## What's an Apify Actor?

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

## Facebook Marketplace Scraper HTTP

Scrape Facebook Marketplace listings from any search, category or location URL. Extracts title, price, city, subtitle, sold status, image and listing URL. No browser, no login, no proxy required. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel.

### Features

- Fast and lightweight — runs in under 10 seconds
- Zero configuration — no login, no API key required
- Low memory usage — up to 4x cheaper per run than browser-based scrapers
- Works on any Marketplace URL (search, category, city, filters)
- Schedule runs, trigger via API, integrate with Zapier / Make / webhooks

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `startUrls` | Array | One or more Facebook Marketplace URLs to scrape |
| `maxItems` | Integer | Maximum number of listings to return (default: 40) |
| `includeImages` | Boolean | Include thumbnail image URL (default: true) |

**Supported URL formats:**
- `https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/paris/vehicles`
- `https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/nyc/search?query=bitcoin`
- `https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/111518152200515/search?category_id=...`

Just copy-paste the URL from your browser — all filters (location, category, keywords, price range, radius) are preserved automatically.

### Output

Each listing is saved as a JSON object in the dataset:

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `id` | String | Unique listing ID |
| `title` | String | Listing title |
| `price` | String | Formatted price (e.g. `"1 500 €"`, `"Free"`) |
| `city` | String | City / location |
| `distance` | String | First subtitle — vehicle mileage, condition, etc. (`null` if absent) |
| `isSold` | Boolean | Whether the listing is marked as sold |
| `listingUrl` | String | Direct URL to the listing |
| `image` | String | Thumbnail image URL |
| `scrapedAt` | String | ISO 8601 timestamp of when the item was scraped |

### Example output

```json
{
  "id": "1234567890123456",
  "title": "2018 Volkswagen T-Roc",
  "price": "18 500 €",
  "city": "Paris",
  "distance": "87 K km",
  "isSold": false,
  "listingUrl": "https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1234567890123456/",
  "image": "https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/v/...",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-04-18T13:00:00.000Z"
}
````

### Limitations

- Maximum ~24 listings per URL (Facebook sends one page of SSR results)
- `distance` is `null` for categories that do not include a subtitle (e.g. general search)
- Images require `includeImages: true` and are CDN URLs, not downloaded files
