Hi!

Thanks a lot for feedback, you scraped personal profile and actor currently supports only page reviews.

For profile its different data feed https://www.facebook.com/ebrahimmamdouh.bakir/reviews ("Reviews given") and for this exact profile reviews section is not available without login as well, so error is logically correct.

We might add support for profile reviews in the future, for right now please be aware that attempt to get reviews for profile instead of page will always lead to error.

Hi! Thank you for you clarification, i think sending task failed is good for this case instead of succeed. succeed should contains only the expected data.

Hi!

Thanks for pointing out, need to think about it since current general approach is to fail only when error is fatal and run can not be continued. That's why if data is not available and data error recognized as such by actor logic outcome is to save error item in dataset instead of failing entire run.
