Check
by Actor, API & Scraper Monitor in Developer tools
Catch drift when everything still looks green. Check available Apify Actor run history and sampled output for schema drift and unexpected empty results. Additional checks cover HTTP responses, credential validity and available quota. One paid call returns a timestamped verdict and supporting details. A successful run or valid credential does not guarantee useful data. This endpoint checks once; it does not send alerts.
