PostsCount and HighlightReelCount not showing up in Excel export

Closed

Hello, Had a scheduled recurring task and had no issues previously. However, on the latest run 6/16 12am Eastern Time, the output seems to have changed. I cannot find the PostsCount and HIghlightReelCount in the Excel export. The PostsCount does show up in the online browser preview though. And when selecting fields, those fields cannot be found.

Didn't want to just re-run and use up credits so wanted to check to see if anything changed on the backend first.

Thanks

Hi! Drop-down in export dialog is glitchy (and issue about it already reported), so sometimes it will not provide choice for the value, even if value actually there, i.e. from your run https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/RTFch78iBv7DKTYsZ/items?clean=true&fields=postsCount,highlightReelCount,inputUrl&format=json - all counters presented for all data items, except 10 restricted profiles like https://www.instagram.com/BrownForman - for such profiles actor getting partial results

Also, as you can see, data naming or nesting was not changed. So nothing really else to check at the actor level. Restricted profiles now saved with partial details, before was saved just with "error" value "Restricted profile", now error value is the same but additional partial details saved as well, please check if you handle them correctly.

Other than that not sure what else to suggest.

I´m going to close the issue now, but if there would be anything else we could help with, please let us know.
