Intermittent Node Hanging Issue – Apify N8N Integration v0.6.5 (N8N v2.7.4)

General🖥️PlatformI am writing to report a critical intermittent issue with the Apify N8N Node (@apify/n8n-nodes-apify v0.6.5) running on N8N version 2.7.4.
During workflow execution, the Apify node occasionally enters an unresponsive state where it continuously polls without returning the dataset to subsequent nodes. This behavior occurs sporadically—not on every execution—which complicates debugging during our current implementation testing phase.
Observed Behavior
The Apify dashboard indicates the Actor run completed successfully with normal status and logs.
Within N8N, the node remains in a loading/spinning state indefinitely.
The dataset is never passed to the next node in the workflow.
Because the node does not technically fail or timeout, it continues consuming account credits while the workflow remains stalled.
I am using the Apify Instagram Hashtag scraper with the Apify Community Node in Run an Actor and get Dataset operation.
When the stuck in a loop error happens there are Runs until the credit is not depleted from the account.
