Frequently Asked Questions

What is Polovni Automobili?

Polovni Automobili (meaning "used cars" in Serbian) is Serbia's largest online vehicle marketplace. It connects private sellers and dealers with buyers across the Western Balkans, with listings spanning cars, trucks, motorcycles, tractors, heavy machinery, boats, buses, and bicycles.

What is the difference between Preloaded and Live mode?

Preloaded delivers results from a curated monthly snapshot — thousands of listings in seconds. Live scrapes PolovniAutomobili.com in real time for the freshest data but takes longer. Use Preloaded for bulk market analysis; Live for time-sensitive monitoring.

Can I scrape all 50,000+ car listings?

Yes, set categories to ["auto-oglasi"] and maxItems to 0 for unlimited. In Preloaded mode this completes in minutes. Start with a small maxItems to estimate cost first.

Is it legal to scrape Polovni Automobili?

Polovni Automobili Scraper extracts publicly available data from PolovniAutomobili.com. As with any data collection, review the site's Terms of Service before using scraped data commercially. For guidance, see Apify's blog on the legality of web scraping.
