Can I exclude the results that I already have scraped?

I want to schedule the scraper every day or every 12h and save it to my DB. Is it possible to exclude the results that I already read before? Or should I do this manually?

Hi! You can use "Time frame" to limit scraping by exact date or there is two json input options:

1{
2    "onlyPostsForLastTimeUnit": "hours",
3    "onlyPostsForLastValue": 12,
4}

to limit scraping by relative time, see sample run https://console.apify.com/view/runs/kZ1DgzUxo7ySeVGvW

I´m going to close the issue now, but if there would be anything else we could help with, please let us know.
