Tips for Best Results

• Use complete, public view.com.au search URLs for maximum control over the search area and filters.
• Start with a smaller results_wanted value (20-50) for initial testing before scaling to larger runs.
• Each page returns approximately 25 listings. Set max_pages based on your target volume.
• For listings beyond 200 results in a single search, the Actor automatically splits the search into price range segments to continue past the site limit.
• Australian residential proxies provide the most reliable access. If you encounter blocks, enable Apify Proxy with the RESIDENTIAL group.
• Some fields may be empty when the source listing does not publish that information. Prices, addresses, and room counts are available for most listings.
• Check the dataset preview before scheduling repeat runs to confirm the output matches your needs.

Integrations

• Google Sheets - Export property data to spreadsheets for market analysis and reporting.
• Webhooks - Trigger downstream workflows after each run completes.
• Make or Zapier - Connect property data to no-code automations and CRM pipelines.
• API - Access datasets programmatically from your own applications.
• CSV, Excel, JSON, XML - Download results in multiple formats from Apify Console.

Frequently Asked Questions

What property types can I collect?

You can collect for-sale, for-rent, and sold property listings from view.com.au. Use the appropriate search URL as the startUrl to select the listing type.

How many listings can I collect in one run?

You can collect all available listings matching your search. The practical limit depends on the search area and total matching properties. For large searches, the Actor splits the work into price segments to continue beyond the standard 200-result cap.

What if some data fields are missing?

Fields not available on the source listing are omitted from the output. Price ranges, addresses, room counts, and agent details are available for most listings.

Can I use this Actor without a proxy?

The Actor can run without a proxy, but view.com.au uses CDN protection. Using Apify Proxy with Australian residential IPs provides the most reliable access, especially for larger runs.

Can I export the data to CSV or Excel?

Yes. Apify datasets can be downloaded in CSV, Excel, JSON, XML, HTML, and other formats from Apify Console or via the API.

Can I run this Actor on a schedule?

Yes. You can schedule the Actor in Apify Console to refresh data hourly, daily, weekly, or at another interval.
