Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

This is returned:

When crawling this URL:

https://aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/studio/features/?nc=sn&loc=2

Here is what my request looks like:

"request": { "url": "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apify~website-content-crawler/run-sync-get-dataset-items", "method": "POST", "body": "{"startUrls":[{"url":"https://aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/studio/features/"}],"useSitemaps":true,"crawlerType":"playwright:adaptive","includeUrlGlobs":[],"excludeUrlGlobs":[],"keepUrlFragments":false,"ignoreCanonicalUrl":false,"maxCrawlDepth":1,"maxCrawlPages":2,"initialConcurrency":0,"maxConcurrency":1,"initialCookies":[],"proxyConfiguration":{"useApifyProxy":true},"maxSessionRotations":10,"maxRequestRetries":5,"requestTimeoutSecs":60,"minFileDownloadSpeedKBps":128,"dynamicContentWaitSecs":10,"waitForSelector":"","maxScrollHeightPixels":5000,"removeElementsCssSelector":"nav, footer, script, style, noscript, svg,\n[role=\"alert\"],\n[role=\"banner\"],\n[role=\"dialog\"],\n[role=\"alertdialog\"],\n[role=\"region\"][aria-label*=\"skip\" i],\n[aria-modal=\"true\"]","removeCookieWarnings":true,"expandIframes":true,"clickElementsCssSelector":"[aria-expanded=\"false\"]","htmlTransformer":"readableText","readableTextCharThreshold":100,"aggressivePrune":false,"debugMode":false,"debugLog":false,"saveHtml":false,"saveHtmlAsFile":false,"saveMarkdown":true,"saveFiles":false,"saveScreenshots":false,"maxResults":5,"clientSideMinChangePercentage":15,"renderingTypeDetectionPercentage":10}", "headers": { "User-Agent": "Retool/2.0 (+https://docs.tryretool.com/docs/apis)", "Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": "---sanitized---", "ot-baggage-requestId": "undefined", "x-datadog-trace-id": "4921186735661459620", "x-datadog-parent-id": "5216962788210542958", "x-datadog-sampling-priority": "0", "x-datadog-tags": "_dd.p.dm=-1", "traceparent": "00-0000000000000000444b9143347728a4-48666003e5b8896e-00", "tracestate": "dd=t.dm:-1;s:0", "X-Retool-Forwarded-For": "xx.xx.xx.xx" } }

Here is the same thing, slightly more readable:

Here is another example. This URL works OK:
