## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Avito Scraper - Russia Classifieds & Prices

> This Actor is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Avito or any of its subsidiaries. All trademarks mentioned are the property of their respective owners.

Scrape classified listings from **avito.ru**, Russia's largest classifieds marketplace. Paste any avito.ru search
URL - real estate, cars, electronics, furniture, jobs and more - and get clean rows with **title**, **price**,
**currency**, **location**, **posted date** and **image**. avito is heavily anti-bot protected; this actor
**handles that automatically** so you just get the data. No API key needed on your side.

### What you get per listing

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `title` / `url` / `id` | Listing title, canonical avito.ru URL, and item id |
| `price` / `currency` | Asking price (number) and currency (RUB) |
| `location` | Seller's city/area, when shown on the card |
| `date` | Posted / bumped date, when shown on the card |
| `image` | Cover thumbnail URL |

### Input

```json
{ "startUrls": ["https://www.avito.ru/moskva/noutbuki"], "maxPagesPerUrl": 5 }
```

- **Search URLs** - browse or search on avito.ru with your filters, then paste the URL **from your browser's
  address bar**. That URL carries avito's filter code (e.g. `.../kvartiry/prodam-ASgBAgICAUSSA8YQ`) and returns
  listing cards; a bare category path like `.../kvartiry/prodam` is only a category index. One URL per line.
- **Import from a file** - paste a whole list, or link a public `.txt`/`.csv`, a Google Sheet/Drive link, or an
  Apify key-value-store record.
- **Output fields** - trim every record to exactly the columns you need for lean CSV/Sheets exports.

Leave everything empty and the run returns a small free sample so you can see the shape first.

### Reliability

avito.ru is protected by enterprise anti-bot, which blocks both plain HTTP clients and ordinary headless browsers.
This actor routes each request through a premium unblocking layer that solves the challenge and returns the real
page, then parses the server-rendered listing cards - so runs are stable. You are only ever billed for listings
actually saved.

On top of that, every page is verified against the search's own result count: if avito's anti-bot layer serves a
partially rendered page (fewer cards than the search says it should hold), the page is automatically refetched on
a fresh route - up to 3 fetches, keeping the best - and is never mistaken for the end of your search. A page that
somehow stays short after refetching is disclosed in the run's status message instead of being passed off as
complete.

### Notes

avito is a general marketplace, so a few card fields depend on the category and seller:

- **`location`** appears when the seller attached a geo label. Delivery-only listings and many product cards carry
  no address on the card (~86% filled on real-estate searches, lower on electronics). Full address lives only on
  the detail page.
- **`date`** is replaced by a promotion badge on boosted listings, so it is present on non-promoted cards.
- **`image`** is lazy-loaded; the cover URL is captured for cards that ship it in the page HTML.

### Disclaimer

This Actor is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Avito or any of its
subsidiaries. All trademarks mentioned are the property of their respective owners. It collects only publicly
available listing information and is intended for lawful research, market analysis and price-monitoring use. You
are responsible for how you use the data, including compliance with applicable law.

### Agent-ready: autonomous payments (x402 & Skyfire)

This actor is **agent-ready** — AI agents can discover it, run it, and **pay for it autonomously**, with no Apify account and no human in the loop. It uses [pay-per-event](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/publishing/monetize/pay-per-event) pricing and [limited permissions](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/development/permissions), so it qualifies for Apify's agentic-payment standards:

- **[x402](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/x402)** — an open, HTTP-native payment protocol. Agents pay per run in USDC on the Base network directly through the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp) — no account, no API key.
- **[Skyfire](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/skyfire)** — agent-to-service payments for fully autonomous AI-agent workflows.

Building an AI agent, MCP tool, or autonomous data pipeline? This scraper is ready to plug in and pay as it goes.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

avito.ru search or category URLs, one per line. Build a search on avito.ru (any category - real estate, cars, electronics, jobs), then paste the URL. <b>Leave empty and the run returns a small free sample.</b>

## `startUrlsFromFile` (type: `string`):

Bulk-load avito.ru URLs. Either <b>paste the whole list</b> (one per line), or give <b>a single link</b> to a public <code>.txt</code>/<code>.csv</code>, a Google Sheet/Drive link, or an Apify key-value-store record. A file that cannot be read says so and charges nothing.

## `maxPagesPerUrl` (type: `integer`):

How many result pages to follow for each start URL (about 50 listings per page).

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Overall cap across all URLs. You are only charged for listings actually saved.

## `outputFields` (type: `array`):

Pick the fields you want and every record is trimmed to exactly those - handy for lean CSV/Sheets exports.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.avito.ru/moskva/noutbuki"
  ],
  "maxPagesPerUrl": 10,
  "maxItems": 1000
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

Each listing - title, price, location, params - as a JSON item in the default dataset.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.avito.ru/moskva/noutbuki"
  ],
  "startUrlsFromFile": ""
}' |
apify call scrapesage/avito-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,scrapesage/avito-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
