List and read threads from 5ch (formerly 2channel), Japan's largest text forum.
What to collect. 'board-threads' = list the active thread list for a board (titles + post counts + URLs) from subject.txt — best for trend / buzz monitoring. 'thread-posts' = read every post in one thread (supply threadUrl) — best for sentiment, RAG corpora and full-text mining. 'search' = list a board's threads then keep only those whose title contains your keyword.
5ch board slug to read (used by board-threads and search). Examples: 'newsplus' (ニュース速報+, the main news board), 'news4vip' (ニュー速VIP), 'mnewsplus' (芸スポ速報+ / entertainment & sports), 'seijinewsplus' (政治ニュース+ / politics). The actor resolves the board's server automatically from the live 5ch board directory (bbsmenu).
Full 5ch thread URL to read posts from, e.g. https://asahi.5ch.net/test/read.cgi/newsplus/1781497598/ . Required when mode='thread-posts'. You can get these URLs from a board-threads run (thread_url field).
When mode='search', keep only threads whose title contains this string (case-insensitive substring match). Japanese or English. Ignored in other modes.
Hard cap on records returned per run. In board-threads/search mode each record is a thread; in thread-posts mode each record is a single post. 15-50 is typical for monitoring; a busy thread can have 1000+ posts.
Apify proxy. 5ch is open over plain HTTP, so the default datacenter Apify Proxy is fine. Add a Japan-egress / residential group if you hit occasional rate-limiting on heavy runs.
{ "useApifyProxy": true}Optional. Connect your Notion workspace and the results are also written as a Notion page in the same run — the Actor never sees your Notion credentials. Authorize a Notion MCP connector in Apify Console → Settings → API & Integrations, then select it here.
Optional. The Notion page ID to create the page under. If blank, Notion creates a private page in your workspace.
Optional. Connect your own Supabase project and the results are also inserted into a table in the same run — the Actor never sees your Supabase credentials. Authorize a write-scoped, project-scoped Supabase MCP connector in Apify Console (Settings -> Integrations), then select it here.
Target table in the public schema (created if missing, with id, a jsonb data column, and a scraped_at timestamp). Default: nexgendata_leads.
Your Supabase project reference (e.g. abcdefghijklmnop). Required unless your connector URL is already project-scoped. Find it in your project URL: supabase.com/dashboard/project/THIS_PART.
