What this Actor collects

Each dataset item represents one Brave Discussions result from a public community source, with the thread URL, excerpt, community, dates, reply or vote data, and top-answer details when exposed.

Uses the input limits and filters below to control the crawl.
Stores source-backed fields defined by the 29-field dataset schema.
Omits optional fields when the source does not expose a value instead of writing nulls or fabricated placeholders.

Use cases

Community and audience research
Question and answer monitoring
Discussion-source enrichment
