## 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** — 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** — [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** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### What does BiggerPockets Scraper do?

[BiggerPockets](https://www.biggerpockets.com) is the biggest online community for real estate investors, with millions of forum posts about deals, financing, landlording, and market trends. This BiggerPockets scraper extracts that discussion data at scale:

- 📋 **Forum topics** — newest, trending-now, or unanswered threads from any forum, with body text, author, and engagement counts.
- 💬 **Full reply threads** — every comment on a topic, with author and like count, when `includeComments` is on.
- 👤 **User profiles** — bio, job title, posts made, likes given, and follower / following counts by username.
- 🏷️ **All 50+ forums** — Real Estate Deal Analysis, BRRRR, House Hacking, Wholesaling, Short-Term Rentals, Creative Financing, Tenant Screening, Market Trends & Data, and more, as a simple dropdown.
- 🔎 **Engagement filters** — keep only topics above a reply, vote, or view threshold, or matching a keyword in the title or body.
- 🧭 **Seven modes** — crawl a forum, scan many forums at once, or look up specific topics and users by ID, URL, or username.

Common uses: investor-question lead generation for agents, lenders, and wholesalers (`forumUnanswered`); market and sentiment research (`containsKeyword`); competitive monitoring of a niche; building a dataset for analysis or an LLM knowledge base.

```

Download the dataset as **JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or XML** from the Storage tab or the API.

### Use cases

- **Lead generation** — run `forumUnanswered` on Starting Out, Private Lending, or Tax forums to find investors asking questions your service answers.
- **Market research** — track how often "DSCR", "assumable", "rate buydown", or a metro name shows up across finance and deal forums over time.
- **Content and SEO** — mine real investor questions for blog posts, FAQs, and courses.
- **Competitive monitoring** — watch the Real Estate Technology and "Ask About A Real Estate Company" forums for mentions of your product or a competitor.
- **Community analytics** — measure engagement, top contributors, and topic velocity per forum.
- **LLM training data** — build a domain corpus of real estate Q\&A with full threads.

### How it works

1. **Discovery** — for forum modes, the scraper reads the forum listing (25 topics per page) up to `maxPagesPerForum`, in the order you chose (`newest`, `trending`, or `unanswered`).
2. **Pre-filter** — `minReplies`, `minVotes`, and `containsKeyword` are applied from the listing data before any topic page is fetched, so filtered runs stay cheap.
3. **Detail** — each surviving topic page is parsed for the full body, timestamps, and view count; `minViews` is applied here, and `containsKeyword` is re-checked against the full body.
4. **Comments** — when `includeComments` is on, every reply page is walked up to `maxCommentsPerTopic`.
5. **Users** — `byUsernames` reads each profile page directly.
6. Records stream to the dataset as they are produced and stop at `maxItems`.

### Pricing

This actor is **pay per result**. You are charged once per output record (a topic, a comment, or a user profile).

| Plan | Price per 1,000 results |
|------|-------------------------|
| Free | **$3.99** |
| Bronze | **$3.49** |
| Silver | **$2.99** |
| Gold | **$2.49** |

`maxItems` is the exact number of billed results — set it to control spend. Pulling 50 topics on the Free plan costs about **$0.20**. Apify's monthly free platform usage covers small runs.

#### Run it via API

Python:

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("parsebird/bigger-pockets-scraper").call(run_input={
    "mode": "forumLatest",
    "forumId": "88",
    "maxItems": 50,
})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
```

JavaScript:

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>' });
const run = await client.actor('parsebird/bigger-pockets-scraper').call({
    mode: 'multiForum',
    forumIds: ['48', '853', '311'],
    sortBy: 'trending',
    minVotes: 3,
    maxItems: 100,

console.log(items);
```

### FAQ

**Do I need a BiggerPockets account or API key?**
No. The BiggerPockets Scraper reads public forum pages only. BiggerPockets has no public forums API — this actor is the alternative.

**How current is the data?**
Live. Each run reads BiggerPockets at that moment. Use Apify's scheduler to keep a dataset fresh.

**Can I get every reply on a long thread?**
Yes. Set `includeComments: true` and raise `maxCommentsPerTopic`. The scraper walks every comment page.

**What does `maxItems` count?**
Every output record — topics, comments, and user profiles combined. It is also exactly what you are billed for.

**Why are some topics missing from my results?**
They were removed by the engagement filters (`minReplies`, `minVotes`, `minViews`, `containsKeyword`) or the topic was deleted by a moderator after appearing in the listing.

**A run took longer than usual or a few items came back with less detail — why?**
BiggerPockets' edge occasionally rate-limits automated traffic for short windows. The scraper retries automatically and falls back to residential IPs; if a topic's detail page still can't be loaded, that topic is returned from the forum listing instead (full title, author, counts, and a preview of the body). Re-running usually fills in anything that was thin.

**How do I find a forum ID?**
Open any forum on BiggerPockets and read the number in the `/forums/<id>` URL, or use the dropdown in this actor's input.

**Is scraping BiggerPockets legal?**
See below.

**Something's not working.**
Open an issue on the **Issues** tab with your input and the run link — we respond quickly.

### Is it legal to scrape BiggerPockets?

Scraping publicly available pages is legal in the US and most jurisdictions, and this actor only accesses content any logged-out visitor can see. It does not collect private messages, gated content, or bypass any login. You are responsible for how you use the data — respect BiggerPockets' Terms of Use, do not republish personal data of EU/UK residents without a lawful basis, and consult a lawyer if you are unsure. See Apify's guide on [the legality of web scraping](https://blog.apify.com/is-web-scraping-legal/).

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,parsebird/bigger-pockets-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).
