## 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`).

### 🚀 Exhaustive mode

By default, Zillow limits search results to ~500-1000 per query. **Exhaustive mode** automatically runs the same search with different sort orders (newest, cheapest, most expensive, largest, etc.) and deduplicates the results. Each sort order surfaces different listings that the others miss.

- **Off:** 1 request → ~500-1000 listings (fast, cheap)
- **On:** 6 requests → ~2,000-3,000 unique listings (same area, same filters)

Your filters (price, beds, rent/sold) are always respected — exhaustive mode only varies the sort order to find more results within your criteria.

***

### 🌍 Supported listing types

- **For sale** (default) — active listings from agents and owners
- **For rent** — rental listings with monthly prices
- **Recently sold** — completed sales with sale prices

***

### 🔌 Automation & integrations

Connect to **Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, Airtable, BigQuery, Snowflake**, or any webhook. Schedule daily/weekly runs to monitor inventory, price changes, and new listings.

***

### ❓ FAQ

**How many listings can I get?** Default mode returns up to ~1,000 per area. Exhaustive mode finds 2,000-3,000+. For larger areas, split into multiple ZIP codes.

**Does it work for any US location?** Yes — any ZIP code, city, or Zillow search URL in the United States.

**Can I track changes over time?** Yes — schedule runs and the actor deduplicates across runs, so you only get new or updated listings.

**What export formats?** JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, and API access.
