Closing the loop on my question from
Closing the loop on my question from yesterday, in case it saves someone else a week.
It was not indexing. Store search applies a safety filter by default, and Actors from developers who have not completed KYC are excluded from it - even when they are public, working, and passing QA. You can check in two requests:
GET https://api.apify.com/v2/store?username=YOUR_USERNAME -> 0 results
GET https://api.apify.com/v2/store?username=YOUR_USERNAME&includeUnrunnableActors=true -> all of them
If the second returns your Actors and the first does not, it is the filter, and nothing you do to titles, README or categories will change it. Identity verification lives at Actors -> Insights -> Payouts -> Verify Identity.
One more thing for anyone outside the US/EU: my Japanese ID documents failed the automated check every time, because they print the name in Japanese characters only and the account name is in Latin script. Support (thanks, Will) verified me manually within a day of asking.
All 11 of my Actors now show in Store search. Before this, they had been invisible for their entire first week.
