Actor for starting several Runs from single Input. It also has capability to merge the Dataset items from the created batch.

You can access the Batch Runner programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.

1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
5const client = new ApifyClient({
6    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});

9// Prepare Actor input
10const input = {
11    "batch": [
12        {
13            "actorId": "useful-tools/wait-and-finish",
14            "input": {
