## What's an Apify Actor?
Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.
- **AI agents and MCP clients** โ the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** โ [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** โ the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** โ the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** โ the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).
For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README
**Turn AutoScout24.de's active car dealers into a B2B lead list in minutes** - no coding, no manual copy-pasting. Get each dealer's company name, address, phone, official website, and email address, sourced from their own legally published business disclosure.
### What does AutoScout24 Dealer Leads Germany do?
AutoScout24 Dealer Leads Germany discovers car dealers actively listing inventory on [AutoScout24.de](https://www.autoscout24.de), Germany's largest online car marketplace, and enriches each one with its full contact profile: phone number, official homepage, and email address. The email and website come from each dealer's own **Impressum** (legal notice) - a business disclosure German law (ยง5 TMG) requires every commercial site operator to publish, which is why this data is both public and reliably present.
### Why use AutoScout24 Dealer Leads Germany?
- **B2B sales outreach** - build a call/email list of active car dealerships for parts suppliers, finance providers, marketing agencies, or SaaS tools selling into the automotive trade.
- **Market mapping** - see which dealers are active in a given category and where they're located.
- **Partnership sourcing** - find dealers to approach for wholesale, trade-in, or consignment partnerships.
- **Data enrichment** - pull structured dealer contact data into your own CRM instead of copying it by hand from dozens of dealer pages.
### How to use AutoScout24 Dealer Leads Germany
1. Go to the **Input** tab.
2. Optionally set **Make** to scope discovery to dealers currently listing that make (e.g. `bmw`), or leave empty to discover dealers across all makes.
3. Set **Max dealer leads** to control how many unique dealers to collect.
4. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish - the Actor first scans car listings to discover active dealers, then visits each dealer's own profile page to pull their full contact details.
5. Open the **Dataset** tab to preview, filter, and export your leads.
### Input
| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `make` | String | Optionally scope dealer discovery to a make, e.g. `bmw` (optional). |

| `maxPages` | Integer | Safety cap on how many listing pages to scan while discovering dealers (default: 30). |
Example input:
```json

#### Data table

| --- | --- |
| `dealerId` | AutoScout24's internal dealer ID |
| `companyName` | The dealership's registered business name |
| `profileUrl` | The dealer's own page on AutoScout24 |
| `street`, `zip`, `city`, `country` | Business address |
| `phone`, `phones` | Primary phone, and the full list of published phone numbers |
| `faxNumbers` | Published fax numbers, where the dealer has one |
| `website` | The dealer's own homepage, as published on AutoScout24 |
| `email` | Business email address, extracted from the dealer's own Impressum (legal notice) text |
| `rating`, `ratingCount` | AutoScout24's aggregate customer rating (out of 5) and number of ratings |
| `recommendPercentage` | Share of customers who said they'd recommend this dealer |
| `ratingBreakdown` | Per-category average star ratings (overall impression, reachability, reliability, listing accuracy, purchase process, advice) - German labels, as AutoScout24 itself uses |
| `contactPersons` | Named sales contacts with their own direct phone/email, where the dealer lists any |
| `makes` | Brands this dealer is an authorized dealer/service partner for |
| `services` | Additional services offered (inspection, financing, loaner cars, bodywork, etc.) |
| `openingHours` | Business hours per department (e.g. sales vs. service), by day of week |

### Pricing / Cost estimation
How much does it cost to run this Actor? Pricing depends on your Apify plan's compute unit rate and how many leads you request. Each lead costs roughly two fast HTTP requests (one shared listing-page scan across many dealers, one profile-page fetch per dealer).
### Tips for better runs
- Leave **Make** empty for the broadest dealer discovery; set it to focus on dealers who specialize in a particular brand.
- A single listing page usually surfaces leads from several distinct dealers, so **Max dealer leads** typically fills up well before **Max listing pages** is exhausted.
- Use the Apify **Schedule** feature to re-run this Actor periodically and catch newly active dealers.
### FAQ
**Is this legal?** This Actor only collects information dealers are legally required to publish (Impressum / legal notice, per German TMG ยง5) or have chosen to make public on their AutoScout24 profile. It targets registered businesses, not private individuals. You are still responsible for using the resulting contact data in accordance with applicable marketing/anti-spam laws (e.g. Germany's UWG) in your outreach.
**Why is a dealer's email or website missing?** Not every dealer includes a website or a clearly labeled email address in their Impressum text - the Actor returns `null` rather than guessing when it can't find one.
**Found a bug or have a feature request?** Please use the Issues tab on this Actor's page - feedback directly shapes future updates.
