Multiple dataset output schemas to show scrape data in Apify console UI
"storages": {
"companyInformationDataset": "./dataset_company_information_schema.json",
"reviewsDataset": "./dataset_reviews_schema.json"
}
I have these storage schemas in actor.json file but Apify UI does not pick up to use them to display scraped data that has been saved in them. So Users do not know if scraped data was saved unless they check each named dataset. I don't save data to unnamed dataset.

Hey @Casper , someone from the team will reply you soon.
That is not how it works. At least not for now, there will be feature like this in the future, but currently there is only one
dataset under storages . We show in the UI other datasets which were accessed during the run. To do that the user can go to storages tab and there under datasets should be a selector.
But if the user does not use the default dataset, the output view will always look like this.
You can have more views (not different datasets): https://docs.apify.com/academy/deploying-your-code/output-schema and https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/development/actor-definition/output-schemaOutput schema | Academy | Apify Documentation
