AutoHebdo Automotive Scraper: Extract Vehicle Listings & Pricing Data

---

What Is AutoHebdo (autotrader.ca)?

AutoHebdo.net is a major French automotive marketplace specializing in used vehicle (occasion) listings. It aggregates thousands of cars from dealers and private sellers, complete with pricing, specifications, images, and availability status. Extracting this data manually is tedious and error-prone — the AutoHebdo Automotive Scraper automates the process, delivering clean, structured vehicle records at scale.

---

Overview

The AutoHebdo Automotive Scraper extracts search result pages and detail listings from AutoHebdo.net, transforming raw HTML into machine-readable vehicle data. It is designed for:

• Car dealerships monitoring competitor inventory and pricing strategies
• Market researchers analyzing used vehicle trends and price movements
• Aggregator platforms feeding automotive inventory into multi-listing services
• Price intelligence tools building automotive cost benchmarks
• Data analysts studying the French automotive secondary market

Key strengths include pagination support, high-volume collection (up to 200 items per URL), and resilience via ignore_url_failures for uninterrupted bulk scraping.

---

Input Format

The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object with three main parameters:

{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.autohebdo.net/autos/ot_occasion?page=2&atype=C&search_id=yxntbf9v1p&source=listpage_pagination"
  ],
  "ignore_url_failures": true,
  "max_items_per_url": 200
}

Parameter	Type	Description
urls	Array	AutoHebdo.net (autotrader.ca) search result URLs or paginated listing pages. You can add multiple URLs to scrape across different searches, pages, or filters.
ignore_url_failures	Boolean	If true, the scraper continues processing remaining URLs even if some fail. Recommended for large batch runs.
max_items_per_url	Integer	Maximum number of vehicle listings to extract per URL (e.g., 200). Useful for controlling data volume and API quotas.

Tip: Extract the full search URL including query parameters (page, atype, search_id) to capture filtered results accurately.

How to Use

1. Find search URLs — Navigate to AutoHebdo.net, apply filters (price range, location, vehicle type), and copy the full URL from the search results page or paginated results.
2. Configure input — Paste URLs into the urls array. Set max_items_per_url (e.g., 200 for full page scraping).
3. Enable resilience — Set ignore_url_failures: true to handle any transient failures gracefully.
4. Run the scraper — Start the actor and monitor progress in the logs.
5. Download results — Export data as JSON, CSV, or integrate directly into your database.

Common tips:

• Include pagination parameters in the URL (e.g., ?page=2) to scrape specific result pages.
• Use filter parameters in the URL (atype=C for cars) to target specific vehicle types.
• For large datasets, split URLs across multiple runs to avoid timeouts.
