## 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

## 🏙️ Property Finder Scraper — UAE & Gulf Real Estate Listings

Scrape **Property Finder property listings** across the **UAE and the Gulf** as clean, structured **JSON, CSV, Excel or XML**. Point it at any Property Finder search — **buy or rent**, any city, area, property type, price range or number of bedrooms — and it returns one tidy row per property: **price, title, description, bedrooms, bathrooms, size, location, coordinates, images, amenities, reference, brokerage** and the **listing URL**. Perfect for real-estate market research, price comparison, valuation, investment analysis and lead generation.

### What does Property Finder Scraper do?

This actor turns Property Finder search results into a ready-to-use dataset. Open [Property Finder](https://www.propertyfinder.ae) (or its regional sites for Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Egypt), set up exactly the search you want — for sale or for rent, apartments or villas, a specific community, a price band, a minimum number of bedrooms — then paste the results-page URL straight from your browser. The scraper walks every results page and collects each property with rich, structured fields.

Want the fullest data? Turn on **Fetch full details** and it opens each property's own page for the complete description, full image gallery and amenities. You can also feed it a list of individual listing URLs directly.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchUrls` (type: `array`):

One or more Property Finder search-result page URLs to scrape. Open Property Finder (propertyfinder.ae / .qa / .bh / .sa / .eg), apply any filters you want — buy or rent, city, area, property type, price, beds — then copy the results page URL from your browser and paste it here. The scraper follows the search's own pagination automatically.

## `propertyUrls` (type: `array`):

Optional. A list of individual Property Finder listing page URLs to scrape directly, one full-detail row per URL. Use this when you already have specific listings in mind instead of a search.

## `fetchDetails` (type: `boolean`):

For each listing found in a search, also open its own page to collect the fullest available payload (full description, complete image gallery and amenities). This makes runs slower but returns richer data.

## `maxItemsPerUrl` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of properties to collect from each search URL (0 = no per-URL limit).

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Overall cap on the number of properties collected across all URLs (0 = no overall limit; collect everything).

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional. Proxy settings for the run. Not required — the scraper works without a proxy. Enable only if you specifically want to route requests through a proxy.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searchUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.propertyfinder.ae/en/search?c=1&t=1&fu=0&rp=y&ob=mr"
    }
  ],
  "fetchDetails": false,
  "maxItemsPerUrl": 100,

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).
