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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Marktplaats Scraper Scrape classified listings from Marktplaats.nl — the Netherlands' largest online marketplace with over 10 million active listings. Also supports 2dehands.be (Belgium) which runs on the same backend. Extract prices, seller info, images, locations, and more. No login or cookies required. ### Why use this actor? Marktplaats dominates the Dutch classifieds market with millions of daily visitors. This actor calls the internal Marktplaats API directly, giving you fast, structured data for market research, price monitoring, competitor analysis, and inventory sourcing. **Use cases:** - **Price monitoring** — track secondhand market prices for any product category - **Market research** — analyze listing volumes, pricing trends, and regional supply - **Inventory sourcing** — find deals on electronics, furniture, vehicles, and more - **Competitor analysis** — monitor what sellers are listing and at what prices - **Cross-border analysis** — compare NL (Marktplaats) and BE (2dehands) markets with one actor ### Input | Field | Type | Required | Description | |-------|------|----------|-------------| | `query` | String | No | Search term (e.g. "laptop", "fiets", "iPhone 15") | | `category` | String | No | Marktplaats category (e.g. "auto-s", "fietsen-en-brommers") | | `location` | String | No | Postcode to search around (e.g. "1012" for Amsterdam) | | `distanceKm` | Integer | No | Search radius in km from the postcode | | `minPrice` | Number | No | Minimum price filter in EUR | | `maxPrice` | Number | No | Maximum price filter in EUR | | `condition` | String | No | Filter: "Nieuw", "Zo goed als nieuw", or "Gebruikt" | | `sortBy` | String | No | Sort: "relevance", "newest", "cheapest", "most-expensive" | | `maxResults` | Integer | No | Maximum listings to return (default: 100, max: 5,000) | | `platform` | String | No | "marktplaats" (default) or "2dehands" for Belgium | | `proxyConfiguration` | Object | No | Proxy settings for extra reliability | ### Output Each result contains: | Field | Type | Example | |-------|------|---------| | `itemId` | String | `"m2045678901"` | | `title` | String | `"iPhone 15 Pro 256GB zwart"` | | `description` | String | Full listing description | | `price` | Number | `849.00` | | `currency` | String | `"EUR"` | | `priceType` | String | `"FIXED"`, `"BIDDING"`, `"SEE_DESCRIPTION"` | | `condition` | String | `"Zo goed als nieuw"` | | `deliveryMethod` | String | `"Ophalen of Verzenden"` | | `city` | String | `"Amsterdam"` | | `country` | String | `"Netherlands"` | | `latitude` | Number | `52.3676` | | `longitude` | Number | `4.9041` | | `sellerName` | String | `"Piet"` | | `sellerId` | Number | `12345678` | | `sellerVerified` | Boolean | `true` | | `category` | String | `"Telecommunicatie"` | | `imageUrls` | Array | List of image URLs | | `listingDate` | String | `"2026-04-01T10:30:00Z"` | | `url` | String | Full listing URL | | `platform` | String | `"marktplaats"` | | `scrapedAt` | String | ISO timestamp | ### Example output ```json { "itemId": "m2045678901", "title": "iPhone 15 Pro 256GB zwart - als nieuw", "description": "Te koop: iPhone 15 Pro 256GB in zwart, nauwelijks gebruikt...", "price": 849.00, "currency": "EUR", "priceType": "FIXED", "condition": "Zo goed als nieuw", "deliveryMethod": "Ophalen of Verzenden", "city": "Amsterdam", "country": "Netherlands", "latitude": 52.3676, "longitude": 4.9041, "sellerName": "Piet", "sellerId": 12345678, "sellerVerified": true, "category": "Telecommunicatie", "imageUrls": [ "https://images.marktplaats.com/api/v1/listing-mp-prod/images/ab/ab123456.jpg" ], "listingDate": "2026-04-01T10:30:00Z", "url": "https://www.marktplaats.nl/v/telecommunicatie/mobiele-telefoons/m2045678901-iphone-15-pro-256gb", "platform": "marktplaats", "scrapedAt": "2026-04-08T12:00:00.000Z" } ```` ### How to use the API Call the actor via the Apify API: ```bash curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/studio-amba~marktplaats-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \ -X POST \ -d '{"query": "fiets", "maxResults": 50}' \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" ``` ### Cost estimate This actor uses approximately **0.01 compute units per 100 results**. It calls a lightweight JSON API with no browser overhead. ### Tips - Use `platform: "2dehands"` to scrape Belgian listings from 2dehands.be - Combine `location` + `distanceKm` for local market analysis - The 35 category options cover everything from cars to electronics to real estate - Works without proxies but you can add them for extra reliability ### Limitations - The API returns a maximum of 5,000 results per query - Some fields (condition, delivery method) may be empty if the seller didn't fill them in - Data is scraped from the internal API and may change without notice - Respect the website's terms of service and use responsibly # Actor input Schema ## `query` (type: `string`): Search term (e.g. 'laptop', 'fiets', 'iPhone 15'). Leave empty to browse a category. ## `category` (type: `string`): Top-level Marktplaats category to filter results. ## `location` (type: `string`): Dutch or Belgian postcode to search around (e.g. '1012' for Amsterdam, '2000' for Antwerp). ## `distanceKm` (type: `integer`): Search radius in kilometers from the postcode. Only works when location is set. ## `minPrice` (type: `number`): Minimum price filter in euros. ## `maxPrice` (type: `number`): Maximum price filter in euros. ## `condition` (type: `string`): Filter by item condition. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): How to sort results. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of listings to scrape. The API allows up to 5,000 per query. ## `platform` (type: `string`): Which platform to scrape. Marktplaats.nl (Netherlands) and 2dehands.be (Belgium) use the same backend. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings. The Marktplaats API works without proxies, but you can configure them for extra reliability. ## Actor input object example ```json { "query": "laptop", "distanceKm": 0, "sortBy": "relevance", "maxResults": 100, "platform": "marktplaats" } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
