I very often get incomplete audio-data from the scraper

Please take a look at 2 results of instagram audio-track with the same parameters:

The first one is incomplete: https://console.apify.com/actors/runs/LefeYUKzAb8ug415D#output

The second is complete: https://console.apify.com/actors/runs/pQNuQp1EdZ0DXt2c1#output (contains item with audio-data)

I just re-ran the incomplete query again and got the complete data. Please tell me why this happens and how to avoid it?

Hi!

Its correct Instagram logic, actor just following it: media items returned per country and country determined by IP, i.e. https://www.instagram.com/reels/audio/396231407646579/ for Thailand displaying single media item (see screen attached) and sample run also getting single media item: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/LdpbyI0O821yI4XFu

Please note that you need to specify proxy json input value with country as in sample run if you want to get the same results without different media items array for different (random) IP addresses. However media details always the same, so difference only for amount of referenced media items.

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

How to specify proxy option? Where to see the documentation? And do I need to buy "Proxy" at https://console.apify.com/proxy page?
