Tips for Best Results

Prefer Category URLs

• Use URLs that include /c<id>.html for highest success rate.
• Keyword-only URLs work, but category URLs are more consistent.

Start Small, Then Scale

• Validate with results_wanted: 20 first.
• Increase max_pages and results_wanted after confirming output.

Improve Reliability

• Use residential proxies for larger or frequent runs.
• The actor already uses internal fixed page-size and endpoint defaults.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do category URLs work better than generic search URLs?

Category URLs include a direct category identifier, which improves extraction consistency.

What happens if I provide a URL without category ID?

The actor applies an internal fallback category. For best relevance, use category URLs containing /c<id>.html.

Does the actor include raw listing metadata?

Yes. Non-empty listing metadata fields are preserved in the output.

How many records can I collect?

As many as available, limited by your results_wanted, max_pages, and source coverage.

Can I run this on a schedule?

Yes. Configure a schedule in Apify to collect snapshots continuously.
