## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

### What does Das WeltAuto HU Used Cars do?

**Scrape [dasweltauto.hu](https://www.dasweltauto.hu/) VW-network used cars** via the site’s **public JSON search API** — **HUF prices with currency, year, odometer, fuel, power, dealer city, and listing URLs**. Click **Start** on the prefilled smoke (`maxResults` 5, `maxPages` 2).

**Unofficial.** This Actor is **not affiliated with, endorsed by, or maintained by Volkswagen, Porsche Informatik, or Das WeltAuto**. Rows are **dealer inventory** (`dealerOrgName` is the dealership organization). Private-person seller contact is not expected on this surface and is never emitted.

**Dashboards:** connect **Power BI**, **Tableau**, **Looker Studio**, or **Qlik** to the dataset API — see *Export to Power BI, Tableau, Looker Studio & Qlik* near the end. **AI agents:** paste this Actor’s Store page URL into an Apify-capable agent (MCP / Claude / Cursor with Apify), create an Apify account and API token once, and the agent can run the Actor and wire up the output.

#### Why use this Das WeltAuto scraper?

- 🚗 Public `GET /api/locales/hu_HU/vehicles/search` — **no browser, no Unblocker**
- 💶 HUF list prices kept **with currency**
- 🏷️ Optional `brand` + `minPrice` / `maxPrice` filters
- 🛡️ Apify **Residential + HU** default (API often works datacenter/direct; rotates on failure)

#### How to scrape dasweltauto.hu

1. Open this Actor in [Apify Console](https://console.apify.com/).
2. Click **Start** on the prefilled input (`maxResults` 5).
3. Keep Residential HU proxy on (or try direct if preferred).
4. Export the dataset or pull via API.

```json
{
  "maxResults": 5,
  "maxPages": 2,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "HU"
  }
}
```

#### How much does it cost?

**Pay per event (PPE):** Actor start + each vehicle **result**. On Free, results are about **$1.20 / 1,000**; paid plans are lower (see the Pricing tab). Platform usage is included. Prefer Residential HU — Unblocker is unnecessary for this API.

#### Input

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `maxResults` | Vehicle cap (prefill 5) |
| `maxPages` | Search pages to fetch (default 2; ~12 cars/page) |
| `brand` | Optional make/title filter (e.g. `VW`) |
| `minPrice` / `maxPrice` | Optional HUF bounds |
| `proxyConfiguration` | Apify Residential HU recommended |

#### Sample output

```json
{
  "listingId": "879-02897",
  "title": "VW Passat Var. Elegance 2.0 TDI DSG 4Motion",
  "url": "https://www.dasweltauto.hu/vehicle/87902897",
  "price": 8790000,
  "currency": "HUF",
  "location": "Szombathely",
  "year": 2021,
  "odometerKm": 141935,
  "fuel": "Dízel",
  "powerKw": 147,
  "make": "VW",
  "model": "VW Passat Var. Elegance 2.0 TDI DSG 4Motion",
  "dealerOrgName": "Savaria Autóház",
  "imageUrl": "https://vmscdn.porscheinformatik.com/...",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-09-04T12:00:00+00:00"
}
```

#### Tips

- \~12 vehicles per search page; raise `maxPages` for deeper coverage.
- Brand filter is client-side on `make` / `title`.
- Soft-block → Actor rotates Apify proxy and retries.

#### FAQ

##### Do I need Unblocker?

No. The JSON API works with normal HTTP. Residential HU is the stable default; datacenter/direct often works too.

##### Are private seller phones included?

No. This catalog is VW-network **dealer** stock. Only `dealerOrgName` (organization) is written.

##### Is this affiliated with Volkswagen?

No. Unofficial third-party scraper for public listing data.

**Actor ID:** `bakos_bence/dasweltauto`

#### Export to Power BI, Tableau, Looker Studio & Qlik

After a run, rows live in an Apify **dataset**. You can download JSON/CSV/Excel from the Dataset tab, or point BI tools at a **CSV URL** that refreshes when you scrape again.

**Prefer the token in the URL** (`token=`) — most tools only need “open this link as CSV”, with no custom headers.

##### Build a refreshable CSV URL

1. In Apify Console, open **Settings → Integrations** and copy an API token.
2. Save this Actor as a **Task** (optional but best for dashboards), run or **schedule** it once so there is a successful run.
3. Use the **latest successful task run** URL (replace `TASK_ID` and `YOUR_TOKEN`):

```text
https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-tasks/TASK_ID/runs/last/dataset/items?format=csv&clean=true&status=SUCCEEDED&token=YOUR_TOKEN
```

Or, from any finished run, open the **Dataset** tab, copy the dataset ID, and use:

```text
https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/DATASET_ID/items?format=csv&clean=true&token=YOUR_TOKEN
```

Anyone with that URL can read the data — treat it like a password. For recurring dashboards, prefer the `actor-tasks/…/runs/last/…` form so refresh always hits the newest successful scrape.

##### Power BI

1. Open Power BI Desktop → **Home** → **Get data** → **Web**.
2. Paste the CSV URL (including `token=`).
3. When asked how to sign in, choose **Anonymous** → **Connect**.
4. Confirm the preview is a table (CSV). **Load** or **Transform data** as needed.
5. Publish / schedule refresh in the Power BI service using the same URL (task `runs/last` keeps it current after each scrape).

`401`: token missing/wrong, or you did not pick **Anonymous**.

##### Tableau

1. Install Tableau’s **REST API** connector from Tableau Exchange (Desktop **2023.3+**).
2. **Connect** → **To a Server** → **REST API**.
3. Paste the CSV URL (including `token=`). Set response format to **CSV**.
4. If the connector asks for auth and the token is already in the URL, leave credentials empty / anonymous; otherwise paste the same token as a Bearer access token.
5. Create an **extract**. Refresh the extract after scheduled Task runs (or point at `runs/last` so each refresh loads the latest success).

Plain **Text file** connect still works if you download CSV from the Dataset tab once — use REST when you want repeatable refresh.

##### Looker Studio

Looker Studio has no strong built-in “private CSV API” connector. Use Google Sheets as the bridge:

1. Create a Google Sheet. In **A1** enter:

```text
=IMPORTDATA("https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-tasks/TASK_ID/runs/last/dataset/items?format=csv&clean=true&status=SUCCEEDED&token=YOUR_TOKEN")
```

2. Wait until columns fill (Sheets refreshes IMPORTDATA periodically).
3. In Looker Studio → **Create** → **Report** → **Google Sheets** → select that spreadsheet / tab.
4. Build the report. After each Actor/Task run, refresh the Sheet (or wait for IMPORTDATA) then refresh the Looker data source.

One-off alternative: Dataset tab → download CSV → Looker Studio **File upload**.

##### Qlik

**REST connector** (refreshable):

1. In Qlik Cloud / Qlik Sense → **Add data** → **REST** (or create a REST connection in the Data load editor).
2. URL = the CSV URL including `token=`. Method **GET**.
3. Set the expected response type to **CSV** (or use `format=json` and JSON mode).
4. **Test connection**, pick the table, **Add** / **Load**.
5. **Reload** the app after scheduled scrapes; with `runs/last`, each reload pulls the latest successful dataset.

**Files:** Dataset tab → download CSV → **Add data** → upload the file (fine for a single snapshot).

## MCP server setup

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

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).
