Tips for Best Results

Start Small, Then Scale

• Begin with results_wanted: 20 to validate targeting and output quality.
• Increase to larger runs after confirming dataset structure.

Use Correct Target URLs

• Use stable city or region URLs as startUrl.
• Add regionId when you want strict region control.

Balance Speed and Stability

• Keep maxConcurrency around 3-5 for consistent throughput.
• Increase max_pages only when you need deeper coverage.

Improve Reliability for Production

• Use proxy settings for repeated or high-volume runs.
• Schedule periodic runs for monitoring instead of one very large run.

Keep Comparisons Clean

• Use fetched_at, propertyId, and listingId to compare snapshots.
• Track changes in price, status, and daysOnMarket between runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many properties can I collect per run?

You can set your target with results_wanted. Practical limits depend on your run settings and desired completion time.

Can I run this for different cities?

Yes. Replace startUrl with the city or region URL you want to collect.

Why are some fields missing in some records?

Listing pages do not always expose every field. The actor saves available values and skips empty values.

How do I keep runs under QA time limits?

Use results_wanted: 20 and reasonable max_pages values. This is the recommended QA-safe baseline.

Can I use this for ongoing monitoring?

Yes. Schedule recurring runs and compare price, status, and daysOnMarket over time.

Does it work with proxy settings?

Yes. You can pass proxyConfiguration for higher reliability in repeated production runs.

How do I export data after a run?

Use dataset export options in JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML formats.
