Wer-Liefert-Was Scraper

This Apify actor scrapes company and product information from Wer-Liefert-Was (WLW), one of the leading B2B marketplaces in German-speaking countries. The actor supports both company and product searches across multiple regions and languages.

• Language selection (German/English)
• Optional detailed company information
• Configurable pagination limits
• Structured JSON output

Input Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
resultType	String	Type of search to perform: company_search or product_search
searchTerm	String	The term to search for
region	String	Prioritize region for search results (DE/AT/CH/BE/LU)
language	String	Preferred language for results (de/en)
includeCompanyDetails	Boolean	Whether to store detailed company information in KVS
companyDetailsStore	Key-value store	Optional store to keep company details in (default: the actor's own wlw-company-details-v2 store)
refreshCompanyDetailsOlderThanDays	Integer	Re-fetch stored company details older than this many days (default 90, 0 = always fetch)
maxPages	Integer	Maximum number of search result pages to crawl (0 = unlimited)

Pricing

This actor uses pay-per-event pricing. You only pay for the events below, see the Pricing tab for current prices.

• Actor start: charged once per run.
• Search result: charged per company or product saved to the dataset.
• Company details: charged per company whose details are fetched and saved to the company details store. Details reused from the store are free.

Once your maximum cost per run is reached, the actor stops fetching further company details.

Example Input

{
    "resultType": "product_search",
    "searchTerm": "stuhl",
    "includeCompanyDetails": true,
    "maxPages": 4,
    "region": "DE",
    "language": "en"
}

Output

Company Details Output

If includeCompanyDetails is set to true, the actor will store company details in a named key-value store wlw-company-details-v2, one record per company keyed by the company slug and with a fetchedAt timestamp. This key-value store is shared between actor runs, so you can maintain a permanent database of company information. To use another store instead, for example the wlw-company-details store used by earlier versions of this actor, select it in companyDetailsStore. Companies already in the store are not fetched (and not charged) again, unless their details are older than refreshCompanyDetailsOlderThanDays (default 90). Compared to company search results, company details contain more information, such as contact persons at the company, EU VAT ID and more.
