Start a run
To choose the targets yourself, send the parameters below as input. The call returns 202 with the run; the key needs the scrapers:run scope and the account a positive credit balance.

A run that collects nothing costs nothing.

Output fields
Rows have no fixed schema; these are the fields observed in the rows collected so far. Coverage is the share of rows where the field is present.
No rows collected yet, so no fields have been observed. Run the scraper once and they will appear here.
