⬇️ Input Format

{

}

Locations don’t need exact formatting — city names, neighborhoods, or city–state combinations work as long as Leafly can resolve them.

⚙️ Execution & Reliability Notes

• The actor runs at a controlled pace to minimize rate limits (429s) and blocking.
• Additional requests are used to initialize sessions and resolve dispensary listings reliably.
• Dispensaries are processed individually with built-in retries and defensive handling.
• This design trades some speed for higher success rates, cleaner data, and predictable execution.
