They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. 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. - **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use). - **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`. - **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`. - **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`. - **Any other language** — 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 ## Carousell Products Scraper Actor Extract **product listing data from [Carousell](https://www.carousell.sg)** — title, price, seller details, deal method, detail attributes, likes, and more — from any category page, search-results page, or individual product page, without writing a single line of code. Just add a URL and get structured JSON or CSV output in minutes. ![Carousell Products Scraper](https://i.postimg.cc/9fywWG52/Chat-GPT-Image-Aug-13-2026-09-27-37-PM.png) Carousell is one of Southeast Asia's largest classifieds marketplaces, and its listings change constantly as sellers post and re-list items. Carousell Products Scraper lets you pull structured, up-to-date listing data on demand or on a schedule, so you can track pricing trends, monitor specific categories, or feed listings into your own catalog or analytics pipeline. Because it runs on the Apify platform, you get API access, one-click scheduling, and integrations with tools like Make, Zapier, and Google Sheets out of the box — no infrastructure to maintain. ### ✨ Features - **Product listing extraction** — pulls title, price, currency, description, photos, variant options, and detail attributes (condition, model, storage, etc.) from individual listing pages. - **Pagination support** — automatically loads more results on category and search pages ("Show more" / infinite scroll) to collect as many listings as you need. - **Proxy support** — built-in residential proxy support to reliably get past Carousell's anti-bot protection. - **Seller and engagement data** — captures seller handle, rating, review count, years on Carousell, number of likes, and how many people want the item. ### 🔧 Input Configuration | Field | Type | Required | Default | Description | | -------------------- | ------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `startUrls` | array | — | `https://www.carousell.sg/categories/beauty-personal-care-11/fragrance-deodorants-1663/?search=perfume&t-search_query_source=ss_dropdown` | Carousell category page, search-result page, or individual product page URLs to start crawling from. | | `search` | string | — | — | Optional keyword search to run instead of (or in addition to) Start URLs. | | `maxItems` | integer | — | `1` | Maximum number of product listings to extract per start URL or search query. | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | — | Apify Residential proxy (Singapore) | Proxy settings. Residential proxies are used by default — Carousell serves a Cloudflare challenge to non-residential IPs. | **Supported URL types:** - Category pages — `https://www.carousell.sg/categories/...` - Search-result pages — `https://www.carousell.sg/search/...` - Individual product pages — `https://www.carousell.sg/p/...` **Sample input:** ```json { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.carousell.sg/categories/beauty-personal-care-11/fragrance-deodorants-1663/?search=perfume&t-search_query_source=ss_dropdown" } ], "maxItems": 1, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"], "apifyProxyCountry": "SG" } } ``` Input Page Example Screenshot ![Input Page Example](https://i.postimg.cc/02pNK9XT/image.png) ### 📦 Output Each scraped listing is stored as a single item in the dataset, viewable in the **Overview** table on the Output tab. You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel. **Sample output:** ```json { "url": "https://www.carousell.sg/p/samsung-galaxy-note-8-pokemon-go-gps-spoof-fake-gps-android-phone-1094156962/", "title": "Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Pokemon Go GPS Spoof Fake GPS Android Phone", "price": "250.00", "priceCurrency": "SGD", "categories": ["Mobile Phones & Gadgets", "Mobile Phones", "Android Phones", "Samsung"], "isCertified": false, "isFreeShipping": false, "description": "My beloved Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is up for sale.

[Sign up](https://apify.com/sign-up) for a free Apify account — includes **$5 monthly credit**. 2. Open the actor page and click **Try for free**. 3. Fill in the **Input** fields (start URL or search query is required). 4. Click **Start** and wait for the run to complete. 5. Download results from the **Output** tab in JSON, CSV, or Excel format. You can also run this actor via the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2) or integrate it directly into your workflows using [Zapier](https://zapier.com/apps/apify), [Make](https://www.make.com/), or [n8n](https://n8n.io/). ### ⚠️ Limitations & Known Issues - **Login-required pages** — The actor cannot access content behind authentication (e.g. private messages, saved offers). - **Rate limiting** — Heavy usage may trigger Cloudflare challenges; the built-in residential proxy configuration helps minimize this. - **Layout changes** — Carousell periodically updates its page layout, which can occasionally affect specific fields until selectors are updated. ### 📝 Notes - **Proxy recommended for large-scale scraping** — For high-volume runs, keep the default Apify Residential proxy enabled to avoid blocks. - **API integration** — This actor can be called as an API from any automation platform (Zapier, Make, n8n, custom scripts). - **Data consistency with proxies** — When using proxies with multiple IP locations, some data (e.g. prices, availability) may vary by region. ### 🔗 Other Actors | Scraper | Description | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [🚗 Cheapest Cars & Bids Scraper](https://apify.com/confidential_gnat/cheapest-carsandbids-scraper) | Scrapes the cheapest vehicle listings from Cars & Bids, making it easy to discover the best-value auction deals. | | [🔍 Incidecoder Scraper](https://apify.com/confidential_gnat/whois-com) | Extracts cosmetic ingredient and product information from Incidecoder for research and analysis. | | [🎟️ Church Finder Scraper \[💰Free\]](https://apify.com/confidential_gnat/churchfinder-scraper) | Scrape church listings and profiles from Church Finder.
