Issue with `useLastPostId` when alternating runs on different accounts.

Closed

Hi, we've tried using the useLastPostId toggle in the UI, but we've noticed that it only works correctly when the subsequent runs are for the same account. It seems that, when alternating runs between different accounts, we have to extract the messages every time (the ID of last post can no longer be found).

This seems to be due to an issue with the key-value storage, it seems like only the value from the latest run is ever persisted, even if the runs in question are re-running or resurrecting a previous run (the storage IDs still seem to change between each run).

We are interested in using the scraper to collect from multiple accounts, and would like to be able to continue from previous runs for all of them each time, so we would need some better solution to manage this, i.e. either one of:

  • make the last posts ID persistent between runs for different accounts
  • allow explicit specification of last post ID or a timestamp limit via the API input.

Would either of these be possible?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards.

Thank you for pointing out the issue. I appreciate the detailed explanation. I’ll explore a solution that allows more persistent handling of the last post ID across multiple accounts, as you suggested. Once I’ve developed a fix or improvement, I’ll get back to you with an update.

Best regards,

Muhammet

A fix has been implemented. The scraper should now work as intended — the last post ID is stored separately for each user, which should prevent any mix-ups between accounts. It should now run stably and resume correctly across multiple users.

Please feel free to test it out and let me know if you encounter any further issues.

Best regards,

Muhammet

Thank you for turning this around so quickly, I can confirm that this now works as expected. Great job!
