Tips For Best Results

Start With Default Volume

• Use results_wanted: 20 first to validate destination and timing.
• Increase volume only after verifying stable output.

Use Residential Proxies

• Residential routing improves reliability on protected travel pages.
• Keep request volume moderate when collecting large destination sets.

Keep Dates Valid

• Use valid future check-in/check-out values when building URLs from parameters.
• Ensure check-out is after check-in.

Expect Field Variance

• Not every listing exposes every field.
• Empty/null fields are removed automatically from dataset records.

---

Integrations

• Google Sheets - Export pricing and rating snapshots for analysts.
• Airtable - Build searchable destination and hotel tracking tables.
• Looker Studio - Visualize market trends across city/date combinations.
• Webhooks - Trigger downstream enrichment or alerting pipelines.

Export Formats

• JSON - Best for APIs and programmatic pipelines.
• CSV - Best for spreadsheet workflows.
• Excel - Best for reporting teams.
• XML - Best for legacy integrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are some fields missing in certain records?

Listings do not always expose the same details. The actor keeps only non-empty values.

Can I scrape multiple destinations?

Yes. Run one job per destination URL or schedule separate runs with different input payloads.

How many listings can I collect?

It depends on destination inventory and load depth. Increase max_pages and results_wanted as needed.

Why does proxy matter?

Some Expedia result pages apply request-rate controls. Residential proxies improve run stability.

Does the actor remove duplicates?

Yes. Duplicate listing cards are filtered by hotel ID.
