## Run it

Set `APIFY_TOKEN` in your environment, then call the synchronous endpoint for small and medium runs:

```bash
curl -s -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/dataspryva~tiktok-hashtag-momentum-and-top-creator-tracker/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d @references/example-input.json
```

For large runs, start an async run and read the dataset:

```bash
RUN=$(curl -s -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/dataspryva~tiktok-hashtag-momentum-and-top-creator-tracker/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d @references/example-input.json | jq -r '.data.id')

curl -s "https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-runs/$RUN?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" | jq '.data.status'
curl -s "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/$(curl -s "https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-runs/$RUN?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" | jq -r '.data.defaultDatasetId')/items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN&format=json" > output.json
```
