  • id_project_gutenberg
  • id_librivox

Input

Configure the run with these options (all optional -- leave blank to fetch everything):

  • Search query — Search term used to filter results, for example a name, title, or keyword. The actor returns records matching this text. Leave blank to fetch a default sample.
  • Language — Optional filter on 'language' (for example 'ara'). Leave blank for no filter.
  • Maximum results — cap how many records to return.

How to use

  1. Click Start (or call the Actor via the Apify API or a client SDK).
  2. Set any filters you need and run it.
  3. Download the results as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the run's dataset.
