Choose whether the actor should scrape paste contents or only collect lightweight Pastebin URLs for a cumulative scheduled index. URL index mode does not fetch raw paste text.
Upper limit for Pastebin archive and optional search-engine entries inspected before filters and result limits are applied. The actor can inspect up to 5,000 entries per run across the selected discovery sources, but public sources may expose fewer entries.
Upper limit for matching paste records saved in scrape mode. URL index mode uses urlIndexMaxRecordsPerRun instead.
Maximum new paste_url records to save in URL index mode. Use this with Apify Schedules to build a cumulative low-storage URL history over time.
Named Apify dataset where URL index mode appends cumulative paste_url records across scheduled runs.
Named key-value store used to remember recently indexed paste IDs and avoid saving duplicate URL records across scheduled runs.
When enabled, URL index mode uses the named state store to avoid appending paste IDs that were already collected by previous scheduled runs.
How many recently indexed paste IDs to keep in the dedupe state store. The default is smoke-sized for automated health checks; increase it deliberately for longer scheduled URL indexing.
When enabled, URL index mode writes each new paste_url record to both the cumulative named dataset and the current run's default dataset for easier run-by-run inspection.
In normal scrape mode, search previously collected paste_url records from the named URL index dataset only after the live archive search finds no keyword matches. This lets client runs go further back while avoiding extra raw paste fetches when live data already matched.
Maximum recently collected URL index records to search as a fallback after live keyword search finds no matches. Higher values go further back, but increase raw paste fetches and runtime.
When enabled, the actor makes one extra Pastebin page request for each saved item to enrich it with author and publication timestamp. Leave this off for the cheapest high-volume runs.
Optional words or phrases to search for in discovered public paste text. If you enter keywords, the actor saves only pastes that contain at least one of them. Up to 100 keywords are accepted.
[][ "password", "api_key", "BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY"]How far to look for public paste IDs before keyword filtering. Recent checks only the rolling public archive. Expanded adds common syntax archives when you request more than the main archive usually exposes. Deep fetches Pastebin's public language archive list and scans up to the configured syntax archive limit. Deep is broader and slower, but it is still not a complete historical Pastebin search.
Optional Pastebin syntax archives to include in discovery. These pages can expose additional and sometimes older public paste IDs than the main rolling archive. Choose suggested values or type another Pastebin syntax slug.
[][ "bash", "python", "json"]Only used for deep discovery. Pastebin currently exposes hundreds of language archive pages, so this cap controls how many of those pages are fetched before paste IDs are deduplicated and selected for processing.
Backwards-compatible switch for automatic archive expansion. Leave enabled for expanded and deep discovery. Turn it off only when you want the actor to inspect the main rolling archive unless syntaxArchives are provided manually.
When enabled, keyword runs that inspect public pastes but find no matching paste save one search_summary dataset item explaining what was searched and how to widen the run.
Optional best-effort fallback that searches externally indexed Pastebin URLs for each keyword and adds discovered paste IDs to the run. This can find older public pastes, but search engines may throttle, omit, or change results.
Maximum externally indexed Pastebin URLs to add per keyword when searchEngineDiscovery is enabled.
Cost guard for keyword searches. If zero matching paste records have been saved after this many processed pastes, the actor stops early and writes a summary. Set to 0 to disable and scan the full maxPastesPerRun budget.
Cost guard for sparse keyword searches. After the first matching paste is saved, the actor stops if this many additional processed pastes do not produce another saved match. Set to 0 to disable and scan the full maxPastesPerRun budget.
Optional Python-compatible regex patterns used to extract emails, keys, URLs, or other structured matches from saved pastes. Up to 25 patterns are accepted.
[][ "[A-Za-z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\\.[A-Za-z]{2,}", "AKIA[0-9A-Z]{16}"]
