Seem to be getting more failures
Closed
e.g.:
and how can one tell if there is anything wrong with the linkedin cookie being passed, e.g. the cookie is expired?
setlateral
strange, now it is working again apparently i changed nothing, not even the cookie, perhaps it was having a problem with specific companies on linkedin, not sure
setlateral
if it helps you, I got another deeper exception, unrelated to the first:
setlateral
another type of exception:
Looking into the issue, most of them seem to be proxy related
Will check with the support team
setlateral
thanks

what is a safe number of companies to send in a batch considering the use of my own cookie and the processing required? and for the batch what is the memory and other requirements for the batch run? I have read the apify docs but the batch and cookie aspects add a little unknowns
Great feedback, we added to our todo to update all our actors information to answer those question
In your case , for this actor, you can use minimum memory settings at 1024 (lesser the memory settings, lesser the cost to run on apify infra) because we don't implement high scale parallel requests; we are using cookie session so we want to be slow
Your cookie session might not be valid at some point during the process, so smaller the batch, lesser annoying stuff to handle with run stopping in the middle

ok thanks, I am doing only 10 companies at a time, i have upgraded my Apify subscription to Scale and trying again. I have shared all runs with you for this Agent (I think)
setlateral
I am still getting very inconsistent results, mostly I get failures, leading to wasted processing time and credit on my Apify plan. I am also getting this error again:
I have given you access to all my 779 runs of this actor, I am hoping this helps you understand, either fix or help me set up my runs better.
my success rate is around 10% for the linked in companies I have tried so far
We updated the actor
Thank you for sharing your runs , it helps us error proofing our solution
At first we only tested on big companies that always have insight linkedin, most of your companies don't have insights or very low informations
We also updated the error message to ask you explicitly to update your cookie session
setlateral
awesome, will give it another run, thanks for the quick turn-around
setlateral
i will try again tomorrow it seems i have hit a limit on linked in
Good to know, do you see that on your last run ?
Will try to replicate the error and return an explicit error like for cookie session not being valid anymore
setlateral
I am running again now that my daily company viewing limit on linkedin is reset (tested interactively for browsing success)
We're getting better success rates but there are still errors intermittently, if you able to view the exceptions in the runs for today, perhaps you can find more ways to ensure the actor is more robust?
We updated the actor and fixed 2 errors
It would also help if when having the daily limit reached, if you could run 1 last time with updated valid cookies that we can reuse to test ourself and implement an explicit error for daily limit reached
thank you for your help
setlateral
Great, thanks, it is run again now, I will report back after a few batches
setlateral
Looking better, I will inspect results closer soon
