It has two run modes. 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. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## 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. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ## 2dehands Car Scraper — Belgian car listings, prices and dealers 2dehands is the largest classifieds site in Belgium, with around 100,000 live car listings from dealers and private sellers. This Actor turns the car listings into a clean table: what the car is, what it costs, and who is selling it. Press Start. The defaults return listings with no configuration needed. ### What a row looks like ```json { "title": "Mercedes SLK", "make": "Mercedes-Benz", "model": "SLK", "year": 2008, "mileage_km": 101700, "fuel_type": "Benzine", "gearbox": "Handgeschakeld", "engine_capacity_ccm": 1796, "price": 11650, "currency": "EUR", "city": "Oudenaarde+Deel Ooike", "seller_name": "lee cars", "seller_type": "professional", "dealer_id": "27326326", "posted_at": "2026-09-17", "source_url": "https://www.2dehands.be/v/auto-s/mercedes-benz/m2430541516-mercedes-slk", "thumbnail_url": "https://images.2dehands.com/api/v1/hz-twh-pro-listing/images/3c3ac282-ff5a-4179-9ede-7b8d3699040f?rule=ecg_mp_eps$_82.jpg", "external_id": "m2430541516" } ``` Each row has 24 columns and most carry 22 of them, because 2dehands does not fill in every detail: in a 100-row sample the engine size was there 21 times and the engine power 6. Every row also has `source_site` and `scraped_at`. About one listing in six is a van or light commercial vehicle, which 2dehands files under cars. Where a dealer is identified, the identity comes with the row — no second request and no extra charge. Read this part before you buy: **a seller is named only when 2dehands itself labels the listing as a business.** That was 18 in 100 rows on a sample run, and 14 in 100 the day before, so expect it to move. 2dehands leaves most sellers unlabelled, and an unlabelled seller is treated as a private person: `seller_name`, `seller_url`, `dealer_id` and `seller_type` all come back empty. `seller_url` needs a labelled dealer who also lists a website, which no row in that sample had. Some of those unlabelled sellers really are dealers, and this Actor will not guess — a profile picture or a website in a profile is not proof of a business, and guessing would mean publishing private people's names. You still get the car, the price and the city on every row. Phone numbers, email addresses and sellers' descriptions are never collected, for anyone. ### What people use it for Price monitoring, where you re-run a saved search on a schedule and watch a segment of the Belgian market move. Research on the labelled dealers, where the seller fields matter as much as the cars. And feeding a comparison or valuation tool that needs Belgian market data it cannot get from an official API. ### Input | Field | What it does | |---|---| | `searchTerms` | Makes to filter by. Leave empty for everything. | | `postedAfter` | Only keep listings posted on or after this date (ISO 8601). 2dehands shows dates by day, so this filter works by day. Handy for daily runs that should return just what is new. | | `maxItems` | Hard stop, so your bill is predictable. | | `proxyConfiguration` | Off by default. Most runs do not need one. | There is no `location` input. 2dehands only offers distance filtering through an internal endpoint that its robots.txt asks crawlers not to use, and this Actor respects that. If you pass a location anyway, the run stops and tells you, rather than quietly returning the whole country and charging you for it. Filter by `city` in your own pipeline instead. ### Pricing $3.00 per 1,000 listings, dropping to $1.50 per 1,000 on higher Apify plans, plus $0.005 each time a run starts. There is no separate charge for dealer details, and platform usage is not passed on to you. You are charged for rows you actually receive. If you set a maximum charge for the run, it stops cleanly at that limit instead of overshooting it. ### Scope and limits Public listings only. Nothing behind a login. 2dehands' listing pages are not strictly sorted by date, so `postedAfter` checks two full pages of older listings before it stops, to avoid missing new ones that sit behind promoted ads. If 2dehands changes its page structure, the run goes red. It does not return zero rows and report success — a silent scraper is worse than a broken one, because you find out weeks later. A run that is blocked or cut short partway also goes red, even though the rows it did collect are in the dataset and yours to keep. Red here means "this is not the complete answer", not "you lost the data" — on a schedule, a run that quietly came back short is the thing you most need to hear about. Every run also publishes the site's own result count next to the rows it delivered, so you can see "60 rows of 9,969 the site reports" without going back to the site to check. That number is what the site says, not a promise about what one run returns. ### Same data, other countries This Actor shares its output shape with the Marktplaats Car Scraper (Netherlands), the Otomoto Scraper (Poland) and the Standvirtual Scraper (Portugal). A parser you write for one keeps working on the others, and on the countries added next. ### Support Open an issue on this Actor with the run ID and your input. Answered within one business day. # Actor input Schema ## `searchTerms` (type: `array`): Makes to filter by, e.g. volkswagen, bmw, mercedes-benz. Leave empty for all car listings. ## `postedAfter` (type: `string`): Return only listings posted on or after this date. 2dehands publishes the day, not the time, so this filters by day, e.g. 2026-09-01. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Stop after this many records. Keeps your cost predictable. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Off by default. Turn on (residential, in the site's country) only if runs start getting blocked with 403/429. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchTerms": [], "postedAfter": "", "maxItems": 100, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `overview` (type: `string`): All Belgian car listings from this run: what the car is, what it costs, and where it is. ## `pricing` (type: `string`): The same listings reduced to the fields used for price analysis and market monitoring. ## `dealers` (type: `string`): The same listings focused on who is selling them. ## `runReport` (type: `string`): Pages read, records delivered, errors, and the verdict (ok, degraded or broken). # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.

Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations). ## OpenAPI specification Download the OpenAPI definition: https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/b6E2ZBgybEjSvqUmT/builds/BPnhjEpVu9XKttyPe/openapi.json
