Example Live View

apify/example-live-view

This actor serves as an example of a crawling run using the Live View feature. It crawls through Hacker News page by page and you may inspect any of the pages' screenshot or HTML in the Live View panel.

You need to have an Apify account with an API token.

  1. To run the actor from your program externally, copy-paste the code below into your program (based on programming language)

  2. Replace <YOUR_API_TOKEN> with your own token (you can find it here)

const Apify = require('Apify');

Apify.client.setOptions({ token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' });

const run = await Apify.call('apify/example-live-view', { });

console.log('Actor finished, here is the output:');
console.dir(run.output);
