Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use 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 ## MachineryZone Scraper โ€” European Heavy Equipment Collect heavy equipment listings from MachineryZone.eu, the leading pan-European classifieds platform for excavators, cranes, wheel loaders, bulldozers, and more. **Publisher:** Rastriq ยท [apify.com/rastriq](https://apify.com/rastriq) ### What you can do with it - Compare prices for the same equipment type across multiple European countries - Track used equipment inventory levels and spot supply or demand shifts - Build a pricing benchmark for equipment appraisal or resale valuation in Europe - Identify which countries have the most active sellers for a given category - Monitor dealer activity and new listings across the European market ### Filters | Filter | What it does | |---|---| | Category | Choose the equipment type to collect (e.g. track-excavator, wheel-loader) | | Max Pages | Limit how many pages of results to collect | | Max Items | Set a cap on the total number of listings to collect | ### What you get | Field | What it contains | |---|---| | ad_id | Unique listing identifier | | title | Full listing headline | | category | Equipment category | | price_clean | Asking price as a number | | currency | Currency of the price | | year | Year of manufacture | | hours_int | Operating hours recorded on the machine | | location | Seller location | | country_iso | Country code of the seller | | seller | Seller name | | seller_type | Whether the seller is a dealer or private party | | url | Direct link to the listing on MachineryZone | | scraped_at | Date and time the data was collected | ### Pricing **$6.00 per 1,000 results.

Each category contains listings from across Europe. ## `maxPages` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of result pages to collect per category. Each page contains up to 50 listings. Set to 0 for all pages. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum total number of listings to collect. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Residential proxy is required to bypass MachineryZone's anti-bot system (DataDome). This is included automatically with Apify plans. ## Actor input object example ```json { "category": "track-excavator", "maxPages": 5, "maxItems": 100, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ```` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): Dataset containing all scraped listings # 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 '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("scrappinglatam/machineryzone-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`๐Ÿ’พ 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); }); // ๐Ÿ“š Want to learn more ๐Ÿ“–?
