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 ## 🇸🇪 Blocket.se Scraper — Sweden's Largest Classifieds Platform Extract listings from **[Blocket.se](https://www.blocket.se)** — Sweden's #1 classified ads platform, founded in 1996 and used by millions of Swedes every month. Scrape **marketplace goods and vehicles** (cars, motorcycles, boats) across all Swedish regions — with prices, images, seller details, location coordinates and vehicle-specific attributes. This scraper calls Blocket's official search API directly (`recommerce` for marketplace goods, `mobility` for vehicles) for fast, structured, complete data — no browser, no login. --- ### 🔍 What can you scrape?

All titles and attribute values appear in Swedish exactly as shown on blocket.se. **What is "mil" in mileage?** Swedish vehicles use "mil" (Swedish mile = 10 km) for odometer readings. So "8 500 mil" = 85,000 km. **Can I filter by a specific car make or model?** Yes — put the make/model in `searchQuery` (e.g. `"Volvo V70"`) and set `category` to `car`. **Is scraping Blocket.se legal?** This scraper collects publicly available listing data visible to any website visitor without login. Always use scraped data responsibly and in compliance with applicable laws in your jurisdiction. #### Is this a Blocket.se API alternative? Yes. Blocket has no public developer API, so this actor works as an unofficial Blocket.se API alternative — it queries Blocket's own search endpoints and returns structured JSON for marketplace goods and vehicles. #### How do I export Blocket.se data to CSV or JSON? Run the actor, then download the dataset from Apify in CSV, JSON, or Excel. Every listing — prices, images, seller details and vehicle attributes — is exported in one structured table. #### Can I scrape Blocket.se without an API or login? Yes. The scraper calls Blocket's public search API directly, so you get a complete Blocket.se data export with no login, no cookies and no browser session required. ### 📝 Changelog #### 2026-06-15 - Reliability pass: re-verified end-to-end on live data with real-world inputs.
