## 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.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

# README

## Catawiki Scraper — Auction Lots, Live Bids, Expert Estimates & Seller Leads

Extract **complete data from [Catawiki](https://www.catawiki.com)**, the global online auction house for special objects — **watches, art, jewellery, coins & stamps, classic cars, wine & whisky, comics, trading cards, LEGO, fossils** and more. Get the full lot: **current bid, expert estimate range, reserve status, exact closing time, bid history, per-country shipping costs with delivery estimates, every structured specification, the complete image gallery, the Catawiki catalog expert, and the seller's country and reputation**.

No login, no cookies, no API key, no browser — fast JSON extraction straight from Catawiki's own page data, with monitor mode to capture **only new lots** on every run.

### Why this Catawiki scraper?

Generic "paste-a-URL" crawlers grab a thumbnail and a title and miss the data that actually drives a buying or pricing decision. This actor reads Catawiki's full lot data and ships the **richest dataset in the category**:

| Data | Generic crawlers | This actor |
|---|---|---|
| Lot title, subtitle, category path | partial | ✅ |
| **Current bid** + currency (+ stable EUR value) | ❌ | ✅ |
| **Number of bids** + recent **bid history** (amounts, times, bidder country) | ❌ | ✅ |
| **Expert estimate** range (low–high) | ❌ | ✅ when published |
| Reserve price set / reserve met | ❌ | ✅ |
| **Exact closing time** + auction status | ❌ | ✅ |
| **Shipping costs per country/region** + estimated delivery days + pickup & combined-shipping flags | ❌ | ✅ |
| **Pick only the output fields you need** (lean CSV exports) | ❌ | ✅ |
| Every structured **specification** (brand, model, year, material, grade…) | ❌ | ✅ |
| Full **image gallery** (all photos) + video count | partial | ✅ |
| One-line AI **summary** + full description | ❌ | ✅ |
| **Catalog expert** (name, bio, profile) | ❌ | ✅ |
| **Seller** country, verified status, reputation score & rating counts | ❌ | ✅ |
| Deduplicated **seller / dealer leads** with a 0–100 lead score | ❌ | ✅ opt-in |
| **Monitor mode** — only new lots since last run | ❌ | ✅ |

### Use cases

- **Price & market intelligence** — track realized bids vs. expert estimates across watches, art, coins, wine, classic cars and more. Spot under-bid lots, measure demand (`bidCount`, `favoriteCount`, `highInterest`) and benchmark categories over time.
- **Collectibles sourcing & flipping** — monitor a saved search or category and get alerted the moment a new lot appears, with the estimate range and reserve status already attached.
- **Lead generation** — turn high-volume, verified sellers into a prospect list: shop name, profile, country, reputation score and the categories they sell in, ranked by a 0–100 lead score. Ideal for dealers, marketplaces and authentication/insurance services.
- **Auction & deal aggregation** — power apps, newsletters and dashboards with structured lot data: title, specs, photos, current bid and closing time.
- **Research & valuation** — build comps libraries for appraisers, insurers and resale platforms using estimate ranges, specifications and bidding outcomes.

### How to use

1. [Sign up for Apify](https://console.apify.com/sign-up) — the free plan is enough to try this actor.
2. Open the **Catawiki Scraper**, enter **search queries** (e.g. `rolex`, `art deco ring`), pick **categories** (e.g. `watches`, `art`, `coins`), or paste **Start URLs** from Catawiki, and click **Start**.
3. Watch lots stream into the dataset table.
4. **Export** as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS — or pull results programmatically via the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2).

### Input

```json
{
    "searchQueries": ["rolex", "omega speedmaster"],
    "categories": ["watches"],
    "includeLotDetails": true,
    "includeShippingRates": true,
    "includeSellerLeads": true,
    "outputFields": [],
    "maxItems": 100,
    "monitorMode": false
}
```

- **searchQueries** — keywords to search across all auctions (`rolex`, `lego star wars`, `1982 bordeaux`, `pokemon psa 10`).
- **categories** — browse whole categories by name (`art`, `jewellery`, `watches`, `coins`, `wine`, `classic cars`, `comics`, `trading cards`, `toys`, `books`, `sports`, `cameras`, `fashion`, `interiors`) or by code (`333-watches`). For sub-categories (e.g. Breitling watches), use Start URLs.
- **startUrls** — paste any Catawiki URL: a search page, a category page, an auction page, or a lot page. The most reliable way to scrape the exact filters you set on the site. Also accepts the Console's **Link remote text file** option, so you can point it at a hosted list instead of adding URLs one by one.
- **lotUrls** — direct lot URLs to fetch full detail for.
- **urlsFromFile** — bulk-import URLs, one per line, without adding them one at a time. Either **paste the whole list** into the box, or give **a single link to the file** and it is downloaded for you. See [Importing a list of lot URLs](#importing-a-list-of-lot-urls).
- **includeLotDetails** *(default true)* — open each lot for current bid, estimate, bid history, specs, gallery, expert and seller reputation. Turn off for fast, cheap card-level listings only.
- **includeShippingRates** *(default true)* — attach each lot's shipping rate card: per-country/region prices in EUR, estimated delivery days, combined-shipping availability and pickup flags.
- **includeSellerLeads** *(default false)* — also output one deduplicated `sellerLead` record per seller.
- **outputFields** *(default: all fields)* — list the field names you want and every record is trimmed to exactly those (case-insensitive). Great for lean CSV/Sheets exports.
- **maxItems / maxSellerLeads** — caps for a run.
- **monitorMode / monitorOnlyNew / monitorKey** — output only lots not seen on previous runs (see below).
- **proxyConfiguration** — proxy settings (Apify datacenter by default).

### Output

By default you get one clean, dense table of **lots** (`type: "lot"`). With seller leads enabled, deduplicated **seller** records (`type: "sellerLead"`) are added to the same dataset.

A lot record (`type: "lot"`):

```json
{
    "type": "lot",
    "lotId": 104689705,
    "title": "Rolex - Oyster Perpetual Date Men's Watch - 15200(A) - Men - 2000-2010",
    "subtitle": "Automatic - Stainless steel",
    "summary": "Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date men's watch, ref. 15200(A), stainless steel, 34 mm case, white dial, automatic.",
    "url": "https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/104689705-...",
    "categoryName": "Rolex Watches",
    "categoryPath": ["Watches, Pens & Lighters", "Watches", "Rolex Watches"],
    "currency": "EUR",
    "currentBid": 2800,
    "currentBidEUR": 2800,
    "minNextBid": 3000,
    "bidCount": 10,
    "bidHistory": [{ "amount": 2800, "time": "2026-06-18T18:40:58.000Z", "bidderCountry": "de" }],
    "estimateLow": 4300,
    "estimateHigh": 4800,
    "estimateCurrency": "EUR",
    "reservePriceSet": true,
    "reservePriceMet": false,
    "biddingEndTime": "2026-06-22T19:48:36.000Z",
    "status": "open_now",
    "specs": { "Brand": "Rolex", "Model": "Oyster Perpetual Date", "Reference number": "15200(A)", "Band material": "Steel" },
    "shippingRates": [
        { "region": "Belgium", "regionCode": "be", "price": 100, "currency": "EUR" },
        { "region": "Rest of European Union", "regionCode": "europe", "price": 100, "currency": "EUR" },
        { "region": "Anywhere else", "regionCode": "world", "price": 100, "currency": "EUR" }
    ],
    "shippingCurrency": "EUR",
    "hasFreeShipping": false,
    "estimatedDeliveryDays": { "from": 7, "to": 14 },
    "combinedShippingAllowed": true,
    "pickupOnly": false,
    "favoriteCount": 16,
    "expertName": "Mauro Atienza",
    "expertUrl": "https://www.catawiki.com/en/e/...",
    "sellerId": 12345678,
    "sellerCountry": "Japan",
    "sellerScore": 100,
    "sellerLifetimeCount": 65,
    "sellerVerified": true,
    "images": ["https://assets.catawiki.com/.../1.jpg", "..."],
    "imageCount": 6,
    "scrapedAt": "2026-06-18T20:00:00.000Z"
}
```

A seller record (`type: "sellerLead"`) carries `sellerShopName`, `sellerUrl`, `country`, `verified`, `reputationScore`, `positiveCount`/`negativeCount`, `lifetimeRatings`, the `categories` they sell in, `minBid`/`maxBid`, `sampleLots`, and a 0–100 `leadScore`.

#### What to expect (field coverage)

Catawiki is curated, expert-vetted data, so most fields are reliably present. A few are populated only when relevant to that lot:

| Field | Coverage |
|---|---|
| `title`, `url`, `categoryPath`, `images`, `specs` | ~100% |
| `currentBid`, `bidCount`, `biddingEndTime`, `status` | ✅ on every open lot |
| `estimateLow` / `estimateHigh` | when the expert published an estimate (common in art, jewellery, coins) |
| `reservePriceMet` | once bidding is underway |
| `shippingRates`, `hasFreeShipping`, `estimatedDeliveryDays` | with `includeShippingRates` on (default); pickup-only lots carry `pickupOnly`/`pickupLocation` instead of rates, and classic cars may return a transport-quote URL (`shippingQuoteUrl`) |
| `sellerCountry`, `sellerScore`, `sellerVerified` | with `includeLotDetails` on |
| `bidHistory` | recent bids on lots that have received bids |
| `sellerShopName` | for professional/dealer sellers (private sellers are anonymous shops) |

A blank field means Catawiki didn't publish it for that lot — not that scraping failed. Nothing is dropped, so you always get the richest dataset available.

> **Note on contact details:** Catawiki keeps buyer/seller contact private, so seller leads do not include email or phone. The lead is the **dealer profile, country, reputation and selling categories** — exactly what you need to identify and prioritise high-volume sellers, then reach them through their public profile.

### Monitor only new lots

Turn on **Monitor mode** to track a search, category or seller over time and output **only the lots that are new** since your last run:

- Each monitor remembers the lots it has already seen in a named key-value store (`catawiki-monitor-<your key>`).
- Use a distinct **monitor key** per saved search so their memories stay separate (e.g. `rolex-watches`, `art-weekly`).
- It de-duplicates **before** spending a detail fetch, so monitoring stays cheap.

This works **alongside** Apify [Schedules](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules), not against it: schedule *how often* the actor runs in Apify, and monitor mode controls *what's new*. It never starts its own scheduler, so there's no conflict.

### Automate & schedule

Run this actor on autopilot and pull results into your own stack:

- **[Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2)** — start runs, fetch datasets, and manage schedules over REST.
- **[apify-client for JavaScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/)** and **[apify-client for Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/)** — official SDKs.
- **[Schedules](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules)** — run it hourly/daily to catch new lots and closing auctions; pair with monitor mode for only-new output.
- **[Webhooks](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/webhooks)** — trigger downstream actions (CRM import, Slack alert, bid sheet) the moment a run finishes.

```js
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'MY_APIFY_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('scrapesage/catawiki-scraper').call({
    searchQueries: ['rolex'],
    includeLotDetails: true,
    maxItems: 50,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(`Got ${items.length} lots`);
```

### Integrate with any app

Connect the dataset to 5,000+ apps — no code required:

- **[Make](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/make)** — multi-step automation scenarios.
- **[Zapier](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/zapier)** — push new lots or seller leads straight into your CRM or sheet.
- **[Slack](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/slack)** — get notified when a monitored category adds a new lot.
- **[Google Drive / Sheets](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/drive)** — auto-export every run to a spreadsheet.
- **[Airbyte](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/airbyte)** — pipe results into your data warehouse.
- **[GitHub](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/github)** — trigger runs from commits or releases.

### Use with AI assistants (MCP)

The output is clean, LLM-ready JSON. Call this actor from Claude, ChatGPT, or any agent framework through the **[Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp)** — ask your assistant to "find every open Rolex lot under estimate closing this week" and let it run the scraper for you.

### 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.

### Importing a list of lot URLs

Got a list of lots already — a saved watchlist, a spreadsheet column, a file your own tooling produced? You do not have to add them one at a time. There are three ways in, and all of them accept **one URL per line**:

**1. Paste the list.** Open your `.txt` file, select all, and paste it straight into **Import URLs from a file**:

```
https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/105707144-rolex-datejust-ii
https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/105748263-rolex-oyster-perpetual
https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/105862786-rolex-datejust-lady
```

**2. Link the file.** Put a single link in the same box and it is downloaded for you — a public `.txt`/`.csv`, a **Google Sheets** or Drive share link (converted to a CSV export automatically), or an Apify key-value-store record:

```json
{ "urlsFromFile": "https://example.com/my-watchlist.txt", "includeLotDetails": true }
```

**3. Upload it in the Console.** On the **Start URLs** field choose **Link remote text file** and give it your file's address — the file is expanded into individual lots at the start of the run.

What the parser tolerates, because real files are messy: blank lines, Windows line endings, a UTF-8 BOM, `#` comment lines, surrounding quotes, extra CSV columns, and several URLs on one line. **Duplicates are scraped and charged only once.** Lot URLs (`/en/l/...`) come back as full lot-detail records; search, category and auction URLs are crawled exactly as if you had pasted them into Start URLs. Anything that is not a `catawiki.com` link is skipped with a warning, and if the file cannot be read the run says so on the run card instead of quietly returning nothing.

### Tips

- **Bulk lot lists**: paste or link a file of lot URLs with `urlsFromFile` instead of adding them one at a time — see [Importing a list of lot URLs](#importing-a-list-of-lot-urls).
- **Pricing intelligence**: keep `includeLotDetails` on — `currentBid`, `estimateLow`/`estimateHigh`, `reservePriceMet` and `bidCount` are where the value is. Use `currentBidEUR` / `estimateLowEUR` for stable cross-currency comparisons.
- **Exhaust a category**: pass a category and raise `maxItems`; pagination walks the whole category automatically (24 lots/page).
- **Sub-categories & filters**: set the exact filters on Catawiki, then paste that URL into **Start URLs** to scrape precisely that view.
- **Recurring monitoring**: combine [Schedules](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules) with **monitor mode** and a per-search **monitor key** to capture only new lots.
- **Seller prospecting**: turn on `includeSellerLeads` and sort by `leadScore` to surface the highest-volume verified dealers first.
- **True landed cost**: combine `currentBid` + your region's entry in `shippingRates` to compare lots by total cost, not just hammer price — free-shipping lots are flagged with `hasFreeShipping`.
- **Lean exports**: set `outputFields` (e.g. `["title", "currentBid", "currency", "shippingRates", "biddingEndTime", "url"]`) to keep your CSV exactly as wide as you need.

### FAQ

**Does it need a Catawiki account or API key?** No. It reads Catawiki's public lot, search and category pages directly — no login, no key.

**Which categories are supported?** All of them — Art, Interiors & Decorations, Jewellery & Precious Stones, Watches/Pens/Lighters, Fashion, Coins & Stamps, Comics & Animation, Classic Cars/Motorcycles, Wine/Whisky/Spirits, Asian & Tribal Art, Trading Cards, Toys & Models, Archaeology & Natural History, Sports, Music/Movies/Cameras, and Books & Historical Memorabilia.

**Can I get the current bid and closing time?** Yes — `currentBid`, `minNextBid`, `bidCount`, `bidHistory`, `biddingEndTime` and `status` are captured for every open lot when lot details are on.

**Does it include shipping costs?** Yes — with `includeShippingRates` on (the default), every lot carries its full shipping rate card: price per destination country/region in stable EUR, estimated delivery days, combined-shipping availability and pickup options. Lots the seller only offers for pickup are flagged (`pickupOnly`) with the pickup location when published.

**Can I choose which fields I get?** Yes — list them in `outputFields` and each record is trimmed to exactly those fields (case-insensitive). Leave it empty for the full record.

**Can I import lot URLs from a text file, one per line?** Yes. Paste the list into **Import URLs from a file**, or put a single link to the file there (a public `.txt`/`.csv`, a Google Sheet, or a key-value-store record) and it is downloaded and expanded for you. The **Start URLs** field's *Link remote text file* option works too. Duplicates are only scraped once. Full details in [Importing a list of lot URLs](#importing-a-list-of-lot-urls).

**Do seller leads include email or phone?** No — Catawiki keeps contact details private. The lead is the seller's profile, country, verified status, reputation score and selling categories, with a 0–100 lead score.

**Can I export to Google Sheets, CSV, or Excel?** Yes — one click in the dataset view, or automatically on every run via the [Google Drive integration](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/drive).

**How do I monitor for new lots?** Turn on monitor mode, set a monitor key, and create an Apify [Schedule](https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules) (e.g. hourly). Each run outputs only lots that are new since the last one.

**Is scraping Catawiki legal?** This actor collects publicly available data only. You're responsible for using the data in compliance with applicable laws (e.g. GDPR/CCPA for personal data) and Catawiki's terms.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQueries` (type: `array`):

Keywords to search on Catawiki, e.g. <code>rolex</code>, <code>art deco ring</code>, <code>lego star wars</code>, <code>1960 bordeaux</code>, <code>pokemon psa 10</code>. Each query is scraped across all matching auctions. Leave empty to browse by category or use Start URLs.

## `categories` (type: `array`):

Browse whole categories by name or code. Top-level names: <code>art</code>, <code>jewellery</code>, <code>watches</code>, <code>fashion</code>, <code>coins</code>, <code>stamps</code>, <code>comics</code>, <code>classic cars</code>, <code>wine</code>, <code>whisky</code>, <code>trading cards</code>, <code>toys</code>, <code>sports</code>, <code>books</code>, <code>cameras</code>, <code>interiors</code>. You can also pass a category code like <code>333-watches</code>. For sub-categories (e.g. Breitling watches), use Start URLs.

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

Paste any Catawiki URL — a search page (<code>https://www.catawiki.com/en/s?q=omega</code>), a category page (<code>https://www.catawiki.com/en/c/333-watches</code>), an auction page (<code>.../en/a/123-...</code>) or a lot page (<code>.../en/l/...</code>). The most reliable way to scrape exactly the filters you set on the site. Used in addition to search queries and categories. <b>Bulk import:</b> use this field's <i>Link remote text file</i> option to load a file of URLs (one per line) — or paste the list into <b>Import URLs from a file</b> below.

## `lotUrls` (type: `array`):

Direct Catawiki lot URLs (<code>https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/104507119-...</code>) to scrape full detail for. Each is fetched as a fully enriched lot-detail record. Adding them one at a time? Use <b>Import URLs from a file</b> below instead.

## `urlsFromFile` (type: `string`):

Bulk-load lot URLs without adding them one at a time. Two ways to use it: <b>(1)</b> paste your whole list straight in, one URL per line — open your .txt file, select all, paste; or <b>(2)</b> give a single link to the file and it is downloaded for you — a public <code>.txt</code>/<code>.csv</code>, a Google Sheet or Drive share link (auto-converted to CSV export), or an Apify key-value-store record. Blank lines, <code>#</code> comments and extra CSV columns are ignored, and duplicates are only scraped once. Lot URLs (<code>/en/l/...</code>) become full lot-detail records; search, category and auction URLs are crawled like Start URLs.

## `includeLotDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Open each lot's page for the rich data: current bid, starting/min-next bid, bid count and bid history, expert estimate, reserve status, closing time, every structured specification, full image gallery, catalog expert and seller reputation. Turn off for a fast, cheap card-level listing only (no live bids/estimates/specs).

## `includeShippingRates` (type: `boolean`):

Add each lot's shipping rate card: per-country/region shipping prices (<code>shippingRates</code>, stable EUR), estimated delivery days, combined-shipping availability and pickup flags. One extra lightweight request per lot. Applies to lot-detail records (has no effect when lot details are off).

## `includeSellerLeads` (type: `boolean`):

Emit a second record type (<code>type: "sellerLead"</code>): one deduplicated record per seller with shop name, profile URL, country, verified status, reputation score with rating counts, the categories they sell in, bid range, sample lots and a 0-100 lead score. Great for finding high-volume verified dealers to partner with or prospect.

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

Pick the fields you want and every record is trimmed to exactly those — handy for lean CSV/Sheets exports. <b>Nothing to memorise:</b> open the dropdown and tick, or start typing (<code>bid</code>, <code>ship</code>, <code>seller</code>) to filter. Leave empty to get all 99 fields. The list covers both record types — entries marked <b>Lead ·</b> only appear on <code>sellerLead</code> records. If a selection matches nothing on a given record, identity fields (<code>type</code>, <code>lotId</code>, <code>url</code>) are kept so rows are never empty.

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

Maximum number of lots to scrape across all queries, categories and URLs. Pagination stops automatically when this is reached. 0 or empty uses the default.

## `maxSellerLeads` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of seller-lead records to output (only applies when seller leads are enabled). Leads are ranked by lead score, so the strongest dealers come first.

## `monitorMode` (type: `boolean`):

Remember the lots seen on previous runs (in a named key-value store) and, on each run, output only lots that are new since last time. Perfect for tracking a category, search or seller for fresh items. Works alongside Apify <b>Schedules</b> — schedule the run cadence there, and this flag controls de-duplication. It does not start its own scheduler.

## `monitorOnlyNew` (type: `boolean`):

When monitor mode is on, skip lots already seen on previous runs and only output (and charge for) new ones. Turn off to re-output everything each run while still recording what was seen.

## `monitorKey` (type: `string`):

A name for this monitor's memory, e.g. <code>rolex-watches</code> or <code>art-weekly</code>. Use a different key per saved search so their seen-lists stay separate. Each key maps to a key-value store named <code>catawiki-monitor-\<key></code>.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy settings. Catawiki serves clean data to Apify datacenter proxies, which are used by default. If you ever see blocks, switch to Residential.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searchQueries": [
    "rolex"
  ],
  "includeLotDetails": true,
  "includeShippingRates": true,
  "includeSellerLeads": false,
  "maxItems": 100,
  "maxSellerLeads": 200,
  "monitorMode": false,
  "monitorOnlyNew": true,
  "monitorKey": "default",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

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

All scraped auction-lot records and optional seller-lead records as JSON items in the default dataset.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "searchQueries": [
        "rolex"
    ],
    "urlsFromFile": ""
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("scrapesage/catawiki-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {
    "searchQueries": ["rolex"],
    "urlsFromFile": "",
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("scrapesage/catawiki-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "searchQueries": [
    "rolex"
  ],
  "urlsFromFile": ""
}' |
apify call scrapesage/catawiki-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

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