When filled it takes precedence over URLs and switches the run to URL mode.
Alias of "Max listings". Used when Max listings is 0.
Alias of "Max pages per search": the larger of the two applies.
ON: each listing gets full description, spec breakdown, 10-point history check, service history, finance details, full gallery with image tags and complete dealer contact (one extra request per listing). OFF: faster, listing-grid fields only.
OFF (default): keep only advert-specific finance (monthly price, FCA name/number, lender type). ON: also include AutoTrader's static PCP/HP/CS explainer text, which is identical for every advert and large. Only applies when 'Fetch full advert details' is ON.
How many result pages (about 20 listings each) to walk per search (1 page when left empty). AutoTrader caps a single search at 100 pages (about 2,000 listings). Subdivide with filters to go beyond that. Values above 100 are clamped to 100.
Overall cap across all searches/URLs. 0 means no cap (bounded by max pages).
Apify Proxy. Datacenter (the default) is enough; residential is used automatically only if datacenter exits get rejected.
{ "useApifyProxy": true}Budget control: the most residential exits the run may use before falling back to the backup pool. 0 disables residential entirely (datacenter + backup only). Residential is only used if datacenter gets rejected.
Paste a previous run ID or dataset ID to continue a large crawl of listings without returning or charging for listings already collected there. Use this after an interrupted run, or when continuing a listing pull in another run. For recurring monitoring of the same search, use Incremental mode below instead.
Turn this on for recurring monitoring of the same search. The first run returns all matching listings as NEW. Later runs normally return only NEW, UPDATED, and REAPPEARED listings. Turn on "Emit unchanged" or "Emit expired" only when you also want those listings returned (and billed). State is kept separately for each mode/filter combination; use State key when you want to name or deliberately share a monitoring campaign. To continue one specific interrupted run instead, use Resume from a previous run above.
Optional. Name this monitoring campaign to keep its state stable, or to deliberately share state across differently-configured runs. Leave empty to let the actor derive a key automatically from the mode/filters, so different searches never mix state with each other.
Off by default. Turn on to also return listings that have not changed since the last run, marked UNCHANGED. This returns (and bills) extra rows you already have, so leave it off unless you specifically want the full snapshot every run.
Off by default. Turn on to also return listings that were present in a previous run but are no longer found, marked EXPIRED. Only produced once a run has fully scanned the tracked search, not when Max listings/Max pages capped it, a page was blocked, or Resume was used. This returns (and bills) extra synthetic rows, so leave it off unless you need expiry tracking.
Field names that must NOT make a listing count as UPDATED, e.g. description or specifications.*.value (dotted paths; * matches every list item). The fields are still returned in every row. Fields that move with the live market or your postcode (distance, badges, price rating, deviations, highlights) and image host names are always ignored. Changing this list never causes a one-time wave of UPDATED rows.
Optionally send results into the apps you already use, via Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors. Authorize one under Apify, Settings, Integrations, then select it here. Notion gets a page per vehicle; other connectors get a best-effort write. Each item is written as a condensed, human-readable summary (a title plus key fields), not the full JSON. Leave empty to skip. Supported: Notion, Linear, Airtable, Apify.
URL or id of the Notion page under which vehicle pages are created. Required to enable the Notion export; ignored by other connectors.
