To run the code examples, you need to have an Apify account. Replace <YOUR_API_TOKEN> in the code with your API token. For a more detailed explanation, please read about running Actors via the API in Apify Docs.

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with API token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "startUrls": [
        {
            "url": "https://www.rottentomatoes.com/browse/movies_in_theaters/ratings:nc_17,pg,pg_13,r~sort:popular"
        }
    ],
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true
    },
    "maxItems": 1000,
    "extendOutputFunction": ($, item) => { return {} }
};

(async () => {
    // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
    const run = await client.actor("binhbui/rotten-extractor").call(input);

    // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
    console.log('Results from dataset');
    const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
    items.forEach((item) => {
        console.dir(item);
    });
})();
