💡 What can you do with it?

• I am an auto dealer or reseller looking to monitor price benchmarks and active vehicle listings across specific models, years, and mileages in the Middle East.
• I am a real estate agent tracking historical property valuations, areas, and listing activity across major cities like Amman or Riyadh.
• I am a market-research analyst building weekly reports on consumer demand and pricing strategies in the MENA retail space.

🚗 Saudi used-car and MENA real-estate data

Run a country-specific search to build a Saudi used-car price feed or a MENA real-estate listing dataset. The guided Saudi routes support cars for sale plus apartments for sale or rent, with source-native price, location, sort, image, price-disclosure, and shop filters. Vehicle runs can also filter model year and mileage band; apartment runs can filter bedrooms, bathrooms, and surface area.

Guided vehicle and apartment routes are currently validated for the Saudi Arabia site. For another country, a different property subtype, or filters not shown in the form, paste an exact OpenSooq results URL into startUrls. Exact URLs always take precedence over every guided field.

✨ Tips and best practices

• Specify a country proxy. OpenSooq geolocates search results based on visitor IPs. Always configure your proxy configuration to route through the target country (e.g., country-JO for Jordan, country-SA for Saudi Arabia) to secure KSA-localized listing speeds and density.
• Use numeric location IDs in guided mode. OpenSooq serializes guided city and neighborhood filters as city_ids and nhood_ids. If you only have a location name or want a non-Saudi vertical, configure the search on OpenSooq and paste its complete results URL into startUrls.
• Bypass browser overhead. This scraper uses unblocked direct server data extraction, skipping slow web page loadings. This cuts your runtimes and platform compute costs by 90%!

❓ FAQ

Does it get blocked by OpenSooq?

Residential proxies are enabled by default to reduce regional access failures. If OpenSooq still returns a challenge, the Actor reports it as a blocked response instead of silently treating it as an empty search. Malformed payloads and source-shape changes are also reported separately, while a valid empty search completes normally.

Does it extract full seller phone numbers?

No. Phone numbers are masked by OpenSooq (last 2 digits hidden, e.g., 07996786XX) to prevent spam. The phoneRevealKey field is provided for reference, but full unmasking requires manual authentication on the OpenSooq platform.

How fresh is the data?

Extremely fresh. The scraper executes live requests on every query, retrieving the absolute latest classified listings posted on OpenSooq in real-time.

Are all 20 countries supported?

Yes. The scraper supports Jordan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, Iraq, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, Sudan, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Turkey, and Mauritania.

هل يدعم API السوق المفتوح بيانات السيارات والعقارات في السعودية؟

Yes. Select Saudi Arabia, then search a vehicle or property category directly, or provide an exact OpenSooq search URL to preserve the source filters.
