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.

It searches by keyword, filters by category, location, and price range, and extracts all visible listing data. The scraper handles pagination automatically and uses Playwright for reliable browser-based rendering. Jofogas.hu (owned by Adevinta/Schibsted) serves over 2 million monthly visitors and is the go-to marketplace in Hungary for buying and selling used goods, similar to Craigslist in the US or Marktplaats in the Netherlands. All prices are in Hungarian Forints (HUF). **No login or cookies required.** **Popular use cases:** - **Market research** — Monitor pricing trends for used electronics, vehicles, furniture, and consumer goods across Hungary. - **Price comparison** — Track how much specific items (phones, laptops, cars) sell for on the secondhand market vs. retail stores. - **Lead generation** — Find sellers offering specific products or services in target Hungarian cities and regions. - **Academic research** — Study classifieds market dynamics, regional pricing differences, and consumer behavior in Hungary. - **Inventory sourcing** — Discover bulk lots, business liquidations, and wholesale opportunities posted by Hungarian sellers. - **Competitive intelligence** — Track competitor product listings, pricing strategies, and market positioning across Hungarian categories. ### What data does Jofogas Scraper extract? Each listing includes: - **itemTitle** — Title of the classified listing - **price** — Listed price in HUF (null for negotiable listings) - **currency** — Currency code (always HUF) - **category** — Listing category (e.g., Elektronika, Auto-Motor-Jarmu) - **location** — Seller's city or region in Hungary - **condition** — Item condition when available (new, used) - **sellerName** — Name of the seller - **sellerType** — Type of seller (private or shop) - **postedDate** — Date the listing was published - **imageUrl** — Primary listing image URL - **url** — Full listing URL on Jofogas.hu - **scrapedAt** — ISO 8601 timestamp of data extraction ### Input parameters | Field | Type | Default | Description | |-------|------|---------|-------------| | `searchQuery` | String | `"laptop"` | Keyword search in Hungarian | | `category` | Enum | `""` | Category filter (elektronika, auto-motor-jarmu, etc.) | | `location` | String | `""` | City filter (budapest, debrecen, szeged, etc.) | | `priceFrom` | Integer | — | Minimum price in HUF | | `priceTo` | Integer | — | Maximum price in HUF | | `maxResults` | Integer | `50` | Maximum listings to return (up to 5,000) | | `proxyConfiguration` | Object | HU Residential | Proxy settings for reliability | #### Tips - Use native Hungarian search terms for best results: "laptop", "telefon" (phone), "butor" (furniture), "auto" (car), "kerekpar" (bicycle), "lakas" (apartment). - Location filtering uses Hungarian city names: "budapest", "debrecen", "szeged", "miskolc", "pecs", "gyor". - Residential proxies with Hungarian IP (HU) are recommended for reliable scraping. - Each page returns ~20 listings.

Use Jofogas Scraper as a Hungarian classifieds API. Start runs, poll for results, and process data in your application. #### Python ```python from apify_client import ApifyClient client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN") run = client.actor("studio-amba/jofogas-scraper").call(run_input={ "searchQuery": "laptop", "location": "budapest", "maxResults": 50, }) for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items(): price = item.get("price", "N/A") print(f"{item['itemTitle']} - {price} HUF ({item.get('location', '')})") ``` #### JavaScript ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from "apify-client"; const client = new ApifyClient({ token: "YOUR_API_TOKEN" }); const run = await client.actor("studio-amba/jofogas-scraper").call({ searchQuery: "auto", location: "budapest", maxResults: 200, priceTo: 5000000, }); const { items } = await client .dataset(run.defaultDatasetId) .listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.log(`${item.itemTitle} - ${item.price} HUF (${item.location})`); }); ``` ### FAQ #### What is Jofogas.hu? Jofogas.hu is Hungary's largest general classifieds platform, owned by Adevinta (formerly Schibsted). It is the Hungarian equivalent of Craigslist, Marktplaats, or Leboncoin. Millions of Hungarians use it daily to buy and sell used goods across every category imaginable. #### What categories are available? Jofogas covers 14+ main categories: Electronics, Vehicles, Real Estate, Household & Furniture, Clothing, Sports & Leisure, Home & Garden, Animals, Services, Jobs, Kids, Hobby, Appliances, and Business. Each category has dozens of subcategories. #### What does "Megegyezes szerint" mean for price? "Megegyezes szerint" means "by agreement" or "negotiable" — the seller hasn't listed a fixed price. These listings return `null` for the price field. "Ingyen" means free (price = 0). #### Can I filter by location? Yes, use the `location` parameter with Hungarian city names. Major cities supported: Budapest, Debrecen, Szeged, Miskolc, Pecs, Gyor, Nyiregyhaza, Kecskemet, Szekesfehervar, and many more. Leave empty to search all of Hungary. #### Does this scraper handle anti-bot protection? Jofogas has moderate anti-bot measures. The scraper uses Playwright (real browser) with fingerprint randomization and Hungarian residential proxies to ensure reliable access. For large-volume runs, the built-in retry mechanism handles temporary blocks. ### Limitations - **Phone numbers** — Seller phone numbers are hidden behind a click-to-reveal button and are not extracted. - **Full descriptions** — Search result pages show truncated descriptions. For full text, individual listing pages would need to be visited. - **Expired listings** — Only currently active listings are returned. Jofogas removes expired ads. - **Rate limiting** — Very aggressive scraping (5,000+ listings) may trigger temporary blocks. Use moderate concurrency and residential proxies. - **Real estate and vehicles** — These categories have dedicated subdomains (ingatlan.jofogas.hu, auto.jofogas.hu) with different page structures. This scraper covers the main site categories. ### Other European classifieds scrapers Build a complete view of European secondhand markets: - **[Bazos Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/bazos-scraper)** — Czech Republic and Slovakia - **[2dehands Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/2dehands-scraper)** — Belgium and Netherlands - **[OLX Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/olx-scraper)** — Poland - **[Willhaben Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/willhaben-scraper)** — Austria - Check the [Apify Store](https://apify.com/store) for more European classifieds scrapers from Studio AMBA. ### Your feedback If you notice any data quality issues, missing fields, or broken runs, let us know through the Apify Console.
