Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## willhaben Scraper — Austrian Marketplace Listings **Extract classified listings from [willhaben.at](https://www.willhaben.at) — Austria's largest online marketplace.** Built for **price research, market analysis, reselling, and lead generation** in Austria. ### What you get For every listing in the search results: - **title** — listing headline - **price** + **price_display** - **description** — listing body text - **location**, **postcode**, **district**, **state**, **country** - **latitude**, **longitude** - **is_private** — private seller vs commercial dealer - **published** — publish date - **image** + **images** (all photos) - **id**, **url** - **search_query**, **scraped_at** Data is read from willhaben's embedded structured JSON, so output is clean and reliable — not fragile HTML scraping. ### Why this Actor | | willhaben Scraper | Manual browsing | HTML scrapers | |---|---|---|---| | Structured fields | Yes | Slow | Fragile | | Private vs dealer flag | Yes | No | Rare | | Geo coordinates | Yes | No | No | | All listing images | Yes | Manual | Partial | | Pay per listing | Yes | — | — | ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `searchQuery` | string | Keyword to search (e.g. `iphone`, `sofa`) | | `maxResults` | integer | Max listings to return | | `maxPages` | integer | Max result pages (~30 listings/page) | | `useApifyProxy` | boolean | Use Apify residential proxy (recommended) | #### Example input ```json { "searchQuery": "playstation 5", "maxResults": 100, "maxPages": 5, "useApifyProxy": true } ```` ### Sample output ```json { "id": "1799245307", "title": "PlayStation 5 Digital Edition", "price": 330.0, "price_display": "€ 330", "location": "Salzburg", "postcode": "5020", "district": "Salzburg", "state": "Salzburg", "is_private": true, "image": "https://cache.willhaben.at/mmo/7/179/924/5307_1276834630.jpg", "url": "https://www.willhaben.at/iad/kaufen-und-verkaufen/d/...", "search_query": "playstation 5" } ``` ### Use cases - **Price research** — see real market prices for any product in Austria - **Reselling / arbitrage** — spot underpriced private-seller listings - **Market analysis** — track supply, prices and regions over time - **Lead generation** — find commercial sellers by category and region ### Pricing Pay-per-result.
