"Only freelancers located in the U.S. may apply."

Any way to add proxies to this scraper? I'm not in the US but all the listings being returned (well, what feels like 95%) are for US-based freelancers; I can't apply to these jobs. I don't see any proxy options here in the console and trying to use them by setting Apify proxies via the API doesn't seem to work either. Possible to fix or no?

Hey man, adding proxies is on the roadmap but not a high priority right now. Though I don't think that using different proxies would result in different job postings. Have you tried crafting your own custom search URL with Upwork filters and adding cookies?

Yeah, I tried that but the same result. Avoiding cookie use as I don't want to risk my account (TOS etc). Seems like if proxies etc. aren't an option in the actor on the platform, they are also not an option in the API. The only solution I can find to this is to go to source tab and fork/clone and then add whatever options I want/need. Problem is, I don't see those on the menu - I assume they are creator-only options which is fair enough.
I hate to do this, but may I ask for a refund? Happy to do partial and pay for usage so far to be fair. The actor is great otherwise. Returns jobs I'd love to do, but can't because of of the US-only thing. Been trying for a day and done about 20 runs with no luck so far as results are concerned. Maybe 5 jobs our of ~200. Comparing my actual job feed with the scrapers (same URL) it's almost completely a different set of results. Let me know anyway - I'm ceasing use as of now since I rented this to save time and obviously, clicking through hundreds of jobs I'm ineligible for isn't achieving this goal.

I hear you man no worries at all. The refunds are handled by Apify themselves though so I think you'd need to contact support and they can further assist you about that.
