Specifying which fields I want returned?

The scraper returns a lot of fields, but i only need the caption, username and date. Is it possible to only have it fetch these 3 instead of the several fields it returns, for simplicity and efficiency?

Hi! Its expected to be resolved by platform "Export dataset" feature-dialog, not by logic in actor.

I.e. from you your latest run https://console.apify.com/view/runs/zsJnzvPhRa2cyixri subset with 3 values available as https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/jQ7Dhdfz8niYevuum/items?clean=true&fields=caption,ownerUsername,timestamp&format=json

For other runs just replace dataset ID "jQ7Dhdfz8niYevuum" to dataset ID from run or click "Export results" and choose format and values.

I´m going to close the issue now, but if there would be anything else we could help with, please let us know.
