## Changelog

### 2026-10-20

- New option, **Only new messages**: a scheduled run, or a re-run of the same task, returns only the messages it has not returned before. Skipped messages are neither saved nor charged; each new message is charged as usual.
- A run that gets close to its time limit now stops in time to save, and charge, every message it already got. Its status says the time limit stopped it, and how to raise it.
- Default runs now get 1 hour before they time out, so a run with the default settings is no longer cut short.
- A run started with no input now runs the sample: up to 500 messages each from @durov and @telegram, charged as usual.
- The dataset opens on a short Overview table of the main fields. Every field is one click away under All fields.
- Every input field now says what it accepts, its limit and default, and gives an example.
- Lower prices on Apify's paid plans: $0.45, $0.40 and $0.35 per 1,000 messages on Bronze, Silver and Gold.
- Runs use 1 GB of memory by default and at most 2 GB.

### 2026-10-18

- First release: a public Telegram channel's messages, newest first, back to its first post, from usernames or t.me links. Each message comes with its text (plain and HTML), date, type, views, every reaction, photos, videos, files, polls, link previews, forwards and replies, plus the channel's title, description, the links in it and its subscriber count. Optional date window. $0.50 per 1,000 messages.
