Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Marktplaats Search Scraper Search [Marktplaats.nl](https://www.marktplaats.nl) listings programmatically and get clean, structured JSON — with price & distance filters, multi-query fan-out, and optional **deal analysis** that flags underpriced items. ### What it does - 🔎 **Search any term(s)** — `iphone 13`, `festool ts55`, `racefiets`… multiple queries are merged and deduplicated. - 💶 **Price filters** — set a min and/or max price in EUR. - 📍 **Location filters** — search around a Dutch postcode within an adjustable radius. - ↕️ **Sorting** — relevance, price (low→high / high→low), distance, or newest. - 🔥 **Deal analysis (optional)** — computes a fair-value median across results and tags each listing as `fire` (≤72% of median), `cheap` (≤90%) or `normal`, plus a trap flag for likely defective/locked items. - 🛡️ **Robust at scale** — proxy rotation, user-agent rotation, retries with exponential backoff, and polite rate limiting. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `queries` | array of strings | **Required.** Search terms. | | `minPrice` | integer | Minimum price in EUR. | | `maxPrice` | integer | Maximum price in EUR. | | `postcode` | string | Dutch postcode to search around (e.g. `1012JS`). Empty = country-wide. | | `distanceKm` | integer | Search radius in km (default `25`). | | `sort` | enum | `relevance`, `price_asc`, `price_desc`, `distance`, `newest`. | | `maxItems` | integer | Max listings to return (default `100`, max `1000`). | | `dealAnalysis` | boolean | Add median-based deal tags (default `false`). | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | Proxy settings (Apify Proxy on by default). | #### Example input ```json { "queries": ["festool ts55", "festool ts 55"], "minPrice": 100, "maxPrice": 400, "postcode": "5017JS", "distanceKm": 50, "sort": "price_asc", "maxItems": 200, "dealAnalysis": true } ```` ### Output Each dataset item is one listing: ```json { "id": "m2390242669", "title": "Festool TS55 invalzaag", "description": "Nette staat, weinig gebruikt…", "priceEur": 285.0, "priceType": "FIXED", "priceTypeLabel": "fixed price", "city": "Boxtel", "country": "Nederland", "distanceKm": 18.0, "latitude": 51.59, "longitude": 5.32, "img": "https://images.marktplaats.com/api/v1/…jpg", "seller": "ToolDeals", "reserved": false, "date": "18 apr 26", "categoryId": 653, "url": "https://www.marktplaats.nl/v/…/m2390242669-festool-ts55", "dealTag": "fire", "priceRatio": 0.68, "medianEur": 420, "trapSuspect": false } ``` # Actor input Schema ## `queries` (type: `array`): One or more search terms. Each query is searched separately and results are merged & deduplicated. ## `minPrice` (type: `integer`): Only return listings priced at or above this amount. Listings without a price are dropped when a bound is set. ## `maxPrice` (type: `integer`): Only return listings priced at or below this amount. ## `postcode` (type: `string`): Dutch postcode to search around (e.g. 1012JS). Leave empty for country-wide search. ## `distanceKm` (type: `integer`): Search radius around the postcode in kilometres. Only used when a postcode is set. ## `sort` (type: `string`): How to order the results. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of listings to return (after filtering). ## `dealAnalysis` (type: `boolean`): Compute a fair-value median over the result set and tag each priced listing with a price ratio: 'fire' (≤72% of median), 'cheap' (≤90%) or 'normal'. Also flags likely traps (defective / locked items) from the description. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxies to use. Residential proxies are recommended for reliable results at scale. ## Actor input object example ```json { "queries": [ "iphone 13" ], "distanceKm": 25, "sort": "relevance", "maxItems": 100, "dealAnalysis": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `listings` (type: `string`): All scraped listings as dataset items (one per ad). ## `listingsCsv` (type: `string`): The same listings exported as CSV. ## `summary` (type: `string`): Queries run, items fetched and items returned after filtering. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "queries": [ "iphone 13" ], "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("ingenious_gate/marktplaats-search-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
