publisher_platforms string is iterated into individual characters
Closed
Description
sql

What happened
When I set "publisher_platforms": "facebook" in the input JSON, the scraper’s logs show:
…&publisher_platform=f,a,c,e,b,o,o,k…
yaml Kopiér Rediger
instead of the expected:
…&publisher_platform=facebook…
csharp Kopiér Rediger
Because the code treats the string as an iterable and pushes each character, no valid platform is matched and zero ads are returned.
What I expected
Passing "publisher_platforms": "facebook" should result in a single query parameter publisher_platform=facebook, returning only Facebook ads.
Reproduction steps
- Run actor with input:
{"active_status": "active","ad_type": "all","country_name": "United Kingdom GB","keyword": "real estate","maxitems": 3,"media_type": "all","publisher_platforms": "facebook","start_date_min": "2025-03-05","start_date_max": "2025-03-18"}
Observe the run logs: publisher_platform=f,a,c,e,b,o,o,k
No ads are returned.
Suggested fix In the request-building code, wrap input.publisher_platforms into an array if it’s a string:
js Kopiér Rediger const platforms = Array.isArray(input.publisher_platforms) ? input.publisher_platforms : [input.publisher_platforms]; for (const p of platforms) { params.publisher_platform.push(p); }
