Permission Denied when using API but ok using tasks

Hi, thanks for opening this issue!

Can you share the code for your integration? This looks like an issue with the token... Are you using the correct Personal API token from the https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations tab? The 403 error is often thrown if you've just forgot to include the token.

Thanks!

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; import fs from 'fs'; import path from 'path'; import XLSX from 'xlsx';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_API_TOKEN, });

// Prepare Actor input const input = { "locationFullName": "São Paulo", "maxItemsPerQuery": 15, "includeTags": true, "includeNearbyResults": false, "includeAttractions": true, "includeRestaurants": true, "includeHotels": true, "includeVacationRentals": false, "checkInDate": "", "checkOutDate": "", "includePriceOffers": false, "includeAiReviewsSummary": false, "language": "pt", "currency": "BRL" };

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish try { const run = await client.actor("maxcopell/tripadvisor").call(input);

1// Fetch Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
2console.log('Results from dataset');
3console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
4const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
5items.forEach((item) => {
6    const timestamp = new Date().toISOString().replace(/[-:]/g, '').replace('T', '_').split('.')[0];
7    const jsonFileName = `export/json/${item.id}_${timestamp}.json`;
8    const excelFileName = `export/excel/${item.id}_${timestamp}.xlsx`;
9
10    // Create directories if they do not exist
11    if (!fs.existsSync('export/json')) {
12        fs.mkdirSync('export/json', { recursive: true });
13    }
14    if (!fs.existsSync('export/excel')) {
15        fs.mkdirSync('export/excel', { recursive: true });
16    }
17
18    // Save JSON file
19    fs.writeFileSync(jsonFileName, JSON.stringify(item, null, 2));
20
21    // Convert JSON to Excel and save it
22    const workbook = XLSX.utils.book_new();
23    const worksheet = XLSX.utils.json_to_sheet([item]);
24    XLSX.utils.book_append_sheet(workbook, worksheet, 'Data');
25    XLSX.writeFile(workbook, excelFileName);
26
27    console.log(`Saved data for ${item.name} to JSON and Excel files.`);
28});

} catch (error) { console.error('Erro ao executar o ator:', error); }

Thanks for providing the code! It looks good, but the process.env.APIFY_API_TOKEN value could still be undefined, which would cause the 403 error.

Could you try attaching this at the start of the file?

1if (!process.env.APIFY_API_TOKEN) {
2    throw new Error('process.env.APIFY_API_TOKEN is not defined');
3}

This will fail the code if the, if the variable is undefined. Let me know the outcome :)
