Difference between trial and paid users in rental model

At a glance

The community members are discussing how to determine if a user is on a trial plan. They have checked the Apify API documentation, but the fields they are seeing in their code differ from what is documented. Some community members have provided links to resources, but it's unclear if they have found a definitive solution. The discussion is ongoing, and there is no explicitly marked answer.

If I understand it correctly it's only info about paying status of apify platform, not given actor (?)

SSaurav Jain

Have you checked our API reference?

SSaurav Jain

can you elaborate that a little more please?

DDanek

sure. In code (python sdk) I'm using

Plain Text

user = await Actor.apify_client.user().get()

DDanek

I check what fields are available there and I think there are differences with documentation you provided

DDanek

I mean solution to this : Hello, is there any way to find out if user is trail user?

I want know when paid actor is running if it is run by free trial or if it is rented.

Same here.

@Danek hey, have you noticed this line in the docs? Depending on whether ApifyClient was created with a token, the method will either return public or private user data

DDanek

yea, I know about it
