✨ What this Actor does / Key features

• 🛒 Any keyword or browse mode — search by term (iphone, bmw x5, квартира), or leave the query empty and browse by categoryId / locationId.
• 📦 Thousands per query — walks Avito search pagination up to ~page 99 per query, with a global cap you control.
• 💰 Full pricing — numeric price, the formatted display priceString (₽) and the previous/strike-through priceOld when present, all in RUB.
• 📍 Location & category — region/city name and ID (locationName / locationId) plus category slug and ID (categorySlug / categoryId) on every listing.
• 🖼️ Image galleries — the full list of listing photo URLs plus an image count (images / imagesCount).
• 🔗 Direct listing URL — the canonical url for every ad, ready to open or re-scrape for detail.
• ⚡ Direct HTTP + JSON extraction — reads Avito's public listings JSON; no headless browser, no DOM walking, no GraphQL token — fast and low-cost at scale.
• 🔁 Auto IP rotation + retry — a fresh Russian residential session per request; when Avito's firewall rate-limits an IP, the Actor rotates and retries instead of failing.
• 🛡️ Russian residential proxy, pre-configured — Apify Proxy · RESIDENTIAL · country RU by default; foreign IPs are blocked, so this is set up for you out of the box.
• 📤 Any format — export to JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML, or pull results via the Apify API and webhooks.

🚀 Quick start (3 steps)

1. Configure — add one or more keywords to searchQueries (e.g. iphone, macbook pro), or leave it empty and set a categoryId / locationId to browse. Set maxItemsPerQuery to control depth.
2. Run — click Start. The Actor paginates each query over a Russian residential proxy and streams listings into your dataset.
3. Get your data — open the Output tab and export to JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML, or pull it via the Apify API.

📥 Input

Give the Actor at least one searchQueries keyword, or a categoryId / locationId for browse mode. The proxy is pre-configured — leave it on the default.

Example — search electronics by keyword

{
  "searchQueries": ["iphone", "macbook pro"],
  "maxItemsPerQuery": 500,
  "maxResults": 2000,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "RU"
  }
}

Example — browse a category in Moscow (no keyword)

{
  "searchQueries": [],
  "categoryId": 9,
  "locationId": 637640,
  "maxItemsPerQuery": 1000,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "RU"
  }
}

Example — car market research (keyword + category)

{
  "searchQueries": ["bmw x5", "lada granta"],
  "categoryId": 9,
  "maxItemsPerQuery": 800,
  "maxResults": 5000
}

Field	Type	Description
searchQueries	array	Keywords to search on Avito.ru (e.g. iphone, bmw x5, квартира). Each becomes its own paginated task. Leave empty to browse by category / location only.
categoryId	integer	Optional Avito category ID to narrow results (e.g. 9 = electronics). Use with or without a search query.
locationId	integer	Optional Avito location ID to limit results to a region or city (e.g. 637640 = Moscow).
maxItemsPerQuery	integer	Listings to collect per query, paginated up to ~page 99. Default 1000.
maxResults	integer	Global cap on listings saved across all queries. 0 = unlimited.
proxyConfiguration	object	Russian residential proxy (required). Pre-configured to Apify Proxy · RESIDENTIAL · country RU — other countries are blocked.

Finding a category or location ID: browse avito.ru, apply a category and/or region filter, and read the numeric IDs from the resulting URL / page. Then set categoryId and/or locationId and leave searchQueries empty to browse that segment, or combine them with a keyword to narrow a search.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is it legal to scrape Avito.ru? The Actor only collects publicly available listing data. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with Avito's terms of service and applicable laws.

Does Avito.ru have a public API? Avito does not offer an open public data API for listings, so this Actor reads the site's own public search JSON instead — giving you structured Russian classifieds data without any API key.

Do I need an API key or a login? No. There is no Avito account, login, cookies or API key required — only an Apify account. The Actor reads only public listing data.

Why does it need a Russian residential proxy? Avito serves search results only to Russian visitors and blocks foreign IPs. The Actor defaults to Apify Proxy · RESIDENTIAL · country RU — keep that setting so requests are served.

It says my IP is rate-limited — is that a failure? No. Avito's firewall throttles individual IPs. The Actor treats that as a soft block, switches to a fresh Russian residential session and retries, so the run keeps going.

Does it return seller name or phone? No — those aren't in Avito's search results. This Actor captures the listing-level fields (title, price, location, category, images and URL).

How much data can I get? You can scrape thousands of listings per query — Avito paginates to roughly page 99. Control depth with maxItemsPerQuery and the global maxResults cap, and split broad searches into narrower keywords or categories to reach deeper inventory.

Is this an Avito API alternative?

Yes. Avito has no open public listings API, so this Actor works as an unofficial Avito API alternative — it reads public search data directly and returns clean, structured records with no developer key.

Can I scrape Avito without an API or login?

Yes. No Avito account, login, cookies or API key is needed — only an Apify account. The Actor pulls publicly available listings over direct HTTP via a Russian residential proxy.

How do I export Avito data to CSV or JSON?

Run the Actor, then export the resulting dataset as CSV, JSON, Excel or HTML from the Apify console, or pull it via the Apify API and webhooks. Each Avito listing becomes one row with price, location, category, images and URL.

How do I scrape car prices from Avito.ru?

Add car keywords like bmw x5 or lada granta to searchQueries, or set the matching categoryId, and the scraper returns each Avito listing with its numeric price, locationName and photos.

Can I scrape Avito real estate listings by city?

Yes. Search квартира, or set a categoryId plus a Moscow or Saint Petersburg locationId, to pull apartment and property listings with price-per-region for real-estate research.

What currency are Avito prices in?

All Avito prices are returned in Russian Rubles (RUB), as both a numeric price field and a formatted priceString like 42 000 ₽.
