## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. 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.

# README

## MercadoLibre Real Estate Scraper

Scrape real estate listings from **MercadoLibre's** inmuebles/property verticals: Argentina, Mexico, and other Latin American markets that use the same platform. Give it one or more search-result URLs and get structured data for every listing on those pages: price, address, seller.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `startUrls` | array | One or more MercadoLibre real-estate search URLs, e.g. `https://inmuebles.mercadolibre.com.ar/apartamentos/venta/` or `https://inmuebles.mercadolibre.com.mx/departamentos/venta/` |
| `maxItems` | integer | Max listings to return in total (default 200) |

Build any search URL on the MercadoLibre real-estate subdomain for your country/city/property type in your browser, then paste it into `startUrls`. Each URL is scraped as a single page (MercadoLibre's own offset-pagination path is blocked for automated access) — add several city or category URLs to cover more listings.

### Output

```json
{
    "title": "Complejo Premium En Canning (ezeiza)",
    "price": 215125,
    "currency": "USD",
    "availability": "InStock",
    "city": "Ezeiza",
    "region": "Bs.As. G.B.A. Sur",
    "country": "AR",
    "sellerName": "LJRAMOSBROKERS",
    "datePosted": "2026-07-30",
    "url": "https://departamento.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-1935580475-complejo-premium-en-canning-ezeiza-_JM"
}
```

### Common uses

- Real estate market research across Latin America
- Cross-country price comparison
- Lead generation for agencies and investors
- Feeding a price-tracking or market-alert pipeline

### Notes

Free-tier runs are capped at 10 listings for evaluation. Paid runs return the full `maxItems` you request.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

One or more MercadoLibre real-estate search URLs, e.g. https://inmuebles.mercadolibre.com.ar/apartamentos/venta/ or https://inmuebles.mercadolibre.com.mx/departamentos/venta/. Each URL is scraped as a single page (MercadoLibre blocks the offset-pagination path via robots.txt); add several city/category URLs to cover more ground.

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

Maximum number of listings to return in total across all start URLs.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://inmuebles.mercadolibre.com.ar/apartamentos/venta/"

## 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 = {
    "startUrls": [
        "https://inmuebles.mercadolibre.com.ar/apartamentos/venta/"
    ],
