## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Aqarmap Egypt Property Listings Scraper

Collect public property listings (for sale and for rent) from [aqarmap.com.eg](https://aqarmap.com.eg), Egypt's property portal, as clean structured data: price, size, rooms, location hierarchy, coordinates, amenities, photos and posting date.

This actor collects only public, non-personal listing data. It does not output seller or agent names, phone numbers, e-mail addresses or profile links, and it removes phone numbers, e-mail addresses and links that sellers typed into description text.

### What you get

One flat JSON object per listing:

```json
{
  "listingId": "7267802",
  "url": "https://aqarmap.com.eg/en/listing/7267802-for-sale-cairo-6th-of-october-el-tawsaat-el-shamalya-hy-2000-qt/",
  "title": "Apartment Semi Finished For sale in The 2000 Pieces",
  "listingType": "sale",
  "propertyType": "Apartment",
  "price": 2150000,
  "currency": "EGP",
  "pricePeriod": null,
  "pricePerSqm": 13870,
  "areaSqm": 155,
  "bedrooms": 3,
  "bathrooms": 2,
  "floor": "2",
  "finishing": "Semi Finished",
  "view": "Main Street",
  "yearBuilt": 2026,
  "sellerType": "Broker",
  "locationPath": ["Greater Cairo", "6th of October", "Northern Expansions", "The 2000 Pieces"],
  "location": "Greater Cairo / 6th of October / Northern Expansions / The 2000 Pieces",
  "latitude": 29.977706310303,
  "longitude": 30.887832639855,
  "amenities": ["ELEVATOR", "SWIMMING_POOL", "BALCONY", "SECURITY"],
  "description": "Apartments For sale in The 2000 Pieces with size 155 M² View Main Street",
  "imageCount": 7,
  "imageUrls": ["https://img-4.aqarmap.com.eg/..."],
  "thumbnailUrl": "https://img-2.aqarmap.com.eg/...",
  "datePosted": "2026-11-09T13:22:25.000Z",
  "searchUrl": "https://aqarmap.com.eg/en/for-sale/apartment/cairo/",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-11-10T08:00:00.000Z"
}
```

(amenities list shortened here.) Dates are ISO 8601 UTC; numbers are numbers. Fields a listing does not have are `null`. In our test runs, listing ID, price, area, location, coordinates, description and posting date were filled for 100% of listings, bedrooms and bathrooms about 98%, floor and view about 95%, amenities about 95%, year built about 55% and finishing about 48% (many sellers leave those blank).

### Input

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `listingType` | `for-sale` (default) or `for-rent` |
| `propertyType` | Site slug, default `apartment` (e.g. villa, duplex, penthouse, land) |
| `location` | Site path, default `cairo` (e.g. `alexandria`, `cairo/new-cairo`) |
| `startUrls` | Instead of the three fields above: one or more aqarmap.com.eg search URLs |
| `keyword` | Keep listings whose title, location or description contains this text |
| `minPrice`, `maxPrice` | Price range in EGP |
| `postedWithinDays` | Only listings posted in the last N days |
| `includeDetails` | Default on: open each listing for date, description, coordinates, amenities, photos. Off: search-card data only |
| `maxItems` | Default 50 |
| `proxyConfiguration` | Optional. Our tests ran without a proxy |

Examples:

```json
{ "listingType": "for-rent", "propertyType": "apartment", "location": "cairo/new-cairo", "maxItems": 100 }
```

```json
{ "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://aqarmap.com.eg/en/for-sale/villa/alexandria/" }], "maxPrice": 15000000, "maxItems": 200 }
```

### Cost and speed

This actor is free: you pay only your own Apify platform usage. In our tests that was about $0.08 per 1,000 listings with detail pages and about $0.03 per 1,000 with `includeDetails` off (1 GB memory). Speed is about 0.7 listings per second, because the actor keeps at least 1 second between requests and uses 2 parallel requests.

### Limits and honest notes

- Result ordering is the site's default; the site offers no date sort we could use, so `postedWithinDays` and `keyword` make the actor read more pages until it has `maxItems` matches, which costs more per returned item (about 3 listing pages read per match in one keyword test).
- Filters that the site's robots.txt disallows (price, rooms, keyword and similar URL parameters) are never sent to the site; the actor filters price and keyword itself.
- Not extracted: payment plans, down payments, installment terms, video, floor plans. For rent listings `pricePeriod` holds the period the site prints next to the price (`month` in every rent listing we saw; `null` for sale listings and listings without a price).
- A `location` or `propertyType` the site does not know makes the site redirect to a broader search; the actor detects that and stops with an error instead of returning listings from the wrong place.
- If the site answers with HTTP 403 or 429 five times in a row the run stops and reports it in the log instead of retrying. Failed pages are retried with growing waits.
- Tested with: for-sale and for-rent apartments in Greater Cairo and New Cairo, and for-rent villas in Alexandria. Other property types and locations use the same page layout but were not tested.
- Some listings carry no price (the seller did not publish one); `price` is then `null`.
- You are responsible for using the data in line with the law that applies to you and with the site's terms.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

aqarmap.com.eg search result URLs, for example https://aqarmap.com.eg/en/for-rent/apartment/cairo/new-cairo/. If set, the fields below that build a URL (listing type, property type, location) are ignored. Filter parameters that the site's robots.txt disallows are removed automatically; use the price filters below instead.

## `listingType` (type: `string`):

Buy or rent.

## `propertyType` (type: `string`):

URL slug of the property type, as used on aqarmap.com.eg, e.g. apartment, villa, duplex, penthouse, chalet, land, shop, office.

## `location` (type: `string`):

Location path as on the site, e.g. cairo, alexandria, cairo/new-cairo. Copy it from the address bar of a search on aqarmap.com.eg; a path the site does not know stops the run with an error instead of returning listings from elsewhere. Leave empty for all of Egypt.

## `keyword` (type: `string`):

Keep only listings whose title, location or description contains this text (case-insensitive). Applied by the actor after fetching each listing, so it needs detail pages.

## `minPrice` (type: `integer`):

Skip listings priced below this. Applied by the actor.

## `maxPrice` (type: `integer`):

Skip listings priced above this. Applied by the actor.

## `postedWithinDays` (type: `integer`):

Keep only listings posted in the last N days. Needs detail pages. The site does not offer a date sort, so the actor scans result pages until it has maxItems matches.

## `includeDetails` (type: `boolean`):

On (default): one extra request per listing to add description, posting date, coordinates, amenities, floor, view, year built, seller role and all photos. Off: only the data on the search result cards (faster and cheaper, no date or description).

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many listings. Default 50; the Store's automatic daily test uses the prefill (5) so it finishes within seconds.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional. The site worked from Apify datacenter IPs without a proxy in our tests.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [],
  "listingType": "for-sale",
  "propertyType": "apartment",
  "location": "cairo",
  "includeDetails": true,

  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `listings` (type: `string`):

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,zuse-ventures/aqarmap-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
