Can't export bios
Closed
Hi Apify team,
At times, there's an issue where certain fields can't be found/exported. In this case it's with the 'bio' field. I find that running the sane inputs again does the trick, but it does eat into my usage limits. Any reason why this happens?
Hi!
In your run I see cases like https://www.instagram.com/dbongino where bio just not provided and https://www.instagram.com/digitalbossladyincome or https://www.instagram.com/digital.marketing.sis when Profile isn't available
Can you please provide a direct example when the bio is missing in 1 run and scraped in another?

What I mean is, when I try to export the bios, it doesn't have it available. It asks to create a new field. Sometimes I can redo the run (with the same input data) and it works.
Hi!
Thanks, clear now.
It is a known platform UI glitch - if some records do not have a value, it will not be available as the autofill in the export data dialog.
Please just use the full name "biography" then "Create biography" if necessary, or add it manually to the direct dataset URL https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/xHghL7dGRIV6Yc5nj/items?clean=true&fields=biography&format=json (note fields=biography option)
The actor can not change the way how the dataset export works in any case.
Hope for understanding.
I will close the issue now, but if there is anything else we can help with, please let us know.

Ok thanks a lot!
