They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. 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. - **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use). - **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`. - **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`. - **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`. - **Any other language** — 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 ### 🏡 What is Propertylink Estatesgazette Real Estate Properties Scraper?

You can leave other fields as they are to be sensible defaults. #### Input example ```json { "listUrls": [ { "url": "https://propertylink.estatesgazette.com/commercial-property-for-rent/sw2" } ], "propertyUrls": [ { "url": "https://propertylink.estatesgazette.com/property-details/6925105-office-space-to-let-on-lyham-road-brixton-london-sw2" } ], "fullScrape": true, "monitoringMode": false, "enableDelistingTracker" : false, "addEmptyTrackerRecord" : false } ``` You can either provide `listUrls` to search properties from or provide `propertyUrls` directly to crawl. Understading monitoring mode : - `fullScrape` : This option is by default turned on. When enabled it always force actor to scrape complete listing from all pagination pages regardless of monitoring is enabled or not. - `monitoringMode` : This option when turned on will only scrape newly added property listings compared to previously scraped properties by this actor. It's important to turn off fullScrape setting if you are using this mode. If you keep fullScrape on, it will re-scrape complete listing again. - `enableDelistingTracker` : This option when turned on will start tracking date against each property under Apify Key Value store. This KV store can be queried later to find out which properties are delisted. - `addEmptyTrackerRecord` : This option when turned on will add empty record having only id of property to Apify dataset. This helps you identify whether property is still listed compared to your own database in incremental mode. ### ⬆️ Output The scraped data is stored in the dataset of each run. The data can be viewed or downloaded in many popular formats, such as *JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, and HTML*. #### Output example The result for scraping a single property like this: ```json { "title": "123 Victoria Street, SW1E - Fully Serviced Managed Office", "id": "6927980", "countryCode": "GB", "agentName": "Julie Kold", "agentPhone": "0808 304 8575", "agentCompany": "Office Freedom Central London", "agentCompanyLogo": "https://propertylink.estatesgazette.com/find-a-service/results?hq_id=6909943&show_properties=1", "coordinates": { "latitude": "51.4968039", "longitude": "-0.1384018" }, "images": [ "https://propertylinkassets.estatesgazette.com/images/20230731/1-115555880lenormous-1900x0.jpg", "https://propertylinkassets.estatesgazette.com/images/20230731/1-115555881lenormous-1900x0.jpg", "https://propertylinkassets.estatesgazette.com/images/20230731/1-115555882lenormous-1900x0.jpg", "https://propertylinkassets.estatesgazette.com/images/20230731/1-115555883lenormous-1900x0.jpg", "https://propertylinkassets.estatesgazette.com/images/20230731/1-115555884lenormous-1900x0.jpg", "https://propertylinkassets.estatesgazette.com/images/20230731/1-115555885lenormous-1900x0.jpg", "https://propertylinkassets.estatesgazette.com/images/20230731/1-115555886lenormous-1900x0.jpg", "https://propertylinkassets.estatesgazette.com/images/20230731/1-115555887lenormous-1900x0.jpg" ], "description": "Reference: 28501Fully inclusive serviced office.

Good News is that even if multiple list urls contains overlapping results, they will get deduplicated within same run data. ### 🤝 Related Actors - [Rightmove Scraper](https://apify.com/dhrumil/rightmove-scraper?fpr=z2di7): Scrape sale/rent listings from rightmove.co.uk. - [Zoopla Scraper](https://apify.com/dhrumil/zoopla-scraper?fpr=z2di7): Scrape property sale/rent listings, prices, and details from Zoopla. - [OnTheMarket Scraper](https://apify.com/dhrumil/onthemarket-scraper?fpr=z2di7) : Scrape property sale/rent listings, prices, and details from OnTheMarket. - [Rightmove Full Address & House Number Finder](https://apify.com/dhrumil/rightmove-full-address-house-number-finder?fpr=z2di7): Find full addresses and house numbers for Rightmove listings. - [Rightmove Land Registry Full Address & House Number Finder](https://apify.com/dhrumil/rightmove-landregistry-full-address-house-number-finder?fpr=z2di7): Get full address and house number using Land Registry data for Rightmove properties. - [Rightmove EPC Full Address Finder](https://apify.com/dhrumil/rightmove-epc-full-address-finder?fpr=z2di7): Find EPC and full address details for Rightmove listings. - [Rightmove Commercial Scraper](https://apify.com/dhrumil/rightmove-commercial-scraper?fpr=z2di7): Scrape commercial property listings from Rightmove. - [Rightmove Sold House Properties Scraper](https://apify.com/dhrumil/rightmove-sold-house-properties-scraper?fpr=z2di7): Scrape sold house price data from Rightmove. - [Rightmove Agents Scraper](https://apify.com/dhrumil/rightmove-agents-scraper?fpr=z2di7): Extract agent and agency details from Rightmove. - [Zoopla Sold Properties Scraper](https://apify.com/dhrumil/zoopla-sold-properties-scraper?fpr=z2di7): Scrape sold property data from Zoopla. - [Zoopla Commercial Properties Scraper](https://apify.com/dhrumil/zoopla-commercial-properties-scraper?fpr=z2di7): Scrape commercial property listings from Zoopla. ### 🔎 Identifying delisted properties This actor provides you monitoring mode configuration using which you can get only incremental updates about newly added properties. In case, you also want to identify which properties are delisted from platform, you can use any of the following techniques with the help of this actor. 1. Running Always in full scraper mode : Run this actor always in full scrape mode and cross check the new incoming batch of data with your existing database. If any property that exists in yoru database but not in newly scraped data batch, that means it's not listed anymore 2. Use Key Value Store generated by scraper : If your are monitoring very large batch of data and you don't want to scrape everything all the time, this method involves bit of technicality but achieves the goal efectively. Apify has storage feature called [Key-value store](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2/#/reference/key-value-stores/key-collection/get-list-of-keys). When you run this scrape, this scraper stores every single property in key value store along with timestamp in `propertylink-properties` store. Inside this store, key is property id itself and value is timestamp like this ``` { lastSeen : '2023-11-02T05:59:25.763Z'} ``` Whenever you run this scraper, it will update the timestamp against particular id if it finds property on the platform. e.g. if we have 2 proprties with id `prop1` and `prop2` and we scraped them both on November 1, key value storage would look like this : ``` prop1 -> { lastSeen : '2023-11-01T05:59:25.763Z'} prop2 -> { lastSeen : '2023-11-01T05:59:25.763Z'} ``` Now if you run this scraper again on December 1 and prop1 is not on the platform anymore but prop2 is still there, key value storage would change like this : ``` prop1 -> { lastSeen : '2023-11-01T05:59:25.763Z'} prop2 -> { lastSeen : '2023-12-01T05:59:25.763Z'} ``` That means if any property has `lastSeen` less than latest batch you loaded, that property is delisted now. You can directly iterate through whole Key value storage using Apify key value storage API to identify this. Please refer to [this](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2/#/reference/key-value-stores/key-collection/get-list-of-keys) API documentation to do the same. Please remember store name generated by this scrape will be `propertylink-properties`. Alternatively, you can iterate through your existing database active properties and use [this](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2/#/reference/key-value-stores/record/get-record) API to identify listing status. For this approach to work, it's important that you enable this feature via `enableDelistingTracker` (Enable Delisting tracker) input. ### 🙋‍♀️ For custom solutions In case you need some custom solution, you can contact me : Or learn more about me on github : # Actor input Schema ## `listUrls` (type: `array`): Any propertylink sale or rent property listing url which has list of properties ## `propertyUrls` (type: `array`): Any propertylink sale or rent property url to scrape ## `fullScrape` (type: `boolean`): If checked, it will perform full scrape including all pagination pages. You might want to tunr this off in case you are running in monitoring mode. ## `monitoringMode` (type: `boolean`): If checked, it will only scrape newly listed properties compared to what has been scraped in previous runs. Please turn off full scrape setting above in case you are tunring this on. ## `enableDelistingTracker` (type: `boolean`): If checked, it will track every single property with date so that you can find out which property is delisted. ( Enabling this has impact on billing ) ## `addEmptyTrackerRecord` (type: `boolean`): If checked, it will add tracker ID record in incremental mode so that you can identify delisted properties if you have custom loader ## `email` (type: `string`): Email address to send notifications or reports to. ## `proxy` (type: `object`): Select proxies to be used by your crawler. ## Actor input object example ```json { "listUrls": [ { "url": "https://propertylink.estatesgazette.com/commercial-property-for-rent/sw2" } ], "propertyUrls": [], "fullScrape": true, "monitoringMode": false, "enableDelistingTracker": false, "addEmptyTrackerRecord": false, "email": "", "proxy": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
