Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check your filters. If you entered a case number, make sure it is the full 20-digit unified number. If you used a class name, try a broader partial match. Also verify the selected tribunal.
The run is slow or times out.
Reduce maxItems or narrow your filters. The CNJ index can be large, and querying many cases may take time.
I get an error about invalid tribunal.
Select a tribunal from the dropdown list in the input. The actor only accepts the aliases listed in the enum.
The output is missing some fields.
The CNJ index may not have all fields for every case. The actor returns whatever is available in the public data.
Can I search by party name or lawyer?
No, this actor only supports filtering by tribunal, case number, and class name. For party or lawyer search, consider a different actor like the Brazil Court Scraper by Jungle Synthesizer.
