how does someone use the api (python) to set the ACTOR_MAX_PAID_DATASET_ITEMS? i think there's a maxItems

or do we, as the developer, need to add a limit variable and programmatically add it in the code to limit results

I guess my question is this 💻creators-and-apifyDoes Apify handle Maximum charged

Via API, it is max_itemsmax_items here https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/reference/class/ActorClientAsync#call

In your code, you need to implement something similar as this JS code

We recommend switching to PPE though

Thank you. The issue was max_items vs maxItems and running it during call instead of input variable
