Data quality notes

Real estate listings may include rooms, size, floor, or property condition.

Electronics listings may include condition and model information.

All such details are stored in the attributes object.

Limitations

The actor extracts public listing data available in OLX.kz page HTML.

It does not log in.

It does not bypass private user settings.

It does not reveal hidden phone numbers.

It does not scrape messages or private account data.

Troubleshooting

Why did I get fewer listings than requested?

The selected category or search may have fewer available public results than your maxItems, or maxPagesPerSource may be too low.

Increase maxPagesPerSource or use broader input URLs.

Why are some prices empty?

Some OLX listings may be marked as negotiable, exchange, free, or otherwise not provide a numeric regular price.

Use priceDisplay for the user-facing price text.

Should I enable proxies?

Usually no.

The actor is HTTP-only and OLX.kz public pages often return the needed data directly.

Enable proxy settings only if your run is blocked.

You are responsible for using the data in accordance with applicable laws, OLX terms, and privacy rules.
