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 ## Bayut Real Estate Scraper A high-performance, Playwright-powered scraper for [Bayut.com](https://www.bayut.com) — the leading real estate portal in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, and Bahrain. This actor uses a real Chromium browser to bypass Cloudflare protection and extract structured property data from Bayut at scale. ### Features - 🏠 **Property Listings** — Scrape search results or specific property detail pages - 👤 **Agent / Broker Profiles** — Extract agent contacts, BRN, and agency info - 🏢 **Agency Listings** — Scrape agency directories - 🌍 **Multi-Country Support** — UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain - 📞 **Contact Details** — Phone numbers, WhatsApp, email extracted from each listing - 📊 **Advanced Data** — Project info, similar transactions, price trends, mortgage data, regulatory info (DLD, RERA, BRN) - 🤖 **Cloudflare Bypass** — Uses Playwright with Apify residential proxies for reliable scraping ### Input | Field | Description | Example | |---|---|---| | `startUrls` | Direct property URLs or search URLs to scrape | `https://www.bayut.com/property/details-15081914.html` | | `country` | Target country (affects base URL) | `uae` | | `mode` | Scraping mode: `properties`, `agents`, `agencies` | `properties` | | `maxItems` | Max number of items to scrape | `50` | | `includeAdvancedData` | Include project info, transactions, trends, mortgage | `true` | | `proxyConfiguration` | Apify Proxy settings | `{ useApifyProxy: true }` | #### URL Types - **Search URL**: `https://www.bayut.com/to-rent/property/dubai/` — scrapes a list of properties - **Detail URL**: `https://www.bayut.com/property/details-15081914.html` — scrapes one specific property ### Output Each scraped item includes: ```json { "url": "https://www.bayut.com/property/details-15081914.html", "id": 15081914, "referenceNumber": "BAY-12345", "title": "Spacious 2BR Apartment in Downtown Dubai", "price": 120000, "currency": "AED", "purpose": "for-rent", "category": "Residential > Apartment", "location": "Downtown Dubai, Dubai, UAE", "beds": 2, "baths": 2, "areaSqFt": 1200, "completionStatus": "completed", "furnishingStatus": "furnished", "developer": "Emaar Properties", "buildingName": "Burj View Tower", "permitNumber": "DLD-12345", "amenities": ["Pool", "Gym", "Parking"], "description": "...", "photos": ["https://..."], "contactDetails": { "phoneNumber": "+971501234567", "whatsappNumber": "+971501234567", "email": "agent@agency.ae", "brokerName": "John Doe", "agencyName": "ABC Real Estate", "licenseNumber": "BRN-12345" } } ```` ### Proxy Configuration This actor requires **Apify Residential Proxies** to bypass Cloudflare protection on Bayut. Enable this in the proxy configuration settings before running. # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Provide either a SEARCH URL (e.g., https://www.bayut.com/to-rent/property/dubai/) to scrape multiple properties, or a DIRECT PROPERTY URL (e.g., https://www.bayut.com/property/details-12345.html) to scrape a specific property. The scraper will automatically detect and handle both flawlessly. ## `country` (type: `string`): Select the Bayut country site to scrape (if startUrls are empty). ## `mode` (type: `string`): What type of data do you want to crawl? ## `purpose` (type: `string`): Only used if Start URLs are auto-generated. Rent or Sale properties. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of items (listings/agents/guides) to scrape. ## `includeAdvancedData` (type: `boolean`): Scrape advanced data (Project Info, Trends, Mortgage, Regulatory, Transactions) for properties if available. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): ⚠️ REQUIRED: Use Apify Residential Proxy to bypass Cloudflare on Bayut. Without residential proxies, all requests will be blocked. ## Actor input object example ```json { "startUrls": [], "country": "uae", "mode": "properties", "purpose": "for-rent", "maxItems": 50, "includeAdvancedData": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # 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 = { "startUrls": [] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("datablow/bayut-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 📖?
