FAQ

Is a result guaranteed to be complete? Each result carries the date it was read. If the upstream service is down the run fails with a clear message and no per-result charge is made.

Can I call it from code or an AI agent? Yes: run it through the Apify API, schedule it, or use it from MCP clients that support Apify Actors.

Is this affiliated with the data source? No. Source names are used descriptively; each result keeps its source attribution and licence line.

Where do I report a problem? Open an issue on this Actor's page; replies are written by the Ambolt service team, usually within a day.
