## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## AutoScout24 Scraper

Extract car listings from Europe's largest online car marketplace across 9 country domains. Get prices, specs, mileage, first-registration dates, dealer contacts, and AutoScout24's own price-evaluation flags.

### What does AutoScout24 Scraper do?

Scrape vehicle listings from AutoScout24.de, .it, .fr, .nl, .es, .at, .be, .ch, .lu, and .com. Paste any search URL with your filters already applied — make, model, price band, year, body type, fuel, mileage, damage exclusion — and every parameter carries through.

Data is extracted from the site's embedded Next.js `__NEXT_DATA__` JSON, which is more stable than CSS selectors and survives site redesigns.

### Technical details

- Extracts from Next.js `__NEXT_DATA__` JSON — no CSS selectors, no layout fragility
- Uses **EU residential proxies** matching the target country
- Handles Akamai Bot Manager via `got-scraping` TLS impersonation
- Automatic pagination (up to 20 pages / ~400 listings per URL)
- Rate-limited with 2–3.5 second delays between pages
- Supports 9 country domains with a single input schema

### Known limits

- **AutoScout24 caps search results at 20 pages (~400 listings) per URL.** To get more, narrow your filters or split by region.
- **Akamai Bot Manager is active on deep pages.** Residential proxies matched to the target country are required.
- **Listings can be geo-restricted.** Use the matching proxy country for the domain.

### FAQ

**Do I need to configure proxies?** No — EU residential proxies are pre-configured. Just select the matching country in the Proxy Country dropdown.

**Can I scrape multiple countries in one run?** Yes — add multiple search URLs from different domains. Set Proxy Country to the primary market; a small percentage of cross-country requests may fail.

**Does this include dealer reviews?** Yes — rating and review count are included. Full review text requires a separate Actor.

**How do I export data?** After a run, go to Storage → Export as JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML.

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("aurenic/autoscout24-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,aurenic/autoscout24-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
