FAQ

Which countries work? Live storefronts: Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Philippines, Taiwan, Indonesia. Australia, New Zealand, and Canada paused new sign-ups in 2023; the domains are still selectable if pages resolve.

Is this a Carousell Malaysia / Hong Kong / Taiwan scraper? Yes — set country to MY, HK, TW, PH, or ID. Category slugs differ by region.

Keyword browse vs /search/?query=? /{keyword}/q/ targets peer-to-peer listings. Carousell’s /search/?query= surface often skews toward Certified products for phones. Category URLs are the most stable SSR path; keywords try /q/ then /search/.

Why residential proxy? Cloudflare challenges datacenter IPs (403 / “Just a moment…”). Pin Apify residential to the same country as country.

Does it paginate? The first HTML page has no ?page=. With deepPagination the Actor partitions by price band (and subdivides saturated bands) so you get more than the first ~48 cards.

Personal data? Only public listing/profile fields a logged-out visitor can see. No inbox, phone, or email harvesting.
