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 ## Avito.ma Scraper Fast and reliable Apify actor that scrapes listings from [Avito.ma](https://www.avito.ma) — Morocco's largest classifieds marketplace. ### Features - **Two input modes**: choose from 50+ predefined categories OR paste custom Avito.ma URLs - **Search filters**: keyword, city, sort order, min/max price - **Full detail scraping**: description, HD images, seller info, phone, attributes - **Smart limits**: `maxResults` stops scraping immediately when reached — no wasted requests - **Anti-detection**: user-agent rotation, viewport randomization, stealth mode, resource blocking - **Proxy support**: residential proxies recommended - **Fast**: blocks images/css/fonts, concurrent browser pages - **Structured JSON** output ready for analysis ### Pricing **$0.01 USD per result** — you only pay for the listings extracted. ### Input #### Categories & URLs | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | |-----------|------|---------|-------------| | `categories` | string[] | — | Select from 50+ predefined Avito.ma categories | | `categoryUrls` | string[] | — | Paste any Avito.ma category/search URLs directly | At least one of `categories` or `categoryUrls` is required. You can use both together. #### Search Filters | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | |-----------|------|---------|-------------| | `searchKeyword` | string | — | Filter by keyword (e.g. "iPhone 15", "Mercedes") | | `city` | string | — | Filter by city (e.g. "Casablanca", "Rabat") | | `sortBy` | string | — | Sort: `newest`, `oldest`, `price-low`, `price-high` | | `minPrice` | integer | — | Minimum price in MAD | | `maxPrice` | integer | — | Maximum price in MAD | #### Scraping Limits | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | |-----------|------|---------|-------------| | `maxResults` | integer | unlimited | Stop after this many results (across all URLs) | | `maxPages` | integer | 5 | Max pages per category (~38 listings/page) | | `scrapeDetails` | boolean | true | Visit detail pages for full data | | `maxConcurrency` | integer | 5 | Parallel browser tabs (1-20) | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | — | Apify proxy settings | #### Example Input ```json { "categories": ["smartphones", "ordinateurs-portables"], "searchKeyword": "iPhone 15", "city": "Casablanca", "sortBy": "newest", "minPrice": 5000, "maxPrice": 15000, "maxResults": 50, "maxPages": 10, "scrapeDetails": true, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ```` ### Output Each result contains: | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `avitoId` | string | Unique Avito listing ID | | `title` | string | Listing title | | `price` | number | Price value | | `currency` | string | Currency (MAD) | | `city` | string | City name | | `location` | string | Full location | | `category` | string | Category name | | `description` | string | Full description | | `images` | string\[] | Image URLs (HD when available) | | `details` | object | Category-specific attributes | | `sellerName` | string | Seller display name | | `sellerPhone` | string | Seller phone number | | `sellerId` | string | Seller Avito ID | | `sellerProfileUrl` | string | Seller profile URL | | `sellerMemberSince` | string | Year seller joined | | `sellerLocation` | string | Seller location | | `sellerTotalListings` | number | Seller's total active ads | | `listingUrl` | string | Direct link to listing | | `publishedAt` | string | Publication date | | `scrapedAt` | string | Scrape timestamp (ISO 8601) | | `_completeness` | string | `basic` (category only) or `full` (detail page visited) | #### Example Output ```json { "avitoId": "12345678", "title": "MacBook Pro M2 2023 - Comme neuf", "price": 15000, "currency": "MAD", "city": "Casablanca", "location": "Casablanca", "category": "Ordinateurs Portables", "description": "MacBook Pro M2 en excellent état...", "images": [ "https://content.avito.ma/classifieds/images/..." ], "details": { "Marque": "Apple", "Modèle": "MacBook Pro", "RAM": "16 Go" }, "sellerName": "TechShop", "sellerPhone": "0612345678", "sellerId": "987654", "sellerProfileUrl": "/profil/techshop", "sellerMemberSince": "2019", "sellerLocation": "Casablanca", "sellerTotalListings": 42, "listingUrl": "https://www.avito.ma/fr/casablanca/macbook_pro_m2-12345678.htm", "publishedAt": "2024-01-15T10:30:00.000Z", "scrapedAt": "2024-01-20T14:22:33.000Z", "_completeness": "full" } ``` ### How It Works 1. Resolves category slugs to Avito.ma URLs and applies search filters (keyword, city, sort, price) 2. Navigates using a stealth Playwright browser with randomized fingerprints 3. Extracts listing data from Next.js `__NEXT_DATA__` (no HTML parsing — fast & reliable) 4. Paginates through pages up to `maxPages`, stopping early if `maxResults` is reached 5. Optionally visits each detail page for full description, HD images, seller info, and attributes 6. Outputs structured JSON to the Apify dataset ### Tips - Use **residential proxies** for best reliability - Set `scrapeDetails: false` for faster runs when you only need basic listing info - Use `maxResults` to control costs — the scraper stops immediately when the limit is hit - Increase `maxConcurrency` for faster runs (monitor memory usage) - Each category page has ~38 listings, so `maxPages=10` gives ~380 results per URL - Combine `categories` with `searchKeyword` and price filters for precise targeting # Actor input Schema ## `categories` (type: `array`): Select one or more Avito.ma categories to scrape. You can combine this with custom URLs below. At least one of 'categories' or 'categoryUrls' is required. ## `categoryUrls` (type: `array`): Paste any Avito.ma category, search, or filtered URL directly. Use this for specific search queries or filtered results. At least one of 'categories' or 'categoryUrls' is required. ## `searchKeyword` (type: `string`): Filter listings by keyword (e.g. 'iPhone 15', 'Mercedes'). Applied as a search query parameter to all category URLs. ## `city` (type: `string`): Filter by city name (e.g. 'Casablanca', 'Rabat', 'Marrakech'). ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Sort order for results. ## `minPrice` (type: `integer`): Minimum price filter in MAD (Moroccan Dirham). ## `maxPrice` (type: `integer`): Maximum price filter in MAD (Moroccan Dirham). ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of listings to scrape across all categories/URLs. The scraper will stop when this limit is reached. Leave empty for unlimited. ## `maxPages` (type: `integer`): Maximum pages to scrape per category URL. Each page has ~38 listings. This is a per-category limit, not a global limit. ## `scrapeDetails` (type: `boolean`): Visit each listing page for full description, HD images, seller info, phone, and attributes. Disable for faster basic scraping. Detail pages take ~3-5 seconds each. ## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`): Number of parallel browser pages. Higher = faster but uses more memory. Recommended: 3-5 for stability. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Apify proxy settings. Residential proxies recommended for best reliability and to avoid blocking. ## Actor input object example ```json { "maxPages": 5, "scrapeDetails": true, "maxConcurrency": 5 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `avitoId` (type: `string`): Unique Avito listing identifier ## `title` (type: `string`): Listing title ## `price` (type: `string`): Price value ## `currency` (type: `string`): No description ## `city` (type: `string`): No description ## `location` (type: `string`): No description ## `category` (type: `string`): No description ## `description` (type: `string`): No description ## `images` (type: `string`): Image URLs (JSON array) ## `details` (type: `string`): Category attributes (JSON object) ## `sellerName` (type: `string`): No description ## `sellerPhone` (type: `string`): No description ## `sellerId` (type: `string`): No description ## `sellerProfileUrl` (type: `string`): No description ## `sellerMemberSince` (type: `string`): No description ## `sellerLocation` (type: `string`): No description ## `sellerTotalListings` (type: `string`): No description ## `listingUrl` (type: `string`): No description ## `publishedAt` (type: `string`): No description ## `scrapedAt` (type: `string`): No description ## `_completeness` (type: `string`): Data completeness level: 'basic' (category page only) or 'full' (detail page visited) # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
