What data does it extract?
For each embassy/consulate, the Actor extracts wait times across 4 visa categories:

|---|---|
| B1/B2 (Tourism/Business) | Average wait time + Next available appointment |
| F, M, J (Student/Exchange) | Next available appointment |
| H, L, O, P, Q (Employment) | Next available appointment |
| C, D, C1/D (Crew/Transit) | Next available appointment |
Output example
{"city": "London","visaCategory": "B1/B2","waitType": "Next Available Appointment","waitTime": "3 Months","waitTimeMonths": 3,"scrapedAt": "2026-02-18T05:47:13.256Z","sourceUrl": "https://travel.state.gov/..."}
Each run produces ~1,200 records covering all 243 locations and all visa categories.
