Solving Cell Data Size Exceeds Limit Error in Apify Actor Output

Avatar of IulianIulian

I am trying to run an Apify actor in a table and keep getting the "Cell data size exceeds limit" error. Is there a way to only specify the output I'm interested in and have it be the result of the actor run?

    You can control the output data from your Apify actor by configuring the Input Data section when setting up the integration. In the Input Data section, specify exactly what data you want the actor to return using JSON format.When configuring the input, make sure to: 1. Enter the data body in JSON format 2. Include only the fields you're interested in 3. For dynamic data from your Clay table, put the key in quotes but leave the token unwrappedFor example, if you only want email and name data, your input might look like: LBKS{ "email": ##{{email field}}, "name": ##{{name field}} }LBKSThis way, you'll only receive the specific data points you've requested, helping to avoid exceeding cell data size limits.

    I think the input data should only contain parameters that the actor needs in order to run and the output settings are controlled in a different way

    you can use the field paths option to limit the data you are receiving and filter out things you don't need, this will help you stay under the cell size limit
