Getting 403 - request blocked
I've tried several times to use this actor, both via the web interface and also through the Apify API where I used Apify's residential proxies, but each time I get the same errors in the log:

Hi, yes, something is not right, we will look into it
owl_capone
Any update?

The website started to block heavily, it will take some time to make the scraper work again, a week maybe as we are pretty busy now. I will let you know once there is something new. Thank you!

Any progress on this? I would love to use this if it worked. Thank you.

Hi there, unfortunately not yet as we had to prioritize other actors, but I will push it through.
