Common Problems & Solutions

"Invalid API key" error

Cause: Your API key is wrong, expired, or doesn't have the right permissions. Fix: Double-check your API key. Make sure you copied it exactly without extra spaces.

"Rate limit exceeded" error

Cause: You've hit the API's rate limits. Fix: Wait a few minutes, then try again. Consider reducing the number of concurrent requests.

Empty or incomplete results

Cause: The target may have anti-scraping protection or the data doesn't exist. Fix:

• Check if the URL/search query is correct
• Try with different parameters
• Some sites may block automated access

Demo data showing instead of real results

Cause: demoMode is still set to true. Fix: Set demoMode: false and provide your API key(s).

Cookie Manager Integration

Instead of manually pasting cookies into every run, use the Cookie Manager actor to capture and store session cookies in a shared Key-Value store. Then reference them by key:

{
  "cookieStorageKey": "facebook-myaccount",
  "cookieKvStoreName": "cookie-sessions",
  "pageUrl": "https://facebook.com/yourbusiness",
  "message": "Hello from automation!"
}

How it works:

1. Run the Cookie Manager actor to capture your Facebook session cookies
2. It stores them in a named KV store (default: cookie-sessions) under your chosen key
3. Pass cookieStorageKey to this actor -- cookies load automatically
4. No need to re-export cookies from Cookie-Editor every time they expire

Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
cookieStorageKey	string	-	Key in the KV store to load cookies from
cookieKvStoreName	string	cookie-sessions	Name of the KV store holding cookie sessions

Note: If both cookies and cookieStorageKey are provided, manual cookies take priority.
