Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ### ๐Ÿ›’ Marktplaats Listings Scraper **Marktplaats Listings Scraper** extracts structured listing data from **[Marktplaats.nl](https://www.marktplaats.nl/)** โ€” the Netherlands' #1 classifieds marketplace โ€” with no API key and no login.

Try it with the default input to pull live results in seconds. ### โœจ Features - ๐Ÿท๏ธ **Rich listing data** โ€” title, numeric price (EUR), price type (fixed/bid/free), description, seller, verification status, city, GPS coordinates, date, category, attributes, and images for every result. - ๐Ÿ” **URL-driven** โ€” provide any Marktplaats search or category URL; the scraper resolves it automatically and paginates for you. - ๐Ÿงพ **Optional deep details** โ€” enable **Scrape listing details** to also collect the full image gallery, view and favorite counts, full category path, seller profile and tenure, shipping options, and bidding info from each listing page. - ๐Ÿ“ฆ **Bulk-ready** โ€” collect up to ~5,000 listings per search or category and combine multiple URLs in one run. - โšก **Fast & reliable** โ€” powered by Marktplaats' own structured data feed (no login, no fragile HTML parsing), so runs are quick and stable, and you only pay for the data you actually get. ### ๐Ÿ’ก Why use Marktplaats Listings Scraper? - **Market & price intelligence** โ€” track prices and inventory across cities and categories. - **Competitor & sourcing research** โ€” monitor what sellers list, at what price, and where. - **Resale & arbitrage** โ€” spot underpriced items and price trends in real time. - **Lead generation & sourcing** โ€” build datasets of sellers and offers by category and region. ### ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ How to use Marktplaats Listings Scraper 1. **Add start URLs** โ€” paste one or more Marktplaats search or category URLs (e.g. `https://www.marktplaats.nl/q/iphone/` or `https://www.marktplaats.nl/l/fietsen-en-brommers/`). 2. **Set a limit** โ€” choose how many listings to scrape with **Max items**. 3. **(Optional) Enable details** โ€” turn on **Scrape listing details** for the full gallery, stats, seller profile, and shipping info. 4. **Run the Actor** โ€” start it and watch results stream into the dataset. 5. **Export** โ€” download your data as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML, or pull it via the Apify API. ### ๐Ÿ“ฅ Input Configure the run from the **Input** tab or via the API. Fields: | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `startUrls` | array | Marktplaats search or category URLs to scrape. | | `maxItems` | integer | Maximum number of listings to scrape (0 = no limit). Default `50`. | | `scrapeDetails` | boolean | Visit each listing page for full details. Default `false`. | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | Proxy settings. The default Apify proxy works well for this target. | Example input: ```json { "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://www.marktplaats.nl/q/iphone/" }], "maxItems": 50, "scrapeDetails": false } ```` ### ๐Ÿ“ค Output Each listing is stored as one dataset item. You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel. Example output (listing mode): ```json { "id": "m2411141830", "url": "https://www.marktplaats.nl/v/telecommunicatie/mobiele-telefoons-apple-iphone/m2411141830-iphone-17-pro-max-2tb-oranje", "title": "iPhone 17 Pro Max 2TB Oranje", "description": "Simlockvrij, 2TB opslag, nieuw en ongebruikt, met origineel aankoopbewijs...", "price": 1150, "priceType": "MIN_BID", "currency": "EUR", "sellerId": 59732401, "sellerName": "Antony", "sellerIsVerified": false, "city": "Utrecht", "country": "Nederland", "latitude": 52.0915, "longitude": 5.1098, "date": "Vandaag", "categoryId": 1953, "attributes": { "condition": "Nieuw", "delivery": "Ophalen" }, "imageUrl": "https://images.marktplaats.com/api/v1/...", "imageUrls": ["https://images.marktplaats.com/api/v1/..."] } ``` With **Scrape listing details** enabled, each item additionally includes: ```json { "categoryName": "Apple iPhone", "categoryFullName": "Mobiele telefoons | Apple iPhone", "viewCount": 193, "favoritedCount": 12, "listedSince": "2026-06-16T03:23:42Z", "sellerType": "CONSUMER", "sellerActiveSince": "3 weken", "sellerPageUrl": "https://www.marktplaats.nl/u/antony/59732401/", "biddingEnabled": true, "minimumBid": 690, "shippingOptions": ["DHL", "PostNL"], "images": ["https://images.marktplaats.com/api/v1/...", "..."] } ``` #### Data fields | Field | Description | |---|---| | `id` | Marktplaats listing ID | | `url` | Canonical listing URL | | `title` | Listing title | | `description` | Listing description | | `price` | Numeric price in EUR (null for free/on-request ads) | | `priceType` | Price type (e.g. `FIXED`, `MIN_BID`, `FAST_BID`) | | `currency` | Currency code (`EUR`) | | `sellerId` / `sellerName` | Seller ID and display name | | `sellerIsVerified` | Whether the seller is verified | | `city` / `country` | Listing location | | `latitude` / `longitude` | GPS coordinates | | `date` | Listing date as shown on the site | | `categoryId` | Marktplaats category ID | | `attributes` | Key listing attributes (condition, delivery, etc.) | | `imageUrl` / `imageUrls` | Main photo and all card photos | | `categoryName`\* / `categoryFullName`\* | Category name and full path | | `viewCount`\* / `favoritedCount`\* | View and favorite counts | | `listedSince`\* | ISO timestamp the ad went live | | `sellerType`\* / `sellerActiveSince`\* | Seller type (private/dealer) and tenure | | `sellerPageUrl`\* | Seller profile URL | | `biddingEnabled`\* / `minimumBid`\* | Bidding availability and minimum bid | | `shippingOptions`\* | Available shipping carriers | | `images`\* | Full-resolution image gallery | \* Included only when **Scrape listing details** is enabled. ### ๐Ÿ’ฐ How much does it cost to scrape Marktplaats? This Actor uses the **pay-per-result** (pay-per-event) pricing model โ€” you pay only for the data you receive: | Event | Price | When it's charged | |---|---|---| | Listing scraped | **$1 / 1,000 listings** | For each listing in the default (listing-only) mode | | Listing detail scraped | **$3 / 1,000 listings** | For each fully enriched listing when **Scrape listing details** is on | There is **no fixed per-run fee**. Scraping 1,000 listings costs about **$1**, or **$3** with full details. New Apify accounts include free monthly usage credits, so you can start testing at no cost. ### โš™๏ธ Tips & advanced options - **Narrow with the URL.** Marktplaats returns up to ~5,000 results per search. Use a sub-category and on-page filters in your start URL to slice large categories into focused runs. - **Start small.** Keep `scrapeDetails` off for cheap, fast price/inventory snapshots; enable it only when you need the full gallery, stats, seller profile, or shipping info. - **Combine URLs.** Add several search or category URLs in one run to build a broad dataset in a single pass. - **Schedule it.** Use Apify Schedules to refresh your dataset daily or hourly for ongoing price monitoring. ### โ“ FAQ **Is scraping Marktplaats legal?** This Actor collects only publicly available information. You are responsible for how you use the data and for complying with Marktplaats' Terms of Service, applicable laws, and data-protection regulations (e.g. GDPR). It does not collect private contact details such as phone numbers. **Do I need proxies?** The default Apify proxy works well for this target and is enabled out of the box. You can adjust proxy settings in the input. **Why are some fields empty?** Listings vary by category, so not every field (e.g. coordinates, attributes, or shipping) is present on every ad. **Can I get more than 5,000 results?** Marktplaats limits a single search or category to ~5,000 listings. Split your target into multiple, more specific start URLs to go beyond that. ### ๐Ÿ›Ÿ Support Found a bug or need an extra field or category supported? Open an issue from the Actor's **Issues** tab โ€” feedback and feature requests are welcome. Custom scraping solutions are also available on request. # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Marktplaats search or category URLs to scrape, e.g. https://www.marktplaats.nl/q/iphone/ or https://www.marktplaats.nl/l/fietsen-en-brommers/. Paste any search or category page from your browser; the scraper paginates through each one automatically. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of listings to scrape across all start URLs. Set to 0 for no limit (note: Marktplaats returns up to ~5,000 listings per search or category). ## `scrapeDetails` (type: `boolean`): When enabled, each listing's detail page is visited to extract richer data: the full image gallery, view and favorite counts, full category path, seller profile, shipping options, and bidding info. Slower and more expensive than the listing-only mode. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings used for requests. The default Apify proxy works well for this target. ## Actor input object example ```json { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.marktplaats.nl/q/iphone/" } ], "maxItems": 50, "scrapeDetails": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
