## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

# README

## MotoScout24.ch Scraper: Extract Motorcycle Listings from Switzerland's Top Market
---

### What Is MotoScout24.com?

MotoScout24.ch is Switzerland's leading online marketplace for new and used motorcycles, scooters, and other two-wheeled vehicles. It aggregates thousands of listings from private sellers and professional dealers across the country. Manually collecting this data is impractical at scale — the **MotoScout24 Scraper** automates extraction, turning paginated search results into clean, structured datasets ready for analysis or integration.

---

### Overview

The **MotoScout24 Motos Search Scraper** processes search result pages and extracts comprehensive listing records. It is built for:

- **Dealers & importers** monitoring market pricing and inventory
- **Automotive analysts** tracking moto trends in the Swiss market
- **Aggregator platforms** feeding data into custom vehicle search tools
- **Researchers** studying two-wheeler demand, fuel types, or regional availability

Key capabilities include multi-page URL support, configurable item limits, and resilient handling of failed URLs.

---

### Input Format

The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object with three parameters:

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.motoscout24.ch/en/s?pagination%5Bpage%5D=1"
  ],
  "ignore_url_failures": true,
  "max_items_per_url": 50
}
````

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `urls` | `array` | One or more MotoScout24 **search result page** URLs. Add them one by one or paste a bulk list. Example: paginated search URLs like `?pagination[page]=2`. |
| `max_items_per_url` | `integer` | Maximum number of listings to collect per URL. Default: `20`. Set higher (e.g., `50`) for denser runs. |
| `ignore_url_failures` | `boolean` | If `true`, the scraper skips failed URLs and continues instead of stopping the entire run. Default: `true`. Recommended for bulk jobs. |

> **Tip:** To scrape multiple pages, add each paginated URL separately — e.g., `?pagination%5Bpage%5D=1`, `=2`, `=3`. You can also filter by category, make, or region directly in the MotoScout24 search UI, then copy the resulting URL.

### How to Use

1. **Build your search URL** — Go to MotoScout24.ch, apply filters (category, make, canton, price range), and copy the results page URL.
2. **Add pagination** — For multiple pages, duplicate the URL and increment `pagination[page]` values.
3. **Configure the input** — Paste URLs into the `urls` array. Adjust `max_items_per_url` based on how many results appear per page (typically 20–50).
4. **Run the scraper** — Start the actor and monitor progress in the run log.
5. **Export** — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel for use in spreadsheets, databases, or BI dashboards.

**Common issues:**

- Ensure URLs point to **search result pages**, not individual listing detail pages.
- If results seem incomplete, verify the page actually returns listings at that pagination index.
- Use `ignore_url_failures: true` when running large URL batches.

***

### Use Cases & Business Value

- **Competitive pricing intelligence:** Track how dealers price comparable models across Switzerland
- **Inventory analysis:** Monitor stock levels by brand, category, or region
- **Market trend research:** Study shifts in fuel type preference (e.g., electric vs. petrol growth)
- **Lead generation:** Identify private sellers for targeted outreach
- **Price alert systems:** Detect price drops via `Previous Price` vs. `Price` comparison

***

The **MotoScout24 Motos Search Scraper** delivers a complete picture of Switzerland's two-wheeler market in a structured, analysis-ready format. With 34 fields covering specs, pricing, condition, seller, and media, it eliminates manual data collection and enables scalable market intelligence.
