FAQ

Does this scraper use cookies or API keys? No. OSS Insight serves an unauthenticated public REST API.

Will the actor work on the Apify free plan? Yes. No proxy is required — the API is reachable from any datacenter IP.

How fresh is the data? OSS Insight refreshes its underlying GitHub event data continuously; trending endpoints typically reflect activity within the last hour.

Can I filter by category? Yes. Run mode=listCollections once to enumerate every collection ID, then pass that ID with mode=byCollection. Common IDs include 2 (Open Source Database), 10010 (Artificial Intelligence), 10004 (Web Framework), 10024 (Programming Language).

What about deleted or private repos? OSS Insight only indexes public GitHub repositories; deleted repos drop out automatically.

Can I use this for competitive intelligence on dev-tools companies? Yes — pairing byCollection with a period window lets you see week-over-week or month-over-month growth, which is a strong leading indicator of category momentum.
