🛠 Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: I get "403 Forbidden" errors. A: This means OLX blocked the IP. Please switch to Residential Proxies in the input configuration.

Q: Some results are empty/null. A: If a listing is removed (410 Gone) or pending moderation, data might be unavailable.

Q: Can I scrape other countries? A: This actor is optimized for OLX.ua (Ukraine). Check my profile for other versions (OLX.pl, etc.).
