Chileautos Scraper

🚗 Chileautos Scraper

Extract car, motorcycle, truck, and bus listings from Chileautos.cl: make, model, year, price, odometer, fuel, transmission, body type, seller, region, and photos, as clean structured rows. No browser, no proxy, CSV/JSON/Excel ready.

Chileautos is Chile's largest vehicle classifieds site, with tens of thousands of active listings. Its listing pages are protected by DataDome, but this Actor talks directly to the same JSON API the site itself uses to render results, so it never needs a browser, a proxy, or a CAPTCHA solve to work.

💰 $0.02 per vehicle on the Free plan (10 vehicles per run), from $0.019 on paid plans. See pricing

✨ Why this scraper?

• Zero proxy, zero browser, by design
  Every request is a plain JSON call to the same endpoint the site's own search page calls, not a workaround bolted onto a browser scraper.

• No artificial page cap
  It keeps going until the matching pool is exhausted, instead of stopping at a fixed number of pages.

• Transparent about sponsored content
  Featured/boosted listings are flagged, not silently mixed in with organic results.

• One run, many searches
  Keywords are a list, run "corolla" and "civic" together and get both back, each tagged with the term that matched.

• Paste a search link, or use the filters
  Already built a search on chileautos.cl? Paste that page's URL and it's reused exactly, same as pasting a startUrl on other scrapers.

• Every filter Chileautos itself offers
  Make, several models at once, body type, condition, region, several cities at once, fuel, transmission, color, price/year/km ranges.

• Apify platform
  Schedule runs, get only new vehicles, export to Excel or CSV, use the API, or connect Google Sheets, Zapier and Make.

⚖️ How it compares

Capability	This actor	scraperschile/chileautos
Paste a search link from the site instead of filling filters	yes	yes (startUrl)
Needs a browser or proxy in normal operation	no, pure JSON API	no (own README: structured route first)
Ships a browser + proxy fallback path at all	no	yes (documented fallback for when the structured route fails)
Public 30-day run reliability (from each Actor's Apify stats)	0 of 103 runs failed	37 of 486 runs failed or timed out (~8%)
Multiple keywords in one run, tagged per row	yes	no (single filter set per run)
Sponsored/featured listings flagged	yes	not exposed
Seller (dealership) name in output	yes	yes
Seller phone and WhatsApp	yes	not listed in their output fields
Price, year and km range filters	yes	yes
Model filter	yes, several models in one run	yes
City filter	yes, several cities in one run	yes, plus comuna
Seller description and full spec sheet (60+ specs on most cars)	yes (Include full listing details)	not listed in their output fields
Raw query override for power users	yes	no

Comuna filtering inside greater Santiago is the one place the other actor is ahead: Chileautos files all of greater Santiago under the single city "Santiago", so this one filters by city, and Include full listing details adds each vehicle's comuna to the row.

❓ FAQ and troubleshooting

Is there a Chileautos API? Do I need an API key?

Chileautos has no public data API for this. This Actor works as a Chileautos API alternative: it reads the public pages and gives you clean JSON, CSV or Excel, with no API key, no login and no code to maintain. You can also call it from your own code with the Apify API, or from an AI agent through MCP: claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=normdata/chileautos-scraper"

Why do I get only 10 vehicles?

On the Apify free plan each run saves up to 10 results, so you can try it before paying. Any paid plan removes the limit.

Why am I getting no results?

Make, Model, Region, City, Body type, and Color must match Chileautos' own spelling exactly (see the examples in each field's description). Chileautos itself doesn't error on an unrecognized value, it silently answers with its general catalog instead, so this Actor double-checks Make, Region, and Condition on every row and drops anything that doesn't actually match, rather than shipping the wrong vehicles. A misspelled filter shows up as zero results, not wrong ones. Model and City ignore case and accents. A Model needs its Make.

I pasted a search link and nothing happened / my filters below were ignored

That's expected when the link has a ?q= in it, it's reused as-is and every filter below is intentionally skipped (the run log says so). If the link has no ?q= (a single listing's own page, or a plain category link like /vehiculos/toyota/), it can't be reused as a filter, the run logs a warning and falls back to whatever filters you set below instead.

Is this an official Chileautos tool?

No. It is independent and not affiliated with Chileautos. It reads only data Chileautos publishes on its public pages, at a moderate pace. Use the data in line with Chileautos's terms and the laws that apply to you.
