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.

Paste a search URL (for example `https://www.markt.de/suche/hund/`) or a single listing URL and export structured ad data without coding. ### Why scrape markt.de? - **Market monitoring** — Track new listings for keywords, categories, or regions across Germany. - **Lead generation** — Collect job posts, services, and commercial offers with location and contact context. - **Price research** — Compare asking prices for products, vehicles, and rentals over time. - **Apify platform** — Schedule runs, export JSON/CSV/Excel, monitor failures, and integrate via API. ### What data can you extract from markt.de? | Field | Description | | --- | --- | | listingId | Unique 8-character listing identifier | | title | Ad headline | | url | Public listing URL | | description | Full ad description | | price | Numeric price when available | | priceText | Formatted price string (e.g. `5,35 €`) | | priceLabel | Price type (Festpreis, VB, Zu verschenken) | | location | City and postal code | | datePosted | Display date on the listing | | category | Primary category | | categoryPath | Full category breadcrumb | | advertType | Private or commercial offer | | imageUrls | Listing image URLs | | sellerName | Seller or company name when shown | | viewCount | Listing view count when available | | searchUrl | Source search URL for listings found via search | ### How to scrape markt.de 1. Open the Actor in Apify Console. 2. Add one or more **markt.de search or listing URLs** under **Start URLs**. 3. Set **Maximum items** (listings per start URL). 4. Run the Actor and download results from the dataset tab. ### Input Markt.de Scraper accepts **Start URLs**, **maxItems** (per start URL), and optional **proxy configuration**. See the **Input** tab in Apify Console for details. Supported start URLs: - Search pages: `https://www.markt.de/suche/{keyword}/` - Listing pages: `https://www.markt.de/{slug}/a/{listingId}/` ### Output example ```json { "listingId": "79084c0a", "title": "Systemadministrator (m/w/d)", "url": "https://www.markt.de/systemadministrator-m-w-d/a/79084c0a/?geoUrlId=garbsen", "description": "Systemadministrator (m/w/d), in Garbsen...", "price": null, "priceText": null, "priceLabel": null, "location": "30823 Garbsen", "postalCode": "30823", "city": "Garbsen", "datePosted": "Heute, 04:35", "category": "IT", "categoryPath": "Jobs › IT", "advertType": "Gewerbliches Angebot", "imageUrls": [ "https://imagecache.markt.de/..." ], "sellerName": "yourfirm", "searchUrl": "https://www.markt.de/suche/hund/" } ```` You can download the dataset in JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML. ### How much does scraping markt.de cost? This Actor uses an HTTP crawler (no browser) and **no proxy by default**, keeping compute usage low. A typical test run with 5 listings per URL usually finishes in under a minute on the Apify free tier. ### FAQ **Is scraping markt.de legal?**\ Our scrapers collect only **public** listing content shown on markt.de. You are responsible for complying with applicable laws (including GDPR) when processing personal data in ads. **Which URLs are supported?**\ Public search result pages under `/suche/` and individual listing pages under `/a/{listingId}/`. ### Image Credit Image credit: [markt.de](https://www.markt.de/) # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): markt.de search URLs (e.g. https://www.markt.de/suche/hund/) or individual listing URLs (e.g. https://www.markt.de/systemadministrator-m-w-d/a/79084c0a/). ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of listings to return per start URL. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings.
