## 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

## Marktplaats.nl Scraper

Marktplaats.nl Scraper gives Dutch classifieds researchers and resellers structured results from public pages. Start with a Marktplaats category, search or listing URL and export title, price, location, category and seller information.

### What you can do

- Compare Dutch asking prices and price types for second-hand goods.
- Use category, city and seller details to organize a local marketplace snapshot.
- Review descriptions and item attributes before selecting listings for a closer look.

### Who uses it

- A bicycle reseller can collect a search and compare prices, locations and published attributes.
- A furniture market researcher can review category listings and open detail pages for richer descriptions and galleries.

### Result preview

**Illustrative only:** invented examples show the shape of the data; they are not real results. A dash indicates an unavailable value.

| Title | Price | City | Category | Price type |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Used table | 75 EUR | Example city | Furniture | Fixed |
| Used bicycle | 150 EUR | Example town | Bicycles | Fixed |
| Used chair | — | Example city | Furniture | Bidding |

Fields may be absent when the source does not publish them.

### Why choose this Actor

- Accepts category, search and listing URLs, supporting discovery and individual inspection.
- Detail mode adds richer descriptions, galleries and seller information; list results preserve price type because not every listing has a fixed asking price.

### Pricing

Prices in **USD**, verified on 4 November 2026. Check the current Pricing tab before running.

| Result type | Event price |
| --- | ---: |
| List listing | $0.6 per 1,000 results |
| Listing with details | $0.6 per 1,000 results |

The detail event replaces the list event for the same result; the two are not added together. For example, 1,000 results at the list listing rate incur $0.6 in result-event charges. This calculation covers Actor event charges. Review Pricing for any separately listed platform usage; later access to stored data follows Apify's applicable storage pricing.

### Try it in three steps

1. Enter a Marktplaats category, search or listing URL. Set a small result limit for your first run.
2. Turn on **Open each listing page** for richer descriptions, galleries and seller information, or leave it off for list results. Run the Actor.
3. Inspect the dataset and export the results in your preferred available format.

### Coverage and FAQ

**What are the limits?** Prices may be bids or other non-fixed price types. A failed detail request can leave a list row; contact fields are not guaranteed.

The requested result limit defaults to 50 and can be set up to 2,000 per run.

**Is this a live feed?** Each run is a snapshot of available source information. Listings, prices and other details may change after collection; a requested maximum is a ceiling, not a promise of that many results.

**Can I use the data for ongoing analysis?** Yes, export it to your own workflow. Scheduling repeated runs or acting on the exported results requires your own workflow.

# Changelog

This Actor's version history is a separate document: https://apify.com/stone_jadex/marktplaats-nl-scraper/changelog.md

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Optional. Marktplaats.nl category e.g. https://www.marktplaats.nl/l/huis-en-inrichting/, search https://www.marktplaats.nl/q/iphone/, or listing /v/.../a{id}-.... Empty input uses five dense default categories.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many listings.

## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

Optional. Each category page has about 24–31 listings from **NEXT_DATA**.

## `startPage` (type: `integer`):

First search page when the start URL does not already set /p/N/.

## `fetchDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Adds richer description/gallery/seller fields from the public detail page. Charged as listing-detail instead of listing. Prefer list-only to stay within the cost gate. If a detail page fails, the list row is kept and charged as listing.

## `requestDelayMs` (type: `integer`):

At least 1 second between request starts. A Crawl-delay in robots.txt can only raise this.

## `concurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many search or detail pages may be requested at once. Rows are saved in page order. At least 1 second still passes between request starts.

## `maxRunSeconds` (type: `integer`):

Stops cleanly and writes the OUTPUT record before this limit.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Direct connection by default. Do not default to residential. A residential proxy is a fallback only (turn on useProxyFallback) and is capped at a fixed 5 MB per run.

## `useProxyFallback` (type: `boolean`):

When a proxy is configured, stay on a direct connection until repeated HTTP 403 or 429 responses, then switch to that proxy. A residential proxy is meant to be used this way, as a fallback — never as the default.

## `allowDetailOnResidential` (type: `boolean`):

Detail pages stay on a direct connection when the proxy group is residential. Turn this on only if those detail pages should use the residential proxy too.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "maxItems": 50,
  "startPage": 1,
  "fetchDetails": false,
  "requestDelayMs": 1000,
  "concurrency": 1,
  "maxRunSeconds": 3600,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  },
  "useProxyFallback": false,
  "allowDetailOnResidential": false
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `listings` (type: `string`):

Default dataset with one row per delivered listing, plus one uncharged run-notice row when the run is shortened.

## `runSummary` (type: `string`):

Key-value record OUTPUT: run counters (pushed, duplicatesSkipped, filteredOut, removedListings, removedBy), timing, HTTP and robots statistics, seeds, errors, normalized input, and a plain-English statusMessage. Invalid input stores an early-failure summary before the run throws.

# API

    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/marktplaats-nl-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call stone_jadex/marktplaats-nl-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,stone_jadex/marktplaats-nl-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

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).
