searchTerms(array of strings) - keywords to searchmaxResults(integer) - max posts to return (default: 50)sortBy(string) - "relevance" or "latest"

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"searchTerms": ["SEARCH_TERM"], "maxResults": 50, "sortBy": "relevance"}')
echo "$RESULT" | jq '.'For larger jobs (async):
RUN_ID=$(curl -s -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/WAJfBnZBYR9mJrk5d/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"searchTerms": ["TERM"], "maxResults": 50}' | jq -r '.data.id')Step 3: Poll and fetch (if async)
STATUS=$(curl -s "https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-runs/$RUN_ID?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" | jq -r '.data.status')
# Poll every 5s until SUCCEEDED or FAILED
curl -s "https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-runs/$RUN_ID/dataset/items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" | jq '.'Step 4: Present results
