## 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.

## Kleinanzeigen Scraper

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

[![Apify Actor](https://img.shields.io/badge/Apify-Actor-blue?style=for-the-badge&logo=apify)](https://apify.com/daddyapi/kleinanzeigen-scraper)
[![Node.js](https://img.shields.io/badge/Node.js-v22-green?style=for-the-badge&logo=node.js)](https://nodejs.org/)

### 🚀 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"
        ]
    }
}
```
