| Parameter                          | Type    | Default   | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
| ---------------------------------- | ------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **max\_pages**                     | integer | 100       | Maximum number of search result pages to scrape (max: 100)                                                                                                                                                                        |
| **max\_results**                   | integer | 50        | Maximum number of listings to collect per task                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| **max\_unique\_results\_per\_run** | integer | unlimited | Maximum unique results across all tasks in the run                                                                                                                                                                                |
| **collect\_ads**                   | boolean | false     | Include sponsored/promoted listings in results                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| **fetch\_since**                   | string  | null      | Stop scraping when items older than this threshold are reached (based on `published_at`). Use a relative duration (24h, 7d, 2w) or an absolute date (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS)                                                         |
| **fetch\_since\_timezone**         | string  | null      | Timezone for interpreting an absolute `fetch_since` date (e.g. `Europe/Paris`). Only applies when `fetch_since` is an absolute date — ignored for relative values like `24h` or `7d`. See [supported timezones](/docs/timezones). |

## Squid Settings

Configure general squid settings:

| Setting                     | Type    | Description                                      |
| --------------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **name**                    | string  | Display name for your squid configuration        |
| **concurrency**             | integer | Number of parallel scraping threads (default: 1) |
| **export\_unique\_results** | boolean | Export only unique results (deduplicated)        |
| **to\_complete**            | boolean | Run until all tasks complete                     |
| **no\_line\_breaks**        | boolean | Remove line breaks from results                  |

<Tip>
  Use `fetch_since: 24h` to monitor new listings published in the last day.
</Tip>

<Note>
  Keep concurrency at 1 to avoid rate limiting on Bien'Ici.
