Choose 'search' to build a query from filters below, or 'url' to paste Autotrader search or listing links.
Distance from the ZIP code to search. Use a large value for a wider area.
Vehicle make codes, e.g. HONDA, TOYOTA, FORD. Leave empty for all makes.
Vehicle model codes, e.g. CIVIC, CAMRY. Leave empty for all models of the selected make(s).
New, Used, Certified, or Third-party certified. Leave empty for all.
Filter by simplified exterior color, e.g. BLACK, WHITE, RED, BLUE, GRAY.

Ordering of the results.
Paste Autotrader search result pages (SEO, query-form, paginated, filtered, used/new, make-only, body-style, mobile host), the listing JSON service URL, or individual vehicle pages. Dealer directory pages are skipped with a warning. Leaving this untouched in URL mode scrapes the example URLs. In URL mode the filter fields above are ignored.

Used when Autotrader URLs is empty or still the example list; when it holds URLs it selects URL mode. Items may be plain strings or {url} objects.
When on, each listing is enriched with the richer per-vehicle page (full options, extended specs, complete history). Adds an extra request per listing.
The sole soft cap on the run, applied across the whole run (not per page or per search). Default 20. Set 0 for unlimited.
Alias of Max listings. Used only when Max listings is not set.
Safety bound on how many result pages to walk per search or URL. 0 (default) means unlimited — the walk stops naturally once a page comes back empty or keeps repeating listings already collected, or sooner once Max listings is reached. Set a number only for an explicit page cap below that natural stop.
Alias of Max pages per search. Used only when Max pages per search is not set.
Autotrader serves the same US listings to any exit (results are driven by the ZIP code, not the visitor's location). Datacenter and Residential both work: pick Datacenter or Auto and the actor tries datacenter connections first, then falls back to residential; the default Residential group needs an Apify plan that includes it. Leave the country unset.
{ "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ]}Optional. Paste a full cookie header from a logged-in browser on autotrader.com (must include a cleared _abck plus bm_sz/ak_bmsc). When supplied, the run replays it over fast HTTP and skips the browser entirely — far cheaper and more reliable. The cookie is short-lived (~15–30 min); refresh it before each run. Leave blank to use the default browser mode.
Optional. Paste a previous run ID or dataset ID to continue a large walk-all pull: listings already saved by that run are loaded before scraping starts and skipped, so this run only appends new listings. Leave empty for a normal fresh run.
Remember what each scheduled run returned and label every listing NEW, UPDATED, UNCHANGED, REAPPEARED or EXPIRED. UNCHANGED listings are skipped (not saved, not charged) unless Emit unchanged is on. Off by default: output is identical to a normal run.
Optional name for the remembered baseline. Leave empty to key it automatically on your search or URLs and filters (changing Max listings never starts a new baseline). Use the same key across runs to share one baseline.
Also save listings that did not change since the last run, labelled UNCHANGED. Default off.
Save a row labelled EXPIRED for listings seen in the baseline that the latest complete scan no longer returns. Skipped when the scan was cut short by Max listings, Max pages or a resume.
Output field names that must not count as a change, for example price or distanceFromSearch. They stay in the output.
Optionally send results into the apps you already use, via Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors. Authorize one under Apify, Settings, API & Integrations, then select it here. Notion gets a rich page-per-item export; other connectors get a best-effort write. Leave empty to skip; never changes the dataset output. Supported: Notion, Linear, Airtable, Apify.
URL or id of the Notion page under which item pages are created. Required to enable the Notion export; ignored by other connectors.
