## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## 99acres Projects Search Scraper

Extract new real estate project listings from 99acres.com project search pages. Captures project names, developer info, configurations (2BHK/3BHK/etc.), pricing, RERA status, and more.

### Features

- **Project search extraction** — scrape all projects from any 99acres project search URL
- **Automatic pagination** — continues to next pages until `maxItems` is reached
- **Deep scraping mode** — opens each project's detail page for full description, amenities, RERA number, builder contact, images
- **Anti-bot bypass** — residential proxy + browser fingerprinting

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `searchUrls` | string[] | required | 99acres project search URLs (search/project/*) |
| `maxItems` | integer | 20 | Maximum projects to scrape (1–500) |
| `enableDeepScraping` | boolean | false | Open detail pages for description, RERA, amenities |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | RESIDENTIAL | Apify proxy settings |

#### Example Input
```json
{
  "searchUrls": ["https://www.99acres.com/search/project/buy/chennai?city=36&res_com=R"],
  "maxItems": 20,
  "enableDeepScraping": false
}
````

### Output Fields

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `projectId` | 99acres project ID (e.g. `r437330`) |
| `idType` | ID type: `npxid` (new project), `npspid` (unit), `spid` (resale) |
| `projectUrl` | Direct URL to the project listing |
| `projectName` | Project name (e.g. "Casagrand Osaka") |
| `developer` | Builder/developer name |
| `configurations` | BHK options (e.g. `["2 BHK", "3 BHK"]`) |
| `location` | Locality name |
| `price.displayPrice` | Formatted price range |
| `price.min` / `price.max` | Price in INR |
| `area.min` / `area.max` | Area in sq ft |
| `statusInfo` | Completion/launch status |
| `verification.isReraRegistered` | RERA mentioned |
| `verification.reraNumber` | RERA registration ID (deep scraping) |
| `contact.name` | Developer contact (deep scraping) |
| `amenities` | Amenity list (deep scraping) |
| `description` | Full project description (deep scraping) |
| `images` | Project photo URLs (deep scraping) |

### URL Patterns Supported

- `search/project/buy/CITY` — Buy project listings
- Any 99acres project search URL with filters

### Notes

- Project search URLs: use `/search/project/buy/` (not `/search/property/`)
- Residential proxy strongly recommended
- Speed: ~15 projects/min (deep scraping: ~4–5/min)

# Actor input Schema

## `searchUrls` (type: `array`):

Add one or more 99acres project search URLs (e.g. https://www.99acres.com/search/project/buy/pune).

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

Maximum number of projects to scrape.

## `enableDeepScraping` (type: `boolean`):

Open each project detail page to extract full description, all configurations, RERA number, developer contact, and images.

## `headless` (type: `boolean`):

Run browser in headless mode (no visible UI). Set to false for debugging.

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

Optionally, use Apify Proxy or custom HTTP proxy to avoid IP address-based blocking.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searchUrls": [
    "https://www.99acres.com/search/project/buy/chennai?city=36&preference=S&area_unit=1&res_com=R"

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "searchUrls": [
        "https://www.99acres.com/search/project/buy/chennai?city=36&preference=S&area_unit=1&res_com=R"
    ],
    "maxItems": 20,
    "enableDeepScraping": false,
    "headless": true
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("codingfrontend/99acres-projects-search-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
