Hi, thank you for using the Website Content Crawler.

This appears to be a UX issue on our side. You’ve specified a startURLs value and set the crawling depth to 0, but you’ve also kept the Consider URLs from Sitemaps option enabled.

As a result, all URLs from the sitemap are being scraped, which may not be what you intended.

I understand how this can be confusing, and I’ll raise it internally for improvement.

To resolve the issue, please disable the Consider URLs from Sitemaps option, and the crawler will work as expected. You can check my run as an example.

I hope this helps!
I’ll leave this issue open for now.
