Hi, I have made a run and got the url to the images and videos of a post, but then clicking on them I get URL signature expired. What's the procedure here? I need to download all the images from several thousand posts but without the urls I cant

Also I'm seeing that of my 107587 results there are actually only 51494, they are all doubled

Shure thing, this is the ID IH26gyVZO4qoNJSPA

I think both issues might be related cause I just ran a python script to see if there were any differences in the duplicated entries and there is a different media link so I get the same item twice with everything exactly the same except for the link and neither link works

Hey there,

Our engineering team investigated the issue and here are our findings and advice:

  • The run took a lot of time and the URL signatures are expired at that time being
  • Also run had an Apify migration (can happen, we cannot control this). And when this happens, the run starts from the beginning.

Our advice is to create several runs instead of one big run. For instance you can create a single run for each of the users or you can batch them in 5 or 10. That way, you get the result fast so the links won't get expired at that time and you prevent the migration.

Cheers!
