OpenAlex Scraper OpenAPI definition

You can start OpenAlex Scraper with the Apify API by sending an HTTP POST request to the Run Actorendpoint. An Actor’s input and its content type can be passed as a payload of the POST request, and additional options can be specified using URL query parameters. The OpenAlex Scraper is identified within the API by its ID, which is the creator’s username and the name of the Actor.

When the OpenAlex Scraper run finishes you can list the data from its default dataset(storage) via the API or you can preview the data directly on Apify Console.
