Each dataset item, key-value store record, or request in a request queue is then stored in its own file in the storage folder. Dataset items and request queue requests are always JSON files, and key-value store records can be any file type, based on its content type. For example, the Actor input is typically stored in `storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json`.

## Local Actor run with non-local storage
42+
43+
When developing locally, opening any storage will by default use local storage. To change this behavior and to use non-local storage you have to use `force_cloud=True` argument in [`Actor.open_dataset`](../../reference/class/Actor#open_dataset), [`Actor.open_request_queue`](../../reference/class/Actor#open_request_queue) or [`Actor.open_key_value_store`](../../reference/class/Actor#open_key_value_store). Proper use of this argument allows you to work with both local and non-local storages.

By default, the storage contents are persisted across multiple Actor runs. To clean up the Actor storages before the running the Actor, use the `--purge` flag of the [`apify run`](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs/reference#apify-run) command of the Apify CLI.
