## What's an Apify Actor?
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.

# README
## 🛒 OLX Portugal Scraper
Are you building a market analysis tool, tracking second-hand prices, or sourcing specific items? **[OLX Portugal](https://www.olx.pt)** is the country's leading classifieds platform, connecting buyers and sellers across dozens of categories—from electronics and cars to real estate and furniture.
This **OLX Portugal Scraper** allows you to extract rich, structured data directly from the OLX search API. You can instantly scrape and export up to **2000 listings** as clean, structured data. It is built for **general classifieds** (electronics, cars, furniture, etc.) and works just as well for **real estate (imóveis)**—houses, apartments, and land—when you use an olx.pt property search or category URL.
### 💡 Perfect for...
- **Market Analysts:** Track pricing trends, availability, and demand for specific product categories across Portugal.
- **Resellers & Deal Hunters:** Monitor new listings in real-time to find underpriced items or rare collectibles before anyone else.
- **Real Estate & Auto Professionals:** Monitor **imóveis** listings (sale and rent) alongside vehicles—prices, locations, map coordinates, and seller signals export the same way as other categories.
- **E-commerce Competitor Analysis:** Keep an eye on business sellers, pricing strategies, and promoted listings.
### ✨ Features
- 🔓 **Full Search Power:** Scrape any OLX.pt search or category URL—including **Imóveis**—keeping all the filters (price range, typology, location, etc.) you applied in your browser.
- 🔍 **Smart Sorting:** Mirror the on-page sort options (same labels as on olx.pt): **`Mais recente`** (newest first), **`Anúncios recomendados`** (recommended / featured ordering), **`Mais barato`** (cheapest first), **`Mais caro`** (most expensive first).
- ⚡ **Fast & Structured:** Get up to 2000 rich listing profiles per run, including prices, locations, seller types, and high-resolution images.
### 📦 What's inside the data?
For every listing scraped, you get:
- **Core Info:** `id`, `title`, `url`, `created_time`, `last_refresh_time`, `description`
- **Media:** `img_url` (first image) and `photos` (full list of high-res image links)
- **Pricing:** `price`, `currency`, `negotiable`
- **Location:** `city`, `district`, `region`
- **Seller Details:** `business` (boolean), `contact_name`, `contact_phone`, `contact_chat`, `shop_subdomain`
- **Item Specifics:** `category`, `state` (condition), and a clean `params` list with all custom attributes (e.g., brand, model, size)
- **Visibility:** `highlighted`, `top_ad`, `urgent`, and other promotion flags
### 🚀 How to use
1. **Get your Search URL:** Go to [OLX Portugal](https://www.olx.pt), search for an item or browse a category, apply any filters (condition, price, location), and copy the URL from your browser.
2. **Enter the URL:** Paste it into the `input_url` field.
3. **Choose Sorting (Optional):** Pick one of the Portuguese options above—for example **`Mais recente`** if you want the newest listings first.
4. **Set Limit:** Choose how many listings to collect (you can scrape up to 2000).
5. **Click Start** and let the scraper pull the data.
6. Export your structured list as a CSV, Excel spreadsheet, or JSON file.
