## Pricing

from $1.00 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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`).

## Kleinanzeigen Scraper

> **The specialized scraper for Kleinanzeigen.de.** Extract detailed listings including prices, photos, descriptions, and locations from Germany's largest classifieds market.

### 🚀 Why this scraper?

Most Kleinanzeigen scrapers require manual filtering or struggle with the strict anti-bot protection. **This actor is optimized for stability.**

**Kleinanzeigen Scraper** acts like a real user:

1. You provide a **Search Keyword** (e.g., "Fahrrad").
2. The actor navigates, searches, handles pagination, and extracts clean data using JSON-LD metadata for highest quality.

**Perfect for:**

- 📉 **Price Monitoring:** Track market prices for used goods.
- 🏠 **Real Estate:** Find new apartment listings ("Wohnung mieten").
- 🚗 **Automotive:** Monitor car prices.
- 🛍️ **Arbitrage:** Find undervalued items.

***

### 📖 How to Use

#### Option 1: Apify Console (No Coding)

1. Go to the **Input** tab.
2. Enter your **Search Keyword** (e.g., `PlayStation 5`).
3. **Proxy Selection:** Select "Apify Proxy" (**Residential Germany** is highly recommended) OR select your own custom proxy groups.
4. Click **Start**.
5. Download your data in Excel, CSV, or JSON format.

#### Option 2: API (Developers)

You can trigger this actor programmatically via REST API, Python, or Node.js.

##### Input Payload (JSON)

```json
{
    "searchQuery": "iPhone 13 mini",
    "maxPages": 1,
    "maxRequestsPerCrawl": 50,
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true,
        "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
        "apifyProxyCountry": "DE"
    }
}
```

##### 🐍 Python Example (Simple & Clean)

```python
import json
from apify_client import ApifyClient

## 1. Configuration
APIFY_TOKEN = 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN'
ACTOR_ID = 'daddyapi/kleinanzeigen-scraper'

client = ApifyClient(APIFY_TOKEN)

## 2. Define Input
run_input = {
    "searchQuery": "MacBook Pro M1",
    "maxPages": 1,
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": True,
        "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
        "apifyProxyCountry": "DE"
    }
}

print(f"🚀 Starting scraper for: {run_input['searchQuery']}...")

## 3. Run Actor
run = client.actor(ACTOR_ID).call(run_input=run_input)

if not run:
    print("❌ Failed to start run.")
    exit(1)

print(f"✅ Run finished! Status: {run['status']}")

## 4. Fetch & Save Results
dataset_client = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"])
items = dataset_client.list_items().items

filename = "results.json"
with open(filename, "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
    json.dump(items, f, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False)

print(f"💾 Saved {len(items)} listings to {filename}")
```

***

### 🔒 Proxy Configuration (Bring Your Own Proxies)

This actor is fully compatible with **Apify Proxy** (Datacenter & Residential) and **Custom Proxies**.

#### 1. Residential Proxies (Germany)

**Highly Recommended.** Kleinanzeigen has very strict bot detection. Residential proxies from Germany provide the best success rate.

```json
{
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true,
        "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
        "apifyProxyCountry": "DE"
    }
}
```

#### 2. Custom Proxies

If you have proxies from an external provider (BrightData, Smartproxy, etc.), pass the connection strings directly.

```json
{
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": false,
        "proxyUrls": [
            "http://username:password@my-proxy.example.com:8000"
        ]
    }
}
```

});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("daddyapi/kleinanzeigen-scraper").call(input);

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call daddyapi/kleinanzeigen-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,daddyapi/kleinanzeigen-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).
