What does Cian.ru Property Scraper do?

Give it a city and filters, or a Cian search URL. The Cian.ru Property Scraper queries Cian's own search backend and returns one structured row per listing:

• 🏷️ Price — price (RUB number), priceText ("14 900 000 ₽"), pricePerMeter
• 📐 Size & rooms — rooms, totalArea, livingArea, kitchenArea
• 🏢 Building — floor, totalFloors, buildingYear, buildingMaterial (panel, brick, monolith, …)
• 📍 Location — full address, region, city, district, metro, metroDistance, latitude, longitude
• 🖼️ Media & text — coverImage, images[], imageCount, full description
• 👤 Contact — agentName, agencyName, sellerType (agency / owner / developer), agentPhone, publishedAt

With scrapeDetails off you get a lean core row (id, URL, deal type, property type, title, price, price text, rooms, total area, address) for fast, lightweight exports. Any field Cian does not publish for a given listing comes back null — never a fabricated zero.

Why scrape Cian.ru?

• Market analysis — price, ₽/m² and room-mix trends for any Russian city or district
• Comps and valuation — pull recent listings around a subject property with coordinates
• Lead generation — active listings with agent, agency and phone
• Monitoring — schedule a search and capture new inventory sorted by newest
• Data pipelines — clean JSON of listings, photos and geodata for your database or map

Run it on a schedule, pull results through the Apify API, connect it to Make, Zapier, Google Sheets or Slack, and export to JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML.

How it works

1. Each location name is resolved to a Cian region/city ID; the filters become a Cian search query.
2. The actor pages through Cian's search backend (28 listings per page) and de-duplicates by listing ID.
3. When a single query has more results than Cian's page window allows, the search walks the price axis to keep collecting.
4. startUrls skip the filters: search URLs are read for their embedded query, listing URLs are fetched individually.
5. maxResults caps the run — you are charged only for the rows returned.

FAQ

Do I need a proxy? Cian blocks datacenter IPs. The default is Apify Proxy, RESIDENTIAL group, country RU, which works out of the box.

How do I target a district, metro station, or street? Open that search on Cian, copy the URL, and pass it in startUrls. Filters in a URL are always respected exactly.

How many listings can I get per search? A single query returns up to roughly 1,500 listings through Cian's paging. The actor walks the price range to go beyond that; splitting by locations or price also helps for very large areas.

Does scrapeDetails cost extra? No. It only changes how much of each row is written — full detail row vs lean core row. Both cost one event per listing.

Can I scrape rentals and new buildings? Yes. Set dealType to rent, or propertyType to newbuilding, house, land, room or commercial.

Can I schedule it? Yes. Use Apify Schedules to re-run a newest-sorted search and track new listings.
