For public concerns, I replaced with XXXXXXXXXXXX Always errors out before getting all reviews for a place with 540 reviews. Using max of 4096 memory. Using US Residential Proxy. Any ideas?

Update - seems there is a 60-second built-in timeout error being thrown (ignoring my setting of 3600 for the overall process). It only ever gets a partial set of reviews, then repeats itself, instead of starting from the last processed review. So, we need to increase whatever is causing the 60 second timeout, or the config needs to be updated to resume from the last review it successfully processed.

And it should not be reporting success in this case. However your actor is reporting success, so it is very hard to know when errors are occurring.

hello developer? We are paying for an actor, 5 days without support is absurd

I was on a trial. If you guys can fix it, and reset my trial, so I can verify before subscribing?

I went ahead and paid for it... please fix the 60 second timeout internal to the process.

I just realized we dont have review date. Is that something not possible to get?

Review date isn't present on the page so it's not possible to scrape. You could approximate it using time elapsed - that will be more accurate for recent reviews, but the longer ago the review was left, the less accurate it'll be.

This has been corrected and the default 60 second timeout that Apify applies has been overridden. I've just checked it with a replication of the run that failed for you; it's no longer timing out, and all reviews are fetched. Please be cautious with setting a very high number of max reviews, since you could have a very long-running process.

Ok, this is fixed. Thank you.
