This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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`).

## 🚗 سيارة Syarah Scraper — Used & New Cars in Saudi Arabia

[Syarah (سيارة)](https://syarah.com/en) is one of Saudi Arabia's largest online car marketplaces, selling inspected and guaranteed used cars alongside new cars from dealers across the Kingdom. This scraper extracts structured listings — prices, make, model, year, mileage, city, fuel, colors, discounts, financing and warranty details — from any Syarah category, brand, model or filter page, so you can track the Saudi car market without manual copy-paste.

### Why use this scraper?

- 🏷️ **Market benchmarking** — compare used vs new prices for the same model across Saudi cities
- 🚘 **Dealer & fleet analysis** — see which inventory is available, booked, or financed
- 🔍 **Lead and sourcing research** — find low-mileage or discounted cars matching your criteria
- 🧮 **Valuation models** — build depreciation and pricing datasets from year, mileage and condition
- 📊 **Analytics dashboards** — feed BI tools with fresh Saudi automotive data
- 🌐 **English & Arabic** — scrape the English or Arabic version of the site

### ❓ FAQ

**Which Syarah pages can I scrape?**
Home, used/new car lists, brand pages, model pages, keyword search (`/filters?text=...`) and filtered result pages (`/filters?...`). Individual car pages are not needed because every field is returned from the list pages.

**How do I scrape a specific filter, like diesel cars under 30,000 SAR?**
Apply the filters on syarah.com and paste the resulting URL into **Start URLs**.

**Does it support Arabic?**
Yes. Use `https://syarah.com/ar/...` URLs to get Arabic text values. Field names stay the same.

**How does `maxItems` work?**
It limits the number of cars per start URL. With several start URLs, each gets its own limit. Pagination is handled automatically.

**Do I need a proxy?**
No, the scraper works without a proxy by default.

**How fresh is the data?**
Data is read live at run time, so it matches the website at that moment.

**Are prices in SAR with VAT?**
Yes, `price` is the cash selling price in Saudi riyals as shown on the site, including VAT.

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).
