## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. 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.

# README

## Goo-net Japan Used Cars Scraper

Scrape used car listings from **[goo-net.com](https://www.goo-net.com/)** — one of Japan's largest used car portals — with prices, maker, and dealer information.

### Why This Data

- Japan exported a record **1.71 million used vehicles in 2025** (JUMVEA) — a massive global market
- Used car exporters (BE FORWARD, carused.jp, SBT Japan, etc.) constantly need fresh inventory and pricing data
- **JDM (Japanese Domestic Market)** models are highly valued worldwide
- Zero dedicated cross-listing competitor on Apify Store at launch

### Features

- ✅ Server-side rendered pages (no browser needed — fast & cheap)
- ✅ Nationwide inventory (47 prefectures) with pagination
- ✅ Model name, price (JPY), maker, image, dealer shop, and detail URL per listing
- ✅ Prefecture filter (e.g. `01` = Hokkaido, `13` = Tokyo, `47` = Okinawa)
- ✅ EUC-JP encoding handled automatically
- ✅ Runs on Apify proxy — no IP blocking issues

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `searchKeyword` | string | empty | Car model / brand keyword (e.g. `ハイエース`, `アクア`). Empty = full scan |
| `prefecture` | string | empty | Prefecture code `01`–`47`. Empty = all Japan |
| `maxItems` | integer | 100 | Maximum number of listings to collect |
| `maxPages` | integer | 5 | Maximum number of pages to crawl |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | auto | Apify proxy (auto) |

### Output

Each item contains: `itemId`, `title`, `maker`, `price` (JPY), `imageUrl`, `detailUrl`, `shop`, `source`, `scrapedAt`.

Example:

```json
{
  "itemId": "988026080400207235003",
  "title": "ハイエースバン スーパーGL",
  "maker": "トヨタ",
  "price": 2796000,
  "detailUrl": "https://www.goo-net.com/usedcar/spread/goo/15/988026080400207235003.html",
  "shop": "ハイエース／キャラバン専門店 ファイントラスト土岐店",
  "source": "goo-net"
}
```

### Use Cases

- 🚗 Used car exporters & importers (inventory tracking, pricing research)
- 📊 Market researchers (JDM market trends, price analysis)
- 🔍 JDM enthusiasts hunting specific models

### Pricing

Pay per result: **$0.002 per item** ($2 per 1,000 listings).

### Legal

- Respects goo-net's robots.txt (search endpoints excluded; category pages allowed)
- For research and legitimate business use. Check goo-net's terms before commercial use.
- Rate-limited by design (3 retries, exponential backoff).

### Tech

- Python 3.11 + httpx + BeautifulSoup
- Apify Actor SDK v3
- EUC-JP decode support

echo '{
  "searchKeyword": "",
  "prefecture": "",
  "bodyType": "",
  "statsKeyword": ""
}' |
apify call fruitful_quintessence/goo-net-car-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,fruitful_quintessence/goo-net-car-scraper"

}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
