Scrapes Craigslist for new posts matching your search criteria and sends an email alert. Ideal for finding new leads, items for sale, housing, job postings, gigs, and more! Be the first to respond to new posts.

You can access the Craigslist Scraper programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.

1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
5const client = new ApifyClient({
6    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});
8
9// Prepare Actor input
10const input = {
11    "email_addr": "example@example.com",
12    "email_subj": "New Apartment Post!"
13};
14
15// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
16const run = await client.actor("andrewtaylor/craigslist-scraper").call(input);
17
18// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
19console.log('Results from dataset');
20console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
21const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
22items.forEach((item) => {
