Actor Build Starter
No credit card required
Run builds for multiple actors in your account simultaneously. This can be useful when many actors in a given project have been updated. For example, the documentation might have been updated in 50 actors. This tool will help you trigger actor builds for all 50 at once.
You can access the Actor Build Starter programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, youβll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
2
3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
5const client = new ApifyClient({
6 token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});
8
9// Prepare Actor input
10const input = {
11 "actorNameContains": "my-awesome",
12 "actorIds": [
13 "abc123",
14 "abc123"
15 ]
16};
17
18// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
19const run = await client.actor("fjvs0283/actor-batch-builder").call(input);
20
21// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
22console.log('Results from dataset');
23console.log(`πΎ Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
24const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
25items.forEach((item) => {
26 console.dir(item);
