- Discover stores without a keyword. A store location, a category or any filter
is now enough on its own, so a search like "US stores, 300 results" runs
instead of asking for a keyword it does not need.
- The search query field starts with an example keyword, and the category list
no longer offers "All categories" as if it were a search on its own.
- Prevent parallel free-tier runs from spending the same lifetime allowance.
- Record invalid API inputs as terminal errors instead of leaving telemetry incomplete.
- Accept newer Apify run origins without failing during SDK status parsing.
Skip stores from previous runs. New optional setting. Turn it on and each run
continues where your last one stopped, so you get new stores instead of the ones
you already have.
Useful to know:
- Turn it on from your first run. Only runs made with it on are counted, so
switching it on later will not skip what you collected before.
- Each search keeps its own history. A different keyword, category, store
location or shipping destination starts a new one. Price, availability and
shipping-origin filters do not, so you can narrow a search you already started.
- A broad category scrape stays productive across many runs. A single keyword, or
a search narrowed to one country, runs out sooner. When it does, the run tells
you so instead of returning nothing without explanation.
