🔧 Troubleshooting

• Getting Few Results? Check "Maximum number of items on output" (maxItems) field. This field enables you to control the total number of results. Leaving it empty will result in unlimited results.
• Are Some Outputs Missing? Ensure that you review all fields, not just the overview. You can navigate to the "Storage" tab and select either "Download the results" or "Open in a New Tab."
• Getting No Results? Confirm that your hashtag exists and has public content. Private or restricted hashtags may not return results.
• Not Receiving New Items After a Large Batch? Examine the log for messages like "Logging is too fast, some lines were skipped." If you encounter this issue, consider scraping smaller amounts of data to avoid it.
