Actor for calling other Actors with dynamic input
You can access the Dynamic Input programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
2
3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
5const client = new ApifyClient({
6 token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});
8
9// Prepare Actor input
10const input = {
11 "input": `// Available packages:
12 // - Apify Actor - https://docs.apify.com/sdk/js/reference/class/Actor
13 // - example:
14 // await Actor.pushData({ my : 'data'});
15 // - Axios - https://axios-http.com/
16 // - example:
17 // log.info(`Current IP is: ${(await Axios.get('https://ipinfo.io/json')).data.ip}`)
18 // - Moment.js - https://momentjs.com/
19 // - example:
20 // log.info(`Tomorrow is: ${moment().add(1, 'day').toISOString()}`)

24 return {
25 minWaitTime: waitTime,
26 maxWaitTime: waitTime + 2_000
27 }`,
28 "proxyConfiguration": {
29 "useApifyProxy": true
30 }
31};
32
33// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
34const run = await client.actor("useful-tools/dynamic-input").call(input);
35
36// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
37console.log('Results from dataset');
38console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
39const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
40items.forEach((item) => {
41 console.dir(item);
42});
