Hi Apify team, question on the Instagram

Anyone knows if there is a difference

Anyone knows if there is a difference between puppeteer’s evaluate() and chromium’s devtool console? I am currently scraping a site and doing a fetch api manually via the devtool console works perfectly, but im being blocked when using puppeteer’s evaluate(), despite using the same fetch function. Wonder if anyone could help me with this?

I'd like to understand the free tier.

I'd like to understand the free tier. The pricing page implies the $15 credit can be used for any of the cost items, but then on sign up it says "proxy trial", suggesting that the proxies are only available for a short time. But the whole point is to be a proxy so how does it work without one?

Problem

Can you provide me with more details about the specific issues you're facing? What API are you trying to integrate, and what problems have you encountered so far?

is it possible to configure the use of

is it possible to configure the use of Actor RAM. Still, the impossibility of running two processes at the same time was related to this. Can this be configured for an already existing apify/web-scraper??? s it possible to set a limit? Is there a usage limit? for example, if we have 32 gigabytes of Ram and set the limit to 4, to be sure that I can definitely run 8 processes in parallel. I will be very grateful for your help

Scaling Playwright Crawler on GCP Cloud Run

Yo everyone. Starting to try and hit my crawler with some real load. Playwright setup in GCP Cloud Run... do you think a tonne of info logs I haven't cleaned up could be impacting performance? If so that's my lowest hanging fruit 😂 Otherwise should I skip to looking at parallelization? What is performance like using lots of average/small/cheap instances versus overprovisioning a single cloud run instance and smacking it with load?...

Hi folks need a little dev help. I am

Hi folks need a little dev help. I am basically performing some actions on a webpage. I want the actions to be performed only when the page is fully loaded. I have tried other ways such as window.document('') and other mentioned on stackoverflow but none worked for me. Need a little help. this is the below classname that is visible when the page is fuly loaded so my ideaa over here is to wait untill this className is present inside the DOM if it's present meaning the page is loaded and if not then it's not loaded
datatable-body
datatable-body
this is the classname...
