Leboncoin.fr Product Search Scraper - Advanced Marketplace Data Extraction Tool

Introduction

Leboncoin.fr stands as France's premier classified ads platform, serving as the go-to marketplace for millions of French users seeking everything from cars and real estate to holiday rentals and everyday items. With over 28 million monthly unique visitors, leboncoin is France's #1 private sales site and #2 most popular ecommerce platform. For businesses, researchers, and data analysts, accessing this vast repository of marketplace data manually is time-consuming and impractical.

The Leboncoin.fr scraper addresses this challenge by providing automated, efficient data extraction from one of France's most valuable commercial data sources. Whether you're conducting market research, monitoring competitor pricing, or analyzing consumer trends, this scraper transforms hours of manual browsing into minutes of automated data collection. With more than 60 million ads across 70+ categories ranging from real estate to consumer goods, Leboncoin represents an unprecedented dataset for understanding the French marketplace economy.

Comprehensive Scraper Overview

The Leboncoin.fr Product Search Scraper is a sophisticated data extraction tool designed specifically for navigating the complex structure of France's largest classified ads platform. Unlike generic scraping solutions, this tool understands the unique categorization system, pricing formats, and multilingual content that characterizes the French marketplace.

This scraper excels in handling diverse product categories including automotive listings, real estate properties, holiday rentals, electronics, fashion, and professional services. The tool's intelligent parsing capabilities ensure accurate extraction of French-specific data formats, including European pricing conventions, postal codes, and regional location data.

The target audience includes market researchers analyzing French consumer behavior, e-commerce businesses monitoring competitive pricing, real estate professionals tracking property trends, automotive dealers studying car market dynamics, and data scientists requiring structured French marketplace data for analysis. The scraper's robust architecture makes it equally valuable for small businesses conducting local market research and large enterprises requiring comprehensive marketplace intelligence.

Input Format

The scraper accepts configuration through a JSON object with several key parameters:

Scrape with URLs:

{
  "max_retries_per_url": 2, // Maximum number of retry attempts for each URL
  "proxy": { // Proxy configuration to avoid bot detection
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL" 
    ],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "FR" // Choose a country that matches your target data location
  },
  "max_items_per_url": 20, // Total number of items you want to scrape
  "urls": [ // Listing page URLs to scrape
    "https://www.leboncoin.fr/carte/locations_saisonnieres?holidays_real_estate_type=chalet",
    "https://www.leboncoin.fr/c/voitures/u_car_brand:AUDI",
    "https://www.leboncoin.fr/c/ventes_immobilieres/real_estate_type:2"
  ],
  "ignore_url_failures": true // Continue scraping even if some URLs fail
}

The urls parameter: List of listing page URLs that you want to scrape. You can add URLs one by one, or use the Bulk edit section to add a prepared list.

The ignore_url_failures parameter: If set to true, the scraper will continue running even if some URLs fail to be scraped after reaching the maximum number of retries. This ensures that one problematic URL doesn't stop your entire scraping job.

When you provide a list of URLs for scraping, all options in the "Scrape with search filters" section will be disabled. The system will only collect data from the URLs you specified.

Scrape with Search Filters:

{
  "max_retries_per_url": 2, // Maximum number of retry attempts for each search filter
  "proxy": { // Proxy configuration to avoid bot detection
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL" 
    ],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "FR" // Choose a country that matches your target data location
  },
  "max_items_per_url": 20, // Total number of items you want to scrape
  "keyword": "iPhone", // Search keyword to find items
  "sort_by": "time-desc", // Sort items by specific criteria
  "page": 1 // Starting page number for search results
}

The keyword parameter: The search keyword to find items (e.g., "iPhone", "vélo", "appartement", "voiture").

The sort_by parameter: Sort items by various criteria:

• "" - Relevance (most relevant first)
• "time-desc" - More recent (newest listings first)
• "time-asc" - Older (oldest listings first)
• "price-asc" - Prices increasing (low to high)
• "price-desc" - Prices descending (high to low)

The page parameter: Starting page number for scraping, useful for continuing interrupted scrapes or targeting specific result ranges.

When using search filters for scraping, you need to leave the urls field empty (or set it to null) in the "Scrape with URLs" configuration.

General Options:

The max_items_per_url parameter: Limits the number of items extracted from each listing page or search results page. The default value is 20, providing a manageable batch size while allowing for comprehensive data collection.

The max_retries_per_url parameter: Sets the maximum number of retry attempts for each URL or search filters if the scrape is detected as a bot or the page fails to load. The default value is 2, providing a good balance between thoroughness and efficiency.

The proxy parameter: Proxy configuration is essential for maintaining anonymity and avoiding detection. The residential proxy option ensures that your scraping activities appear as legitimate browsing, reducing the risk of being blocked or rate-limited. You should choose a country that matches the location of the website you're scraping (e.g., France/FR for leboncoin.fr).

Step-by-Step Usage Guide

Step 1: Choose Your Scraping Approach

Option A - URL-Based Configuration: Begin by configuring your target URLs based on specific research objectives. Navigate to Leboncoin.fr and use the website's category navigation and filtering features to find the listings you need. For market analysis, include category-specific URLs covering your industry focus (e.g., cars, real estate, electronics). For competitive intelligence, target brand or location-specific searches. Copy the complete URLs with all filter parameters.

Option B - Filter-Based Configuration: Define your search parameters using the built-in filters:

• Set keyword for specific items or brands (e.g., "iPhone", "Audi", "appartement Paris")
• Select sort_by to organize results (relevance, newest first, price sorting)
• Set page to start from a specific results page

Ensure proxy settings align with your scraping volume and frequency requirements (use French/FR proxies for optimal performance).

Step 2: Parameter Optimization Set max_items_per_url based on your data volume needs and processing capacity. For initial market exploration, 20-50 items per URL provides substantial insights without overwhelming downstream analysis. Adjust max_retries_per_url based on network reliability and time sensitivity requirements. Enable ignore_url_failures for robust scraping.

Step 3: Execution and Monitoring Launch the scraper during off-peak hours to minimize detection risks and ensure optimal performance. Monitor extraction progress and adjust parameters if encountering consistent failures or rate limiting.

Step 4: Data Validation and Processing Validate extracted data for completeness and accuracy, paying special attention to price formatting, location data, and image URL accessibility. Implement data cleaning procedures to handle French-specific formatting and ensure consistency across records.

Best Practices:

Method Selection:

• Use URL-based scraping for complex category hierarchies or when you need specific pre-filtered results (e.g., cars by brand, real estate by type)
• Use filter-based scraping for simple keyword searches with standard sorting options
• Combine both approaches: use filters for broad discovery, then URLs for targeted deep dives

Scraping Strategy:

• Rotate proxy locations regularly for large-scale operations (always use FR proxies for Leboncoin)
• Implement respectful delays between requests to maintain site accessibility
• Store extracted data in structured formats enabling efficient analysis and querying
• Regularly update URL patterns to accommodate site changes and new product categories

Sorting Strategy:

• Use "time-desc" (newest first) to track new listings in real-time for competitive monitoring
• Use "price-asc" or "price-desc" for price-sensitive market research
• Use relevance (default) for general browsing and keyword-based searches

Filter Optimization:

• For filter-based scraping: Use French keywords for better results (e.g., "voiture", "appartement", "vélo")
• Combine specific keywords with appropriate sorting (e.g., keyword: "iPhone 15", sort_by: "price-asc")
• Use pagination systematically to collect large datasets across multiple pages

Common Scenarios:

• Real-time monitoring: Use filter-based with sort_by: "time-desc" and run regularly to catch new listings
• Price analysis: Use sort_by: "price-asc" or "price-desc" to identify market price ranges
• Historical analysis: Use sort_by: "time-asc" to analyze older listings
• Category research: Use URL-based for specific categories with complex filters already applied

Error Handling:

• For URL-based: Verify URL formatting matches Leboncoin's structure
• For filter-based: Test keywords in French and verify spelling
• Enable ignore_url_failures to continue scraping even if some requests fail
• Monitor for rate limiting and adjust request frequency accordingly
