule? Yes! Apify supports scheduled runs. You can set up the tool to run automatically at any interval (hourly, daily, weekly, etc.) from your dashboard.

What if I get fewer results than I asked for? This can happen if the search engine doesn't have enough matching results for your search, or if some results are blocked. Try different keywords or relax your filters.

Need more help? If you have questions or run into issues, our support team is ready to help. Just reach out through the Apify platform and we'll get back to you quickly.
