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
12// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
13const run = await client.actor("apify/example-web-server").call(input);
14
15// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
16console.log('Results from dataset');
17console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
18const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
