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 ## Otomoto Scraper Scrape **car listings from [Otomoto.pl](https://www.otomoto.pl)**, Poland's largest online automotive marketplace with over 7 million monthly visits. Extract prices, specifications, mileage, VIN numbers, seller information, and photos from hundreds of thousands of car listings. No login or cookies required. ### What does Otomoto Scraper do? This Actor extracts structured car listing data from Otomoto.pl search results.

This Actor uses a browser-based crawler (Playwright) with residential proxies for reliable access. Estimated cost: - **~0.5 compute units per 100 results** with residential proxy - At standard Apify pricing, that's roughly **$2.50 per 1,000 car listings** The cost depends on the number of pages scraped and proxy usage. Using the `maxResults` parameter and specific filters (make, model, year, price) helps control costs by reducing the number of pages to crawl. ### Tips for best results - **Use Polish residential proxies** -- Otomoto may block datacenter IPs. The default configuration uses Polish residential proxies for best results. - **Start small** -- Test with `maxResults: 10` before running large scrapes - **Use specific filters** -- Combining make, model, year, and price filters narrows results and reduces crawl time - **Make/model slugs** -- Use URL-friendly slugs like "bmw", "seria-3", "volkswagen", "golf" (check Otomoto URLs for exact slugs) - **Schedule runs** -- Set up daily or weekly runs to track price changes over time - **Fuel type filter** -- Use the fuel type dropdown to focus on specific powertrains ### Limitations - Polish residential proxies are recommended for reliable results - Some fields (VIN, full description, all images) may require detail page visits in future versions - Otomoto may rate-limit aggressive scraping; the actor uses moderate concurrency by default - Data is scraped from the public website and may change without notice if Otomoto updates their frontend ### FAQ and support **Is it legal to scrape Otomoto?** This Actor extracts publicly available data from Otomoto.pl. Always respect the website's terms of service and applicable laws in your jurisdiction. **The scraper returns no results.** Make sure you are using Polish residential proxies. Check that your search query or filters match actual listings on Otomoto.pl. **Can I scrape specific car makes or models?** Yes, use the `make` and `model` fields with Otomoto's URL slugs, or enter a search query like "BMW Seria 3". **Can I get listings from a specific region?** Region filtering is not yet supported as an input parameter, but you can filter the output data by the `location` and `city` fields. For bug reports or feature requests, please use the **Issues** tab.
