Good to know
- PubMed returns at most 9,999 results per search. Use a date range to split larger searches.
- The Actor never fails on a bad or empty input. It finishes with a clear message in the run status explaining what to change.
- Results are saved while the run is going, so you can open the dataset before it finishes.
