Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check your filters. If you set a ticker that does not exist or activeOnly to true when no markets are active, you will get an empty dataset. Try removing filters or setting a broader ticker.
Why am I getting only 10 results?
Free users are limited to 10 items. Upgrade to a paid plan to increase maxItems.
Why is the run failing?
Check the run log for errors. The dYdX API might be temporarily unavailable. Retry after a few minutes.
Can I get more than 1,000,000 markets?
No, the maximum is 1,000,000. If you need more, consider splitting your request by ticker or other criteria.
The data seems outdated.
The scraper fetches live data on each run. If you need fresh data, run it again or schedule it more frequently.
