Link Account to Squid
Some scrapers require a connected platform account to run (LinkedIn, Facebook, Sales Navigator, etc.). Link one or more accounts to a squid by passing their hash IDs in the accounts array when updating the squid.
Only scrapers that require authentication have an accounts field. For public scrapers (Google Maps, Trustpilot, etc.) this field is ignored.
