Run ID: pPWXjIOYe9lJoGffT - Empty result set
Closed
Hey there,
Another problematic run. 6 input URL, no result.
Could you take a look on this too, please?
--
In the end of logs it says:
WARN This run was very slow compared to the amount of results returned. WARN We are happy to share our scrapper actor with the community but it has to be somehow profitable for us too... WARN In order to not loose money with this run, we are going to add 2 empty videos to the results to compensate for the CPU cost. WARN Thank you for your understanding.
So basically Apify charges me for the actor not giving back any result, nice...

you have not shared the run, so I can't see it, even if you provide the id. Share the problematic run, and I will investigate.
Regarding the fact that you are paying despite you didn't get any output, is because it's the only fair way I found to offer this scrapping service. Errors happen... sometime youtube is blocking the connections, or has issues... I don't see any reason why I should pay the CPU in those cases. The price you pay in such cases is nothing else than the price I have to pay to apify for using CPU. If you are not happy with this way of working feel free to use another scrapper.

Fair enough.
I'm not sure how else I can share it than providing the ID.
This should be enough to see the run (at least I can see it even in incognito window): https://console.apify.com/view/runs/pPWXjIOYe9lJoGffT
I gave it a try with the same input parameters, and I've got results: https://console.apify.com/actors/tasks/LC9QHgUHVoTrogEjR/runs/SaJPCcehJ1KMThbZc#log
Looks like a temporary failure (might be due to an apify IP banned from youtube).
I don't have real solution to offer here.

Alright, thank you.
