## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. 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

## SUUMO Scraper — Japan Real Estate & Rentals

Scrape Japan real estate listings from [SUUMO](https://suumo.jp/) — the country's largest property portal by Recruit. Rentals, new mansions, detached houses, and land. Rent, deposit, key money, sale price, layout, area, year built, walk-to-station, photos, and agency contacts.

### Why use this scraper

- **Mobile API, not HTML scraping** — structured JSON with far richer data than the website
- **No anti-bot, no proxy needed** — runs fast from any IP
- **All categories** — rent, new mansions, detached houses, land
- **Full details** — photo gallery, deposit, key money, management fee, agency phone, business hours, building type, floor, orientation

### Supported inputs

- **Start URL** — paste a SUUMO search URL (e.g. `https://suumo.jp/chintai/tokyo/sc_shinjuku/`) or a direct listing URL (`https://suumo.jp/chintai/bc_100518405215/`)
- **Filters** — listing type, prefecture code, city/ward codes, station codes, rent/price/area bands, walk time, photos, new only, pet-friendly

### Input configuration

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `startUrl` | string | SUUMO search or listing URL |
| `listingType` | select | `rent` / `newMansion` / `newDetached` / `land` |
| `prefecture` | string | JIS prefecture code (13 = Tokyo, 27 = Osaka) |
| `cities` | string\[] | JIS 5-digit city/ward codes (13104 = Shinjuku) |
| `stations` | string\[] | SUUMO station codes |
| `rentMin` / `rentMax` | integer | Rent band in yen (rentals) |
| `priceMin` / `priceMax` | integer | Price band in yen (sales) |
| `areaMin` / `areaMax` | integer | Area band in m² |
| `walkTime` | integer | Max walk to station in minutes |
| `fetchFullDetails` | boolean | Fetch detail page for each listing (default: true) |
| `maxItems` | integer | Max listings to save (default: 100, free plan: 5) |

### Output fields

`bukkenCd`, `category`, `listingType`, `title`, `ward`, `neighbourhood`, `price`, `monthlyRent`, `rentYen`, `priceYen`, `deposit`, `keyMoney`, `managementFee`, `layout`, `area`, `areaM2`, `yearBuilt`, `ageYears`, `orientation`, `floor`, `buildingFloors`, `buildingType`, `moveIn`, `station1`, `station2`, `station3`, `walkMinutes`, `latitude`, `longitude`, `agencyName`, `agencyAddress`, `agencyPhone`, `businessHours`, `photo`, `photos`, `description`, `catchCopy`, `url`, `mobileUrl`, `updatedAt`, `source`

### Use cases

- **Market research** — track rent and sale prices across Japanese cities
- **Lead generation** — extract agency names, addresses, and phone numbers
- **Investment analysis** — compare property prices, yields, and locations
- **Relocation** — find rentals near specific stations with walk-time filters
- **Data enrichment** — feed property data into CRM or analytics pipelines

### How it works

1. The actor calls SUUMO's mobile API (`api001.suumo.jp`) with credentials extracted from the official Android app
2. Search results return listing cards with price, location, stations, and agency
3. When `fetchFullDetails` is on, each listing is enriched via the detail API (`chintai-api.suumo.jp`) with full photo gallery, fees, building specs, and agency phone
4. Results are pushed to the dataset as structured JSON

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrl` (type: `string`):

A SUUMO search URL (e.g. https://suumo.jp/chintai/tokyo/sc_shinjuku/) or a direct listing URL. Optional — overrides the filters below when set.

## `listingType` (type: `string`):

Property category to search. Ignored when startUrl is a category URL.

## `prefecture` (type: `string`):

JIS prefecture code (TF param). 13 = Tokyo, 27 = Osaka, 14 = Kanagawa. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:JP. Leave empty to search all of Japan.

## `cities` (type: `array`):

JIS 5-digit city/ward codes (SC param, repeatable). E.g. 13104 = Shinjuku, 13113 = Shibuya. Tokyo ward romaji slugs in startUrl are auto-resolved.

## `stations` (type: `array`):

SUUMO station codes (E param, repeatable). Combine with listingType for station-based searches.

## `rentMin` (type: `integer`):

Minimum monthly rent in yen. Rentals only.

## `rentMax` (type: `integer`):

Maximum monthly rent in yen. Rentals only.

## `priceMin` (type: `integer`):

Minimum sale price in yen. Sales only.

## `priceMax` (type: `integer`):

Maximum sale price in yen. Sales only.

## `areaMin` (type: `integer`):

Minimum floor area in square metres.

## `areaMax` (type: `integer`):

Maximum floor area in square metres.

## `walkTime` (type: `integer`):

Maximum walking time to the nearest station in minutes.

## `onlyWithPhotos` (type: `boolean`):

Filter out listings without photos.

## `onlyNew` (type: `boolean`):

## `petsAllowed` (type: `boolean`):

Rentals that allow pets.

## `fetchFullDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch the detail page for each listing (photo gallery, deposit, key money, management fee, full transport, agency phone). Off: search-card fields only.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

How many listings to save. Default 100. Free plan runs are capped at 5.

## `proxy` (type: `object`):

Optional. SUUMO's mobile API has no anti-bot, so a proxy is usually unnecessary. Use Apify Proxy or a custom proxy URL if you need geo-routing.

{
  "listingType": "rent",

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call memo23/suumo-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,memo23/suumo-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
