Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that your filter values are spelled correctly and that the combination of filters does not conflict. If you are using a search query, it overrides city, state, type, and country filters.
Why did my run stop after only 10 items?
Free Apify accounts are limited to 10 items as a preview. Upgrade to a paid plan to increase the "Max Items" limit up to 1,000,000.
I filtered by state but got breweries from other states.
The "By State" filter is designed for US states. For international locations, use the "By Country" filter instead.
The search query is not returning the brewery I expected.
The search query performs a broad text match. Try using a more specific term or a partial name. If you know the exact city or state, use the location filters for a more precise match.
