The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

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 ## 99acres Projects Search Scraper Extract new real estate project listings from 99acres.com project search pages. Captures project names, developer info, configurations (2BHK/3BHK/etc.), pricing, RERA status, and more. ### Features - **Project search extraction** — scrape all projects from any 99acres project search URL - **Automatic pagination** — continues to next pages until `maxItems` is reached - **Deep scraping mode** — opens each project's detail page for full description, amenities, RERA number, builder contact, images - **Anti-bot bypass** — residential proxy + browser fingerprinting ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `searchUrls` | string[] | required | 99acres project search URLs (search/project/*) | | `maxItems` | integer | 20 | Maximum projects to scrape (1–500) | | `enableDeepScraping` | boolean | false | Open detail pages for description, RERA, amenities | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | RESIDENTIAL | Apify proxy settings | #### Example Input ```json { "searchUrls": ["https://www.99acres.com/search/project/buy/chennai?city=36&res_com=R"], "maxItems": 20, "enableDeepScraping": false } ```` ### Output Fields | Field | Description | |---|---| | `projectId` | 99acres project ID (e.g. `r437330`) | | `idType` | ID type: `npxid` (new project), `npspid` (unit), `spid` (resale) | | `projectUrl` | Direct URL to the project listing | | `projectName` | Project name (e.g. "Casagrand Osaka") | | `developer` | Builder/developer name | | `configurations` | BHK options (e.g. `["2 BHK", "3 BHK"]`) | | `location` | Locality name | | `price.displayPrice` | Formatted price range | | `price.min` / `price.max` | Price in INR | | `area.min` / `area.max` | Area in sq ft | | `statusInfo` | Completion/launch status | | `verification.isReraRegistered` | RERA mentioned | | `verification.reraNumber` | RERA registration ID (deep scraping) | | `contact.name` | Developer contact (deep scraping) | | `amenities` | Amenity list (deep scraping) | | `description` | Full project description (deep scraping) | | `images` | Project photo URLs (deep scraping) | ### URL Patterns Supported - `search/project/buy/CITY` — Buy project listings - Any 99acres project search URL with filters ### Notes - Project search URLs: use `/search/project/buy/` (not `/search/property/`) - Residential proxy strongly recommended - Speed: ~15 projects/min (deep scraping: ~4–5/min) # Actor input Schema ## `searchUrls` (type: `array`): Add one or more 99acres project search URLs (e.g. https://www.99acres.com/search/project/buy/pune). ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of projects to scrape. ## `enableDeepScraping` (type: `boolean`): Open each project detail page to extract full description, all configurations, RERA number, developer contact, and images. ## `headless` (type: `boolean`): Run browser in headless mode (no visible UI). Set to false for debugging. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Optionally, use Apify Proxy or custom HTTP proxy to avoid IP address-based blocking. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchUrls": [ "https://www.99acres.com/search/project/buy/chennai?city=36&preference=S&area_unit=1&res_com=R" ], "maxItems": 20, "enableDeepScraping": false, "headless": true, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ], "apifyProxyCountry": "IN" } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "searchUrls": [ "https://www.99acres.com/search/project/buy/chennai?city=36&preference=S&area_unit=1&res_com=R" ], "maxItems": 20, "enableDeepScraping": false, "headless": true }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("codingfrontend/99acres-projects-search-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
