RE: Limited to 5 results & they're not Reels

For some reason, I cannot comment on the last thread...

Thanks Alexey. Seems to work with your example but when I use another username 'ionsync' and ask for 10 results I only get 5 and they seem to be stories. They have a lot of reels there.

Hi Adam! Just make sure that max results is set to some big number, actor getting both Stories and Highlights (named as ReelVideo and HighlightReel in dataset) because input already too complex, we can not separate more data types by input without confusion to end users. Here sample run for ionsync https://console.apify.com/view/runs/yVRqjAb2x3GhkAsaL - 89 results

Yoyo Alexey, thanks again for taking a look. I'm still hitting the same problem. I set it to 500 like your example. I also ran the actor in Incognito to make sure there wasn't anything interfering. Let me know if I can give you any further insights 👍

Looking at the log it seems that the crawler is being blocked?

Hey, can you try again? I got to 231 with different input. https://console.apify.com/view/runs/q7byql0OliSDiGmMR
