# Update Settings

> Configure the PAP Apartments scraper parameters and options

Configure your PAP Apartments squid settings to control the maximum number of results to scrape. Adjust settings based on how many listings you need from each search.

## Headers

<ParamField header="Authorization" type="string" required>
  Your API authentication token. Value: `Token YOUR_API_KEY`
</ParamField>

<ParamField header="Content-Type" type="string" required>
  Request body format. Value: `application/json`
</ParamField>

## Scraper Parameters

Set these parameters in the `params` object:

| Parameter                          | Type    | Default   | Description                                        |
| ---------------------------------- | ------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| **max\_results**                   | integer | 200       | Maximum number of listings to collect per task     |
| **max\_unique\_results\_per\_run** | integer | unlimited | Maximum unique results across all tasks in the run |

## 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>
  Start with a lower max\_results value (e.g., 50) to test your search before scaling up to larger extractions.
</Tip>

<Note>
  PAP typically has fewer listings than agency-based platforms since it only features private sellers.
