## Pricing

from $1.01 / 1,000 listing scrapeds

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Whatnot Listing Search Scraper

**Whatnot Listing Search Scraper** searches [Whatnot](https://www.whatnot.com)'s marketplace by keyword and returns one dataset row per listing, with **16 verified filters** (graded, PSA/CGC/Beckett, set, rarity, grade, condition, language, price range, seller rating and country, buying format, ...) and four sort orders. It calls the same GraphQL API the Whatnot mobile app uses for a signed-out user, so no account, app or device is needed.

Spun off from the [Whatnot All-in-One API](https://github.com/RomySaputraSihananda/whatnot-all-in-one-api) for teams that want a run-and-export dataset rather than a live REST API.

### Why use this Actor?

- **Collectibles market research** — see what is listed for a card, set or grade, at what price and format.
- **Sourcing and arbitrage** — pull every buy-it-now listing under a price for a set or grading service.
- **Price monitoring** — schedule the same query and compare runs.

### Input

| Field                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    | Required | Description                                                                                                          |

Each is searched separately; rows carry the `query` they came from.                                    |
| `sort`                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   | no       | `price_asc`, `price_desc`, `newest`, `oldest`. Empty = best match.                                                   |
| `maxItemsPerQuery`                                                                                                                                                                                                                       | no       | Default 100, max 1,000 (Whatnot's search depth).                                                                     |
| `includeDetails`                                                                                                                                                                                                                         | no       | Adds description, category, attributes, creation time, views and product per listing (extra `listing-detail` event). |
| `category`, `buyingFormat`, `minSellerRating`, `premierShop`, `sellerCountry`, `minPrice`, `maxPrice`, `graded`, `autographed`, `condition`, `language`, `productType`, `set`, `rarity`, `grade`, `gradingService`, `cardNumber`, `year` | no       | The 16 filters. Values inside one filter are OR, different filters are AND.                                          |

Every filter was verified live against Whatnot's real search (server-side result totals and returned items change as expected). Whatnot silently ignores unknown filter names, so use exactly the fields above. `minPrice`/`maxPrice` are in major units (dollars) and compared on a currency-normalised price.

### Output

One dataset row per listing, de-duplicated by `id` within each query:

```json
{
    "id": "TGlzdGluZ05vZGU6MjMxOTM3NzE1Ng==",
    "numericId": 2319377156,
    "title": "Slab: Pokemon: Charizard ex: SAR: Shiny Treasure ex: PSA 10",
    "price": { "amountMinor": 44000, "currency": "USD" },
    "transactionType": "BUY_IT_NOW",
    "listingStatus": "active",
    "user": { "username": "example_seller" },
    "query": "psa 10 charizard",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-09-21T02:00:00.000Z"
}
```

- **Money** is `{ amountMinor, currency }` in minor units (44000 USD = $440.00), in the seller's own currency.
- Search stops at the end of the strict matches: Whatnot's broader "results matching fewer words" backfill is not returned.
- A query reaches at most about **1,000 listings** (Whatnot's server-side depth).

### What is not available

Sold prices and bid history are redacted by Whatnot for everyone, and the search index only contains active listings.

### Pricing / Cost estimation

Billed **pay-per-event**: one `listing` event per listing row pushed (plus one `listing-detail` event per listing when `includeDetails` is on) and a flat `apify-actor-start` event per run. Volume tiers apply automatically.

### FAQ, disclaimers, and support

This is an **unofficial** Actor, not affiliated with or endorsed by Whatnot Inc. It reads only data that Whatnot shows to signed-out users in its own app. Use responsibly and in line with Whatnot's Terms of Service and applicable law.

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

One or more search texts (e.g. `psa 10 charizard`). Each query is searched separately and every row carries the `query` it came from.

## `sort` (type: `string`):

Leave empty for best match.

## `maxItemsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

Whatnot never returns more than about 1,000 results per query, so 1,000 is the ceiling.

## `includeDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch each listing's detail page to add description, category, attributes (condition, set, grade, ...), creation time, views and product. Billed as an extra `listing-detail` event per listing.

## `category` (type: `array`):

Category key(s), e.g. `pokemon_cards`. Values inside one filter are OR.

## `buyingFormat` (type: `string`):

Fixed-price listings or live auctions only.

## `minSellerRating` (type: `string`):

Minimum seller rating.

## `premierShop` (type: `boolean`):

Only Premier Shop sellers.

## `sellerCountry` (type: `array`):

Country code(s), e.g. `US`, `GB`, `FR`, `DE`, `CA`, `AU`.

## `minPrice` (type: `number`):

In major units (e.g. dollars); compared on a currency-normalised price.

## `maxPrice` (type: `number`):

In major units (e.g. dollars).

## `graded` (type: `boolean`):

Only graded items (trading cards).

## `autographed` (type: `boolean`):

Only autographed items.

## `condition` (type: `array`):

e.g. `Near Mint`.

## `language` (type: `array`):

e.g. `English`, `Japanese`.

## `productType` (type: `array`):

e.g. `Card`, `Booster Box`.

## `set` (type: `array`):

e.g. `Base Set`.

## `rarity` (type: `array`):

e.g. `Rare`.

## `grade` (type: `array`):

e.g. `10`, `9.5`.

## `gradingService` (type: `array`):

e.g. `PSA`, `CGC`, `BECKETT`, `TAG`, `SGC`.

## `cardNumber` (type: `array`):

Card number(s).

## `year` (type: `array`):

Year(s) for sports cards, e.g. 2023 or 1997. Pokémon cards have no Year attribute, so this filter returns no results for them.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
