Performance Tips

• Set maxItems to control the number of vehicles scraped and limit run duration

Important Notes

• Proxy Required: When scrapeDetails: true, proxy configuration is required to fetch registration numbers (licensePlateNumber) from HTML pages

  • API calls work without proxy (fast & reliable)
  • HTML fetching for registration numbers requires proxy on Apify platform
  • Proxy is automatically configured when using Apify Proxy

• The scraper extracts publicly available data from Autoplac.pl

• Not all vehicle listings have complete information:

  • Registration numbers are optional (~30-40% of listings include them)
  • VIN numbers are available for most vehicles (~80-90%)
  • Some detailed fields may be empty even with scrapeDetails: true

• The scraper automatically handles pagination until maxItems is reached

• All numeric values (price, mileage, year, etc.) are returned as numbers, not strings

• Location coordinates are provided when available for geographic analysis
