Extracted fields

Each record includes the Slashdot story ID, title, story URL, linked source URL/domain, Slashdot author, posted time, department, topic, comment count, visible summary/body, tags, input section/keyword, and scrape timestamp.

Input examples

{
  "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://tech.slashdot.org/" }],
  "maxResults": 25,
  "maxPages": 3
}

For a section feed, omit startUrls and set sections to values such as tech, news, yro, or science. For the public story archive, use searchKeywords, for example ["artificial intelligence"]. Direct slashdot.org/story/... URLs are supported.

Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. These are the current Apify Store event prices:

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
`slashdot-story`	$0.005	Slashdot story — One unique, schema-valid public Slashdot story record written to the default dataset.
`apify-actor-start`	$0.00005	Actor Start — Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). — Charged once per run.

Apify platform usage for this Actor run is included alongside the event prices above; no separate per-run platform-usage fee is passed to users.

This covers Apify platform usage for this Actor run. Other Apify products or usage outside this Actor run may still follow your account plan.

Reliability and limits

The Actor uses direct public HTML with bounded concurrency, retries, page limits, and a configurable delay. It does not bypass login walls, CAPTCHAs, or access controls. An empty result is reported as an empty run, while request failures are included in the OUTPUT key-value record and terminal status.

Compliance

Use this Actor only with public pages and in accordance with Slashdot's terms, robots guidance, and applicable law. Review source-site rights before storing or republishing article text.
