What it does

The actor searches Kijiji Canada for each keyword you pass, across every category and city you select, paginates through the matching classified ads, and writes one normalized record per listing to the run's dataset. Prices are parsed to a number with currency and type, location is returned with city, address and latitude/longitude, poster reputation is captured (posterRating, posterVerified, sellerType), and missing source values are returned as null.

Two optional AI add-ons (paid Apify plans only, off by default) enrich each record: aiSummary writes a plain-English summary of the ad, and aiAttributes extracts a structured item type, condition, brand, attributes and tags. Each is billed per record only when it produces usable output.

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns 3 mountain bike listings in Toronto with both AI add-ons on.

{
  "searchQueries": ["mountain bike"],
  "categories": ["all"],
  "cities": ["toronto"],
  "maxListings": 3,
  "withAiListingSummary": true,
  "withAiCategorize": true
}

Every keyword is searched in every selected category and city. Leave categories empty for all categories and cities empty to search all of Canada. The AI add-ons stay off unless you turn them on and are ignored on free plans.

Run via API and CLI

Start a run and wait for it to finish, then read the dataset. Replace <TOKEN> with your Apify API token.

Run synchronously and get dataset items in one call:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~kijiji-canada-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchQueries":["honda civic"],"categories":["cars-vehicles"],"cities":["toronto"],"maxListings":25}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~kijiji-canada-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchQueries":["apartment for rent"],"categories":["real-estate"],"cities":["vancouver"],"maxListings":100}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/kijiji-canada-scraper \
  --input '{"searchQueries":["iphone"],"cities":["montreal"],"maxListings":10}'

Fetch results

Every run writes to a dataset. Fetch items as JSON, CSV, or Excel by changing format:

# JSON
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=json"

# CSV
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=csv"

# Paginate large datasets
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&offset=1000&limit=1000"

<DATASET_ID> is returned as defaultDatasetId in the run object. Use offset and limit to page through large result sets. clean=true drops empty and internal fields.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per listing record returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• AI add-ons billed separately. withAiListingSummary and withAiCategorize are charged per record only when they produce usable output, and only on paid plans.
• No charge on failure. If a run errors, the actor writes a single item with a populated error field and does not charge for it. Empty runs cost nothing.
• Spend cap respected. Set maxTotalChargeUsd on the run; once reached, the actor stops emitting and charging further billable results.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 10 records per run, and AI add-ons are ignored. Upgrade for higher maxListings and AI enrichment.

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned 0 records. Why? The keyword and filter combination matched nothing. Broaden the keyword, set categories to all, or widen cities to canada. Zero-result runs are not charged.

Can I scrape a whole category with no keyword? Yes. Leave searchQueries empty and select the category and city you want.

Why are aiSummary and aiAttributes null? The AI add-ons are off by default and ignored on free plans. Turn on withAiListingSummary and withAiCategorize on a paid plan to populate them.

How do I search several cities at once? List them in cities. Each keyword is searched in every selected city and category, and results are combined up to maxListings.

Do I get seller contact details? The actor returns the poster ID, rating, verified flag and seller type that Kijiji exposes publicly. It does not bypass any login or reveal private contact info.

Is this an official Kijiji tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with Kijiji. It reads only data that is publicly available on Kijiji. Use it in accordance with Kijiji's terms of service.
