@azzouzana Hey, I see you know a lot
@azzouzana Hey, I see you know a lot about apify, so I need a clarification from you, if you are aware about it. Can we use apify internal API which apify use to fetch on frontend to show us our actor details. I got a really cool project idea which would simplify actor devs work

Hey 👋
hey
I'm already doing this, and I have a couple of them for personal use (I even mentioned one to the Apify team during my interview). I believe many other developers are doing the same. However, if you want to deliver or promote it as a service, that's a different matter, and you should consult directly with the Apify team..
No i guess i would have open sourced it as it would help dev. But if you have can you discuss how it works maybe its the same i will build. then maybe I can use it too
Sorry about the delays, my kids are interfering with me writing messages on my phones 😅
What are you thinking to build?

i built something for personal use as well (just a cli to quickly lookup and update actor details)
from what i hear, many other devs make similar tools too
I was going to make a analytics one
what did you create?
Well, I have one that notifies me about new reviews on WhatsApp. (Last time I checked, a few weeks ago, Apify had plans to make this a native feature, but I’m not sure if it was released since I haven’t received a review since then 😆). Also one to get actor's issues to WhatsApp..
Another one, since I’m obsessed with stats, is to automate the collection of some analytics/metrics that are unavailable out of the box in the insights page, as well as my daily credit spending... But I believe Apify is revamping that insights page too.. so better wait and 👀
mine is somewhat related to stats(I am obsessed too). Did you create the 2nd one?
(I've shared all of this as feedback with Apify when I had the interview..)
no worries cute little kids want their fathers attention:perfecto:
but i guess it would take time until then we can do it
and hey do you have any experience with open search or elasticsearch?
My point is to wait some time at least to make sure you won't work on some API calls that get deprecated with their analysis upcoming update..
Not that much, I haven’t been involved in it for years
Thanks. But BTW theres not much complex flow just some basic maths but yeah it would take some time but I am not in a state to put that, if you however please let me know
Hmm.. I had some work with like a gig
Sorry but unfortunately I don't have the bandwidth 🙏
no worries man
