## 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`).

### ❓ FAQ

**Which countries are supported?** UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain and Egypt.

**Does it cover new and used cars?** Yes. Use `/used-cars/cn_new` for new cars for sale and `/new-cars/...` pages for new car prices and trims.

**How do I apply filters?** Apply them on YallaMotor (city, make, model, body type, year, price, fuel) and paste the resulting URL. Add `?sort=price_asc` or `?sort=price_desc` to sort.

**How does `maxItems` work?** It is a limit per start URL. Listing pages hold 22 cars and the scraper follows pages until the limit is reached.

**Are `/new-cars/` pages paginated?** No, they are single pages with all models or trims shown.

**Do I need a proxy?** Not for short runs. For long runs (hundreds or thousands of items), residential proxies are recommended: they keep the run stable and reduce blocked requests. Enable them in `proxyConfiguration`, for example `{ "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }`.

**How fresh is the data?** Every run reads the live site, so data is as current as the listings.

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).
