## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## 8891 Taiwan Used Cars Scraper — used-car listings with TWD prices, year and mileage

Get structured used-car listings from 8891, Taiwan's used-car marketplace: price in TWD, model year, mileage in km, city and view counts — clean JSON for price comparison, market research and inventory tracking, straight from the public list pages.

### Who it is for

- Car price-comparison and valuation tools building a Taiwan feed
- Dealers and platforms tracking asking prices by model, year and city
- Market researchers following used-car supply and pricing trends
- Anyone who needs Taiwan used-car data in JSON/CSV instead of scrolling listings

Why this one: prices and mileage are converted from 萬 units into plain TWD and km numbers (15.0萬 → 150000), detail URLs are kept in full exactly as published, and four list-stage filters (keyword, city, max price, min year) run before anything is collected — you only pay for cars that match.

### Real sample records

From a verified run (October 2026):

| Car | Price (TWD) | Year | Mileage | City |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Honda Civic 2011款 K12 1.8L | 150,000 | 2011 | 71,000 km | 桃園市 |
| Toyota Corolla Altis 2020款 GR Sport 1.8L | 268,000 | 2019 | 20,000 km | 桃園市 |

### Example output

One real record, exactly as delivered (all 13 fields):

```json
{
  "listingId": "4835877",
  "url": "https://auto.8891.com.tw/usedauto-infos-4835877.html?id=4835877&sale_code=3010013&display__sale_code=3010013&flow_id=75826a44-7839-4d9f-a003-14365f126d00",
  "title": "Honda Civic 2011款 K12 別再被低價釣魚！線上車庫現有300多台任你挑 1.8L",
  "subtitle": "低價只是吸引你點進去！買車要看真實價格！300多台車源任選，信用不良貸款也能評估",
  "priceText": "15.0萬",
  "priceTwd": 150000,
  "year": 2011,
  "mileageText": "7.1萬公里",
  "mileageKm": 71000,
  "locationText": "桃園市",
  "listedText": "20小時內刊登",
  "viewsCount": 610,
  "scrapedAt": "2026-10-18T09:37:39.152Z"
}
```

#### All fields

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| listingId / url | Listing ID and the full original detail URL, parameters preserved |
| title / subtitle | Verbatim as the seller wrote them (subtitle may be empty when the seller left it blank) |
| priceText / priceTwd | Price as written (萬） and converted to TWD |
| year | Model year as published |
| mileageText / mileageKm | Mileage as written （萬公里） and converted to km |
| locationText | City |
| listedText | Relative listing time as shown (e.g. 20小時內刊登） |
| viewsCount | View count at scrape time (it drifts upward as the page gets views) |
| scrapedAt | When this run read the page |

This is a list-mode Actor: detail pages are not fetched. Card photos are lazy-loaded and do not appear in the public list HTML, so no cover image is emitted rather than guessed. The OUTPUT record reports `totalListings` (the site's own published in-sale count at scrape time — it drifts, so do not treat it as an exact total) and `pagesFetched`.

### Price

**$0.0015 per listing — $1.50 per 1,000 listings.** No run-start fee.

### How to start

1. Click **Start** (or call the Actor via API) — no setup needed.
2. For a first test, try the prefilled example input (5 listings).
3. Download results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read them from the dataset API.

Example input:

```json
{ "maxItems": 5 }
```

Parameters: `maxItems` (default 50), `proxyConfiguration` (proxy settings; direct connection by default). List-stage filters: `keyword` (title), `cityContains`, `maxPriceTwd`, `minYear`. Filter example: `{ "maxItems": 10, "keyword": "Toyota", "cityContains": "桃園市", "maxPriceTwd": 600000, "minYear": 2018 }`. Pages are read at ~1 request/second with a hard page cap, so over-strict filters stop cleanly instead of paging forever.

### Limits and compliance

- Only publicly visible list pages are read: no login, no captcha solving.
- There are no dedicated seller fields: titles and subtitles are reproduced verbatim as sellers wrote them, including any commercial contact details (such as a phone number or LINE ID) a seller chose to publish in that text.
- Prices, mileage and view counts reflect the page at scrape time.
- You are responsible for checking the site's terms and your local law before using the data commercially.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("stone_jadex/8891-taiwan-used-cars").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call stone_jadex/8891-taiwan-used-cars --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,stone_jadex/8891-taiwan-used-cars"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
