Frequently asked questions

Why use Bing? Bing is Microsoft's search engine and the second-largest search engine in the world. It often returns different results than Google, giving you a wider variety of websites and perspectives.

How do I get the results? Your results are saved in your Apify dashboard. You can download them in various formats (JSON, CSV, Excel) or access them via the API.

Can I run it on a schedule? Yes! Apify supports scheduled runs. You can set up the tool to run automatically at any interval (hourly, daily, weekly, etc.) from your dashboard.

What if I get fewer results than I asked for? This can happen if the search engine doesn't have enough matching results for your search, or if some results are blocked. Try different keywords or relax your filters.
