# Archive a crypto news channel for one week

**Use case:** 

Collect a single week of Cointelegraph posts: text, links, views, media and forward headers, with the date window sought directly in the channel history so nothing outside 8 to 14 September is delivered or charged. The channel summary tells you whether the window was covered in full or the cap was hit first. Change the dates and re-run for any week you need.

## Input

```json
{
  "channels": [
    "cointelegraph"
  ],
  "postsFrom": "2026-09-08",
  "postsTo": "2026-09-14",
  "maxPostsPerChannel": 30,
  "includeChannelInfo": true,
  "oldestFirst": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/automation_craft/telegram-channel-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
