Output data

The actor stores results in a structured dataset. Each item in the dataset represents one extracted record and contains the following key fields:

• Vehicle (vehicle)
• Trade In Value (tradeInValue)
• Private Party Value (privatePartyValue)
• Dealer Retail Value (dealerRetailValue)
• URL (url)
• Fair Market Range (fairMarketRange)
• Search Query (searchQuery)

Each run also includes a scrapedAt timestamp indicating when the data was collected. You can use this field to track data freshness across multiple runs.

Example output:

{
  "vehicle": "Example vehicle",
  "tradeInValue": "Example trade in value",
  "privatePartyValue": "Example private party value",
  "dealerRetailValue": "Example dealer retail value",
  "url": "https://example.com/page",
  "fairMarketRange": "Example fair market range",
  "searchQuery": "Example search query",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-02-18T00:00:00.000Z"
}

You can preview the data in the formatted Overview table on the Output tab, which displays the most important fields in an easy-to-read format. The full dataset with all fields is available for download or API access.

Cost of usage

This actor is priced using Apify's Pay-Per-Event model. Each successfully extracted result costs approximately $0.003 per item ($3.00 per 1,000 results).

• Extracting 100 results costs approximately $0.30
• Extracting 1,000 results costs approximately $3.00
• On the free Apify plan ($5/month platform credit), you can extract approximately 1,666 results per month

Platform usage costs (compute units for memory and CPU time) are charged separately by Apify at standard rates. Most runs of this actor complete quickly with minimal compute overhead, so the per-event charge represents the majority of the total cost.

Tips and advanced usage

This actor uses a headless browser (Puppeteer) to render JavaScript-heavy pages. It requires more memory than simple HTTP scrapers but can handle dynamic content that loads via JavaScript. The default memory allocation is optimized for most use cases, but you can increase it for sites with heavy JavaScript or many concurrent pages.

You can schedule this actor to run automatically at regular intervals using Apify Schedules. This is ideal for monitoring price changes, tracking new listings, aggregating fresh data, or keeping your dataset up to date without manual intervention. Schedules support cron expressions for precise timing control.

For large-scale extraction or integration into automated workflows, use the Apify API to start runs programmatically and retrieve results directly into your data pipeline. The actor integrates seamlessly with tools like Google Sheets, Zapier, Make (Integromat), and n8n for building automated data workflows. You can also use webhooks to trigger downstream actions when a run completes successfully.
