⚠️ Important: login wall and anti-bot protection

Status (verified 18 Oct 2026): sahibinden.com no longer serves listing pages to anonymous sessions. Even after the Cloudflare challenge is passed from a Turkish residential IP, category pages are redirected to the login page (/giris, "Size daha iyi bir deneyim sağlayabilmemiz için sahibinden.com'a giriş yapmanız gerekmektedir"). Only a logged-in session gets listings. This Actor does not log in for you and never creates accounts: you must supply the cookies of your own logged-in browser session.

1. Session cookies are required. Log into sahibinden.com in your browser, export all cookies of sahibinden.com as JSON (EditThisCookie / Cookie-Editor → Export as JSON; a plain name=value; name2=value2 header also works) and paste them into sessionCookies. Include HttpOnly cookies and cf_clearance if present. The Actor validates them before starting the browser: unparseable, non-sahibinden or fully expired cookies end the run immediately as Failed with a clear message (no proxy cost). If sahibinden redirects to /giris anyway, the run stops at once with "Session cookies rejected … expired, logged out or bound to another IP/browser": log in again and re-export.

2. Cookies can be tied to your IP/browser. cf_clearance (Cloudflare) is bound to the IP and user agent that solved the challenge, and sahibinden may close sessions that suddenly appear from another IP. The Actor tries to solve the challenge itself with a Turkish exit IP, but this is not guaranteed. For stable runs use a Turkish proxy with a sticky IP (e.g. your own provider, pasted under Proxy configuration → Custom proxies) instead of rotating residential IPs, and keep one session per cookie export.

3. Turkish residential proxies are mandatory — datacenter IPs are blocked by Cloudflare. Default: Apify RESIDENTIAL with country TR. Success of the challenge on Apify RESIDENTIAL is intermittent (some runs time out on the "Just a moment…" page).

4. Cookies are a required, encrypted input. sessionCookies is a secret field: Apify stores it encrypted and never shows it in run inputs or logs. Invalid or expired cookies stop the run immediately with Failed (no browser, no proxy). allowWithoutCookies=true skips that validation and is only for experiments: expect the login redirect and 0 listings.

5. Never saved as empty success. 0 listings always ends as Failed with the reason in the run status (login redirect, challenge not resolved, or no listing rows found). Debug pages are saved in the Key-Value Store (debug_login.html, debug_challenge.html, debug_noresults.html).

6. Memory: the browser peaks at about 1 GB. If runs time out or are killed on 1024 MB, start the run with 2048 MB.

7. Keep request delays high — the default 3 s between pages is conservative. Lower values increase the risk of HTTP 429 and of the account being flagged. Use a dedicated account, not your main one.

8. Selectors may change — if a logged-in run reports No listing rows, check debug_noresults.html.

Start URLs: use real category URLs such as https://www.sahibinden.com/vasita/otomobil (or a brand/filter URL copied from your browser). The default https://www.sahibinden.com/en/cars could not be verified with a logged-in session.

💰 Pricing

Sahibinden.com Car Scraper uses Apify's Pay Per Event pricing. You pay only for the results you get:

• Price: $0.003 per listing (about $3.00 per 1,000) plus a $0.005 Actor start event (one per GB of memory, default 1 GB)
• Worked example: 100 listings = 100 x $0.003 + $0.005 = $0.305
• No monthly fees: Pay only when you run the scraper. Proxy and compute are included in the event price.

❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape sahibinden.com? The Actor extracts listing-level data (prices, specifications, locations) and no personal data (emails, phone numbers, addresses). Since 2026 sahibinden.com only shows listings to logged-in users, so you run it with the cookies of your own account. Review Sahibinden's Terms of Service (account use, automated access) for your specific use case before doing so.

Why am I getting 0 results? Runs never end as an empty Succeeded: they fail with the reason in the run status. The most common causes are missing/expired session cookies (login redirect to /giris) or the Cloudflare challenge not being solved from the proxy IP. Check the status message and the debug_*.html files in the run's Key-Value Store.

Can I scrape other categories (real estate, electronics)? This actor is optimized for car listings (/vasita/otomobil). Other categories may work with custom Start URLs but are not officially supported.

How often should I run the scraper? For price monitoring, daily runs are typical. For inventory tracking, weekly runs are usually sufficient. Use Apify's scheduling feature to automate runs.

Can I extract detail page data (description, all photos, specs)? The current version extracts listing-level data from search results pages. Detail page scraping is planned for a future release.
