Too many repeated posts in scraper results

Closed

Hi!

It looks like the scraper is retrieving a lot of repeated posts. In fact, over 80 posts have been captured more than seven times, as shown in the image.

Out of the 1,572 posts scraped, only 375 were actually unique. Also, all the posts being scraped are sponsored, while the non-sponsored ones, which are the most important, are not being captured.

Could you help with this matter? Thanks!

Hi!

Bug is confirmed, looks like only happening for reels and somehow specific to the hashtag itself. Regular posts scraped properly: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/EC2hunrTWCpRTRssU

Will keep you informed about the progress.

Hi!

Fixed in the latest version: For hashtag reels, the max results might be very limited. In the current version, the internal hard data limit is handled correctly (not saving duplicates, not paginating on duplicates).

I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we can help with, please let us know.

Hi,

Thanks for the update. In the previous build, we were retrieving around 7,000 posts (with 1,649 being unique), while the latest build only returns 31. Could you help me understand why the output is now so limited as you mentioned?

We’ll probably keep using the previous build for now, as the reduced number of posts is major limitation for our campaign, participants are posting new reels daily. However, the pricing on the older build is starting to get a bit high, so we’re hoping for a more efficient solution.

Do you plan to improve or expand this functionality in a future update?

Thanks in advance
