An Apify account is required and the Actor is paid, billed per run started plus per product returned. ## Pick the input before calling | The question | Input to send | |---|---| | About a specific page the user gave you | `detailsUrls: [{"url": "..."}]` | | "Find me an X under $Y" with no URL | `keyword` plus `marketplaces` | | "Compare X across stores" | `keyword` plus several `marketplaces` | Always send `maxProductResults` and `additionalProperties: true`. Without the second, stock, rating, list price and identifiers are all missing...
