Persistent url

Every actor starts with public URL which is different for every run. You can use rebrand.ly app to have a persistent URL. Actor is prepared to update your rebrand.ly with every start. Just add this to the input:

1{
2     "rebrandly": {
3         "id": "LinkId",
4         "apiKey": "YourApiKey",
5         "workspace": "YourWorkspaceId",
6         "title": "My cool dashboard"
7     },
8     ...
9 }

Storing data

Webhooks can be used to store dataset statistics or call store task using Apify.call directly from your actor. Use following input for storing a dataset info manually:

1{
2    "task": "store",
3    "name": "actor-name",
4    "datasetId": "datasetId",
5    "chartId": "my-chart-1",
6    "color": "#0084d5",
7}
  • name - string - a name of actor or site it crawles.
  • datasetId - string - an id of dataset
  • chartId - string - an id of a chart
  • color - optional string - what color (in hex format) should be used to display data. If not set some color will be picked randomly.

Using webhooks to store data

Just create a webhook under your actor or task for Run succeeded event. Set the url to start dashboard task. Actor will open default dataset of finished run and collect its statistics.

You can add a custom name to the payload template as "name": "hackernews.com". If there is no name set, then dashboard will lookup actor name and use that as a name for data line. Same with color or chartId attributes.
