Connecting actors

At a glance

The community member wants to connect two actors, where the first actor scrapes data from Indeed and the second actor performs a Google search using the company name from the first actor. The comments suggest two approaches:

1. Integrate the first actor with a deduplication actor, then connect the deduplication actor to the second actor. This will result in three actors, but allows for more flexibility in connecting different components.

2. Use a third-party service like Zapier, where the finished run from the first actor is remapped as the input for the second actor.

There is no explicitly marked answer in the comments.

I want to connect 2 actors and pull data from the first as an input in the second. I am scraping indeed then I want to run a google search scrape with the company name. How can I do this?

Integrate https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/actors first actor with https://apify.com/lukaskrivka/dedup-datasets and remap dataset to input, then add integration from dedup actor to second actor. You will end up with 3 actors instead of two however this way anything might be connected to anything.
If you don't mind third party services consider Zapier or alike, approach is the same: finished run from actor1 - remap dataset to new input - run actor2
