Actor runs in loop, scrapes thousands of repeated results

Closed

Hi! The crawler is sometimes stuck in a loop and returning repeated results. In the attached run I had to manually stop it. The post has ~200 comments and I stopped it at more than 3 thousand, charging me for all of them.

Hello, we are investigating issues with comments actors

Keep in mind that in actor input settings you can limit how many results you want.

Hey Jan, thanks for the prompt response, let me know when you have updates. I also don't think I received all the 200 comments, it's returning the same few comments in loop.

I saw on the issues tab from the official actor: https://console.apify.com/organization/d8Gn9RLgG8qysza6c/actors/us5srxAYnsrkgUv2v/issues/nb8cezUjb1sPa10rh – that Facebook has made changes to make scrapping harder recently, maybe that's what's causing the issue?

If you're working on the scrapper, would you mind also adding the link to the commenter profile picture? That's a feature I'm missing here but present on the official Apify actor.

Yea, Facebook did some changes recently. That’s probably an issue

About your request, I will try but let’s check what’s possible
