Take one dataset on Apify platform, compare it to another, and output the missing ones. This can also be used to output only changed items, using a compound key
You can access the Diff Datasets programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.

5const client = new ApifyClient({
6 token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});

12// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
13const run = await client.actor("pocesar/diff-datasets").call(input);

15// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
16console.log('Results from dataset');
