easyauto123 Scraper

How it works

This actor extracts used vehicle data from easyauto123. It supports both actor modes:

• crawler mode uses CheerioCrawler to request the search/list URL first, then it generates and requests each vehicle detail URL.
• internal mode uses the internal Impit handlers to fetch the same search and detail flow without going through the crawler queue.

The site is a Next.js app that returns text/x-component RSC payloads. The actor parses those payloads, resolves listing cards from the search page, enriches each result with the detail page payload, and returns a normalized dataset with pricing, vehicle, dealer, location, features, and media fields.

Features

This actor offers the following features:

• Search And Detail Support: Accepts both search result URLs and direct vehicle detail URLs.
• Two Execution Modes: Supports both crawler and internal request flows.
• RSC Payload Parsing: Extracts data from Next.js text/x-component responses instead of relying on rendered HTML.
• Detail Enrichment: Search pages can automatically queue each matching vehicle detail request.
• Rich Vehicle Output: Returns normalized pricing, specs, registration, dealer, and media fields.
• Proxy Support: Built-in proxy support to improve reliability.
• Customizable Configuration: Adjust item limits, concurrency, retries, and request mode.

How to Use

1. Set Up: Ensure you have an Apify account and access to the actor.
2. Input Start URLs: Specify one or more easyauto123 URLs to scrape, e.g.:
   • Search results: https://easyauto123.com.au/buy/used-cars?limit=20

Data Quality Features

The easyauto123 scraper includes several data quality features:

1. RSC Search Parsing

   • Reads Next.js text/x-component payloads from search pages
   • Extracts vehicle cards directly from the vehicles array in the RSC response
   • Preserves requested pagination through page and limit

2. Detail Enrichment

   • Generates each detail page URL from the search payload
   • Fetches the richer detail payload for each listing when includeListingDetails is enabled
   • Falls back to listing-card data if detail enrichment fails

3. Normalized Vehicle Output

   • Maps raw easyauto123 fields into a stable output schema
   • Preserves pricing, registration, specs, location, and equipment details
   • Normalizes body type, transmission, fuel, and media fields into consistent keys

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. No results found

   • Verify that the start URLs are correct and accessible
   • Check if the easyauto123 website structure has changed
   • Try with a different proxy or IP address
   • Ensure URLs are properly formatted easyauto123.com.au links

2. Incomplete data

   • Some fields might be optional and not always present in every listing
   • Some normalized fields are intentionally blank when the source payload does not provide a value
   • Detail enrichment depends on whether includeListingDetails is enabled
   • Verify that the includeListingDetails parameter is set correctly for your use case

3. Blocking

   • If you encounter blocking, try:
     • Using residential proxies
     • Reducing concurrency
     • Rotating sessions or proxies more aggressively

4. Slow crawling

   • Compare crawler and internal mode on the same input
   • Use smaller maxItems values when testing
   • Reduce the number of simultaneous start URLs for more predictable throughput

5. Data inconsistencies

   • Vehicle specifications may vary between listings due to different site content sources
   • Some normalized fields are convenience fields derived from the raw detail payload
   • Image counts and feature lists depend on the vehicle detail page content
