Inputs

FieldWhat it doesType
instanceThe Mastodon instance host to scrape, without the scheme (e.g. "mastodon.social", "fosstodon.org", "mas.to"). The actor calls that instance's public REST API.string
modeWhat to scrape: "hashtag" timeline (set query to the hashtag), "account" toots (set query to the @handle), or the "public" / federated timeline of the instance. Note: in account mode, boosted/reblogged rows show the reblogger as author (not the original poster). Some instances (e.g. mastodon.social) require auth for the public timeline and will return a BLOCKED diagnostic in public mode.string
queryFor hashtag mode: the hashtag to fetch, with or without the leading # (e.g. "opensource"). For account mode: the handle, with or without @ (e.g. "Mastodon" or "[email protected]"). Ignored in public mode.string
localPublic mode only. If on, returns only posts originating on this instance (local timeline). If off, returns the federated timeline (posts from across the fediverse). Ignored in hashtag and account modes.boolean
maxItemsMaximum number of posts to return. The actor pages through the timeline (40 per request) until it reaches this limit or runs out of posts.integer
notionConnectorOptional. Write each post as a page into your Notion when the run finishes. Authorize a Notion connector once in Settings → API & Integrations → MCP connectors, then pick it here. Leave empty to skip (default) — results are always saved to the dataset regardless.string
notionParentIdOptional. The Notion data source ID of the database to write into (only used if a Notion connector is set). Leave empty to create the pages privately in your workspace instead.string

What you get

A structured dataset — each result includes fields like:

Export every run as JSON, CSV or Excel, or send it to your app, a database, Google Sheets, or an AI agent.
