## 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

## Subito Scraper 🇮🇹

Extract listings from **Subito.it — Italy's #1 classifieds marketplace** — at scale, without an account or API key. Search any keyword or paste category URLs and get clean JSON, CSV or Excel: **price in EUR, location (region + city), seller type (private vs business), description, attributes and photos.**

Whether you track Italian second-hand prices, hunt resale opportunities, monitor a category, or build B2B lead lists of business sellers, this scraper turns Subito into a structured dataset in minutes.

***

### 🔑 What this scraper does

- 🔎 **Search by keyword** — `iphone`, `volkswagen golf`, `divano`, `bici`, anything across every category.
- 🔗 **Or paste URLs** — copy a Subito search/category page from your browser and scrape it directly, with your on-site filters preserved.
- 💶 **Prices in EUR** — the amount plus currency, ready for analysis.
- 👤 **Seller type** — **private vs business** — great for B2B lead generation and separating hobby sellers from dealers.
- 📍 **Location** — the region and city/province shown on each ad.
- 🕒 **Publish date** — the exact timestamp each ad went live.
- 🗂️ **Category & attributes** — category name plus category-specific fields (condition, shipping, phone type, etc.).

### 📝 Example inputs

#### 1. Simple keyword search

```json
{
  "searchTerms": ["iphone"],
  "maxItems": 200
}
```

#### 2. B2B lead list — businesses only

```json
{
  "searchTerms": ["climatizzatore", "pompa di calore"],
  "sellerType": "business",
  "maxItems": 1000
}
```

#### 3. Price-filtered resale hunt (private sellers)

```json
{
  "searchTerms": ["macbook pro"],
  "sellerType": "private",
  "priceMin": 300,
  "priceMax": 1200,
  "maxItems": 500
}
```

#### 4. Multiple keywords at once

```json
{
  "searchTerms": ["ps5", "xbox series x", "nintendo switch"],
  "maxItems": 900,
  "maxPagesPerSearch": 10
}
```

#### 5. Scrape a category or filtered URL directly

```json
{
  "startUrls": ["https://www.subito.it/annunci-italia/vendita/auto/?q=golf"],
  "maxItems": 1000
}
```

When you use **Start URLs**, whatever filters you set on the Subito website (category, region, price, etc.) are already baked into the URL, so the scraper follows them exactly.

***

### 🔗 How to use Start URLs

1. Go to **Subito.it** in your browser.
2. Search and apply any filters you like — category, region, price band, etc.
3. Copy the URL from the address bar.
4. Paste it into the **Start URLs** field.

You can add as many URLs as you like and mix them with search terms. Each source is paginated automatically up to your **Max Pages per Search** limit.

### 👥 Who uses this

- **Sales & growth teams** building Italian B2B lead lists.

***

### 🎛️ Filters explained

- **Search Terms** — keywords across all categories. Each term is searched separately, and results are combined and de-duplicated.
- **Start URLs** — paste any Subito search or category URL. Filters embedded in the URL are respected.
- **Seller Type** — `Any`, `Private sellers`, or `Businesses / dealers`. Businesses are professional advertisers, making them ideal for lead generation.
- **Min / Max Price (€)** — keep only listings inside your budget band.
- **Max Items** — cap the total number of listings collected across all searches (`0` = unlimited).
- **Max Pages per Search** — how many result pages to scrape per term / URL. Each page holds about 30 listings.

***

### ⚙️ Tips & best practices

- **Be specific with keywords.** `volkswagen golf gtd` returns tighter results than `auto`.
- **Use several focused terms** instead of one broad term to widen coverage while staying relevant.
- **Combine `sellerType: business` with a niche keyword** to build the cleanest B2B lead lists.
- **Use Start URLs for advanced targeting** — set category, region and price filters on the website first, then paste the URL.
- **Schedule runs** to monitor prices or catch new listings automatically.
- **Start small.** Run with a low `maxItems` first to preview the data, then scale up.
