Figure Unit Consumption

The actor augmented to run quickly and extract many listings as possible. If the actor doesn't slab very often it'll extract 100 listings within 2 minutes having ~0.01-0.02 compute units. So, it leads all the listing information requests.

Example:

In the Program Run

In the run, an actor would output messages to tell you what is happening. Every message always has a shorter label requiring which page from the given list is presently specified. While items get loaded from a page, you need to see messages about the event having loaded item counts and total item count for every page.

If you offer incorrect inputs to an actor, this will directly stop with the failure position and output explanation about what is getting wrong.

App Store Transfer

During this run, an actor stores the results in a dataset. Every item is a specific item in a dataset.

You could organize results in a language (Node JS/NPM, Python, PHP).

Extracted Apps Store Media

The structure of every item which you'll get from App Stores looks like this:
