🧪 Troubleshooting (You Rarely Need This)

• The Actor is built to handle transient issues, including occasional failed requests or network hiccups.

• Failed requests are automatically retried using a smart exponential backoff strategy.

• Proper proxy rotation and session management ensure that data extraction remains consistent and uninterrupted.

• What this means for you: occasional warnings in logs are normal and do not indicate a failure — the Actor will continue fetching until the requested data is collected or retries are exhausted.
