How to generate token with read-only permission to shar...

At a glance

The community member created an RSS task based on a blog post, but the only way to access the task's execution result in the Storage.dataset is by exposing their Apify API. They are wondering if there is a way to generate a read-only token or another method to share the task result properly without exposing the API.

In the comments, another community member suggests putting the RSS feed in the named key-value store and overwriting it on each run. This way, the URL of the feed stays the same and the API token is not exposed.

I refered to https://blog.apify.com/how-to-turn-any-website-into-an-rss-feed-a8f9f216e1b0/ and wrote my own rss task, but the only way to get the execution result of task in Storage.dataset is accessing:

Plain Text

https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-tasks/changchiyou~wildrift-news-zh-tw/runs/last/dataset/items?token=[apify_api_MYAPI]&format=rss&clean=true

Which means I NEED to expose my apify API if I want to share this rss result, it's strange.

Have I missed some docs to generate token with read-only permission (or other way to share task result properly)?

You can put the RSS feed to the named key value store. Then overwrite that value on each run. I have done RSS feeds like that. The url of the feed then stays the same and your token is not exposed.
