Without input

GET 

/v2/acts/:actorId/run-sync

Runs a specific Actor and returns its output. The run must finish in 300 seconds otherwise the API endpoint returns a timeout error. The Actor is not passed any input.

Beware that it might be impossible to maintain an idle HTTP connection for a long period of time, due to client timeout or network conditions. Make sure your HTTP client is configured to have a long enough connection timeout. If the connection breaks, you will not receive any information about the run and its status.

To run the Actor asynchronously, use the Run Actor API endpoint instead.

Request

Path Parameters

    actorId string required

    Actor ID or a tilde-separated owner's username and Actor name.


    Example: janedoe~my-actor

Query Parameters

    outputRecordKey string

    Key of the record from run's default key-value store to be returned in the response. By default, it is OUTPUT.


    Example: OUTPUT
    timeout double

    Optional timeout for the run, in seconds. By default, the run uses a timeout specified in the default run configuration for the Actor.


    Example: 60
    memory double

    Memory limit for the run, in megabytes. The amount of memory can be set to a power of 2 with a minimum of 128. By default, the run uses a memory limit specified in the default run configuration for the Actor.


    Example: 256
    maxItems double

    Specifies the maximum number of dataset items that will be charged for pay-per-result Actors. This does NOT guarantee that the Actor will return only this many items. It only ensures you won't be charged for more than this number of items. Only works for pay-per-result Actors. Value can be accessed in the actor run using ACTOR_MAX_PAID_DATASET_ITEMS environment variable.


    Example: 1000
    maxTotalChargeUsd double

    Specifies the maximum cost of the run. This parameter is useful for pay-per-event Actors, as it allows you to limit the amount charged to your subscription. You can access the maximum cost in your Actor by using the ACTOR_MAX_TOTAL_CHARGE_USD environment variable.


    Example: 5
    restartOnError boolean

    Determines whether the run will be restarted if it fails.


    Example: false
    build string

    Specifies the Actor build to run. It can be either a build tag or build number. By default, the run uses the build specified in the default run configuration for the Actor (typically latest).


    Example: 0.1.234
    webhooks string

    Specifies optional webhooks associated with the Actor run, which can be used to receive a notification e.g. when the Actor finished or failed. The value is a Base64-encoded JSON array of objects defining the webhooks. For more information, see Webhooks documentation.
