## 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

## Padmapper Scraper

![banner](https://i.imgur.com/vThQaNS.png)

Padmapper (padmapper.com) is a US apartment rental marketplace. This actor collects structured apartment and building detail data from Padmapper listing pages.

### Introduction

The Padmapper scraper starts from apartment listing URLs, collects property detail URLs from the results, follows pagination, and extracts structured building or listing data such as address, coordinates, amenities, agents, media, floorplans, lease information, and more.

### Use Cases

- **Rental market research**: Track apartment inventory, amenities, and pricing in selected areas.
- **Property monitoring**: Watch listing changes for specific cities, neighborhoods, or map views.
- **Lead generation**: Build structured datasets of rental properties for sales, outreach, or enrichment.
- **Analytics pipelines**: Feed BI tools, warehousing, and reporting workflows with normalized rental data.

### Input

Provide the following fields:

- `startUrls` (array, required): Padmapper apartment listing URLs.
- `maxItems` (integer, required): Maximum number of detail items to extract per start URL.
- `proxyConfiguration` (object, optional): Apify proxy settings used for HTTP requests and next-page browser capture.

Notes:

- The default US residential proxy configuration is strongly recommended for scraping stability.
- `maxItems` is enforced per source URL.

### Input Examples

**1) Start URLs**

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.padmapper.com/apartments/new-york-ny?box=-74.2557,40.496,-73.7002,40.9176"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 30,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "US"
  }
}
```

### Output

Each dataset item contains fields like:

```json
{
  "scrapedAt": "2026-04-23T07:07:57.431Z",
  "entityType": "Building",
  "buildingId": 1195424,
  "listingId": null,
  "name": "Summit Manor",
  "url": "https://www.padmapper.com/buildings/p423032/summit-manor-apartments-at-70-berkshire-pl-hackensack-nj-07601",
  "homepage": "https://hekemian.com/apartments/summit-manor/?utm_source=zumper&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=amplify",
  "formattedAddress": "70 Berkshire Pl, Hackensack, NJ 07601, USA",
  "city": "Hackensack",
  "state": "NJ",
  "zipcode": "07601",
  "lat": 40.888677,
  "lng": -74.061118,
  "phone": "(551) 205-0698",
  "amenities": ["Garage Parking", "Onsite Laundry", "High-Speed Internet"],
  "mediaCount": 18,
  "agentsCount": 1,
  "floorplanCount": 2,
  "floorplans": [
    {
      "listingId": 58022779,
      "title": "1BR/1BA",
      "price": 2195,
      "bedrooms": 1,
      "bathrooms": 1,
      "squareFeet": 850
    }
  ]
}
```

The scraper paginates through listing results and stops when `maxItems` is reached per start URL or when no more detail items are found.

### Why use the Padmapper Scraper?

- **Focused**: Built specifically for Padmapper apartment listing flows.
- **Structured output**: Returns clean JSON records for property analytics and automation.
- **Per-URL limits**: `maxItems` is enforced per source URL.
- **Pagination support**: Continues from page 1 into later result pages.
- **Apify-native**: Works with Apify datasets, request queue, and proxy configuration.

### FAQ

- **How many properties can it extract?**\
  Controlled by `maxItems` per source URL.

- **Do I need proxies?**\
  Yes, the default US residential proxy configuration is highly recommended for stable scraping on Padmapper.

- **What data does it return?**\
  It returns property detail data such as address, coordinates, amenities, media, agents, floorplans, and other metadata available on the page.

- **What if Padmapper changes its page structure?**\
  The actor may require updates to keep extraction stable.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.padmapper.com/apartments/new-york-ny?box=-74.2557,40.496,-73.7002,40.9176"
    }

}' |
apify call lexis-solutions/padmapper-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

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