## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### What does AutoScout24 Scraper do?

AutoScout24 Scraper extracts structured listing data from [autoscout24.com](https://autoscout24.com) — including contact details, full descriptions, prices, and location data. It supports location filters and controllable result limits, so you can run the same query consistently over time. The actor also offers detail enrichment (full descriptions and contact information) where the source provides them.

**New to Apify?** [Sign up free](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=1h3gvi) and use the included $5 monthly platform credit to test this actor.

### Key features

- **🌎 9-market coverage:** 9 markets supported on one codebase — Germany, Austria, Belgium, France, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Luxembourg and Switzerland. The first eight are the same cars listed on the national front-ends (autoscout24.de, autoscout24.at, autoscout24.be, autoscout24.fr, autoscout24.it, autoscout24.nl, autoscout24.es, autoscout24.lu), read through autoscout24.com — so every result URL there points to autoscout24.com. Switzerland is a separate AutoScout24 marketplace with its own ~163,000-car inventory and CHF prices; it is not reachable through the pan-European country filter, so those results come from autoscout24.ch and their URLs point there. Pick one or more countries per run with the `countries` input — Swiss and EU results merge into one dataset — or schedule parallel runs to compare pricing across regions.
- **🏷️ AutoScout24 price-rating labels:** every listing carries AutoScout24's own price classification (top-price / good-price / fair-price / somewhat-expensive) plus the numeric price, so you can rank deals using the same signal buyers see on the site — no separate evaluation step.
- **♻️ Incremental mode:** daily runs emit only listings that are new or whose price/condition changed since last run. Perfect for inventory-diff dashboards and competitive pricing alerts. Saves 80–95% on recurring monitoring.
- **🔔 Notifications:** telegram / Slack / Discord / WhatsApp / webhook alerts on each run. Combine with incremental to ping only when prices or inventory actually move.
- **📋 Detail enrichment:** two-stage scraping — list first, then enrich each listing with the full detail-page payload. One input toggle controls the depth.
- **💵 Structured pricing:** listing price parsed into a numeric `price` field plus filter inputs (`priceFrom` / `priceTo`) so you can target a budget band. Use `priceType` (where supported) to exclude leasing or wholesale listings.
- **📦 Compact mode:** light payload with core fields only — comparable rows across listings without HTML or metadata overhead. Perfect for pricing dashboards.
- **✂️ Description truncation:** cap description length with `descriptionMaxLength` to control LLM prompt cost and dataset size — set 0 for full descriptions, or any char-limit to trim.
- **📌 Change classification:** each record carries a `changeType` of NEW / UPDATED / UNCHANGED / REAPPEARED / EXPIRED. Default emits NEW + UPDATED + REAPPEARED; opt into the others with `emitUnchanged` / `emitExpired`.
- **📤 Export anywhere:** Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Apify Console, or stream live via the Apify API and integrations (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, n8n, …).
- **🔌 MCP connectors:** export your results into Notion via Apify's MCP connectors — a clean run-summary page, no glue code. Opt-in via the App connector field; deterministic field-mapping, no AI. Built on Apify's connector framework, so more destinations open up as their catalog grows.

### What data can you extract from autoscout24.com?

Each result includes Core listing fields (`listingId`, `title`, `url`, `portalUrl`, `make`, `model`, `modelGroup`, and `variant`, and more), detail fields when enrichment is enabled (`description`, `descriptionHtml`, and `descriptionMarkdown`), and contact information (`sellerContact` and `sellerPhone`). In standard mode, all fields are always present — unavailable data points are returned as `null`, never omitted. In compact mode, only core fields are returned.

Detail enrichment is on by default and adds richer fields such as full descriptions and contact information where the source provides them.

### Input

The main inputs are an optional location filter and a result limit. Additional filters and options are available in the input schema.

Key parameters:

- **`make`** — Car manufacturer (e.g. bmw, mercedes-benz, volkswagen). Use URL-style slug.
- **`model`** — Car model (e.g. 3-series, c-class, golf). Use URL-style slug. Requires make. For Switzerland use autoscout24.ch's variant-level model names instead (e.g. 320, c-200, model-3) — if a model is not recognised there, the run log names valid ones for that make.
- **`countries`** — Which markets to search. Multiple countries = multiple searches merged. Switzerland is a separate AutoScout24 marketplace (autoscout24.ch) with its own inventory and prices in CHF — it is searched alongside the others and merged into the same dataset.
- **`priceFrom`** — Minimum price in EUR.
- **`priceTo`** — Maximum price in EUR.
- **`yearFrom`** — First registration year from (e.g. 2018).
- **`yearTo`** — First registration year to (e.g. 2024).
- **`mileageTo`** — Maximum mileage in kilometers.
- **`fuelType`** — Filter by fuel type.
- **`transmission`** — Filter by transmission type.
- **`bodyType`** — Filter by body type. Switzerland maps these onto its own body vocabulary; Transporter has no Swiss car equivalent (it is a separate vehicle class there) and is ignored for CH.
- **`condition`** — Limit results by vehicle condition. `all` (default) includes both new and used listings. `new` returns only manufacturer-new vehicles. `used` returns pre-owned listings; in Switzerland it also includes demonstration, pre-registered and classic cars.
- ...and 30 more parameters

### Input examples

**All BMW 3 Series in Germany** — Pick a make and model, then one or more country codes. This is the primary way to target listings.

→ One record per listing with price, mileage, year, fuel, transmission, seller, location and (with includeDetails) the full spec sheet and description.

```json
{
  "make": "BMW",
  "model": "3er",
  "countries": [
    "DE"
  ],
  "maxResults": 50,
  "includeDetails": true
}
```

**Filtered: recent low-mileage diesels under €25k** — Narrow the results with filters — price, year, mileage, fuel and body type.

→ Only listings matching every filter.

```json
{
  "make": "Audi",
  "model": "A4",
  "countries": [
    "DE",
    "AT"
  ],
  "priceTo": 25000,
  "yearFrom": 2020,
  "mileageTo": 60000,
  "fuelType": "diesel",
  "maxResults": 100
}
```

**Incremental: only new/changed listings each run** — Set incrementalMode with a stable stateKey to emit only listings that are new or changed since the previous run.

→ A delta of NEW and UPDATED listings, so a scheduled run does not re-deliver unchanged ones.

```json
{
  "make": "Volkswagen",
  "model": "Golf",
  "countries": [
    "DE"
  ],
  "incrementalMode": true,
  "stateKey": "vw-golf-de",
  "maxResults": 200
}
```

**Compact output** — Set compact to return a slimmer record with just the core fields.

→ One compact record per listing (core fields only).

```json
{
  "make": "Porsche",
  "countries": [
    "DE"
  ],
  "compact": true,
  "maxResults": 30
}
```

### Output

Each run produces a dataset of structured listing records. Results can be downloaded as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Dataset tab in Apify Console.

### Incremental fields

When incremental mode is on, each record also carries:

- `changeType` — one of `NEW`, `UPDATED`, `UNCHANGED`, `REAPPEARED`, `EXPIRED`. Default output covers `NEW` / `UPDATED` / `REAPPEARED`; set `emitUnchanged: true` or `emitExpired: true` to opt into the others.
- `isRepost`, `repostOfId`, `repostDetectedAt` — populated when a new listing matches the tracked content of a previously expired one. Set `skipReposts: true` to drop detected reposts from the output.

### How to scrape autoscout24.com

1. Go to [AutoScout24 Scraper](https://apify.com/blackfalcondata/autoscout24-scraper?fpr=1h3gvi) in Apify Console.
2. Configure the input and optional location filter.
3. Set `maxResults` to control how many results you need.
4. Keep `includeDetails` on (the default) for full descriptions, contact info, equipment and emissions data, or turn it off for faster, cheaper runs.
5. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish.
6. Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

### Use cases

- Extract listing data from autoscout24.com for market research and competitive analysis.
- Track pricing trends across regions and categories over time.
- Monitor new and changed vehicles on scheduled runs without processing the full dataset every time.
- Use structured location data for regional analysis, mapping, and geo-targeting.
- Feed structured data into AI agents, MCP tools, and automated pipelines using compact mode.
- Export clean, structured data to dashboards, spreadsheets, or data warehouses.
- Benchmark seller / dealer reputation using rating fields.

### How much does it cost to scrape autoscout24.com?

AutoScout24 Scraper uses [pay-per-event](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/paid-actors/pay-per-event) pricing. You pay a small fee when the run starts and then for each result that is actually produced.

- **Run start:** $0.005 per run
- **Per result (primary event):** $0.00049

You are billed only for the events your run actually triggers. Prices below are the Free plan tier.

| Event | Price (Free tier) | Charged when |
|---|---|---|
| Actor Start | $0.005 (one-time) | Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). |
| Result (primary) | $0.00049 | Single result in the default dataset. |
| Listing checked | $0.00002 | Charged once per unique listing compared against your previous run in incremental mode. Runs without incremental mode never charge this event. |

Example costs (primary event only — other events above add cost when they fire):

- 10 results: **$0.0099**
- 25 results: **$0.017**
- 100 results: **$0.054**
- 200 results: **$0.1**
- 500 results: **$0.25**

#### Example: recurring monitoring savings

These examples compare full re-scrapes with incremental runs at different churn rates. Churn is the share of vehicles that are new or whose tracked content changed since the previous run. Actual churn depends on your query breadth, source activity, and polling frequency — the scenarios below are examples, not predictions.

Example setup: 250 vehicles per run, daily polling (30 runs/month). Costs scale linearly with the number of vehicles.

Numbers below are for the primary **Result** event. Other events (**Listing checked**) are billed separately when they fire.

| Churn rate | Full re-scrape run cost | Incremental run cost | Savings vs full re-scrape | Monthly cost after baseline |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| 5% — stable niche query | $0.13 | $0.01 | $0.12 (91%) | $0.33 |
| 15% — moderate broad query | $0.13 | $0.02 | $0.10 (82%) | $0.70 |
| 30% — high-volume aggregator | $0.13 | $0.04 | $0.09 (67%) | $1.25 |

Full re-scrape monthly cost at the same cadence: $3.83. First month with incremental costs $0.45 / $0.81 / $1.34 for the 5% / 15% / 30% scenarios because the first run builds baseline state at full cost before incremental savings apply.

Platform usage is included in the per-result fee shown above.

### FAQ

#### How many results can I get from autoscout24.com?

The number of results depends on the search query and available vehicles on autoscout24.com. Use the `maxResults` parameter to control how many results are returned per run.

#### Does AutoScout24 Scraper support recurring monitoring?

Yes. Enable incremental mode to only receive new or changed vehicles on subsequent runs. This is ideal for scheduled monitoring where you want to track changes over time without re-processing the full dataset.

#### Can I integrate AutoScout24 Scraper with other apps?

Yes. AutoScout24 Scraper works with Apify's [integrations](https://apify.com/integrations?fpr=1h3gvi) to connect with tools like Zapier, Make, Google Sheets, Slack, and more. You can also use webhooks to trigger actions when a run completes.

#### Can I use AutoScout24 Scraper with the Apify API?

Yes. You can start runs, manage inputs, and retrieve results programmatically through the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2). Client libraries are available for JavaScript, Python, and other languages.

#### Can I use AutoScout24 Scraper through an MCP Server?

Yes. Apify provides an [MCP Server](https://apify.com/apify/actors-mcp-server?fpr=1h3gvi) that lets AI assistants and agents call this actor directly. Use compact mode, `descriptionMaxLength`, a single `descriptionFormat`, and `excludeEmptyFields` to keep payloads manageable for LLM context windows.

#### Is it legal to scrape autoscout24.com?

This actor extracts publicly available data from autoscout24.com. Web scraping of public information is generally considered legal, but you should always review the target site's terms of service and ensure your use case complies with applicable laws and regulations, including GDPR where relevant.

#### Is there an AutoScout24 API?

AutoScout24 does not offer an official API for its car listings. This actor is the practical alternative: it returns European car market data as structured JSON — make, model, price, mileage, fuel type, transmission, full vehicle specs and verified dealer contacts — ready to load into a database, dashboard or model without any HTML parsing on your side.

#### Can I pull AutoScout24 data into Python?

Yes. Install the Apify client (`pip install apify-client`), start a run with your search parameters, and read the dataset straight into a `DataFrame`. The same works from Node.js, or from any language via plain HTTP — see the Apify API question above. Vehicle data extraction runs on Apify's servers, so nothing has to run locally.

#### What can I use European car market data for?

Common uses: pricing and depreciation analysis across the eight markets, spotting under-priced inventory with AutoScout24's own price-rating labels, dealer lead generation from verified contact details, tracking how long specific models stay listed, and feeding structured vehicle data into AI agents or valuation models.

#### What happens if a run stops before it finishes?

If you use incremental mode with a state key, results are saved as they are delivered. Start the run again with the same settings and it continues after the listings you already have: listings already delivered are not delivered or charged again unless they have changed. If the platform restarts a run on its own, it continues the same way with nothing to do on your side. A run started right after another one was stopped may report that the state key is still in use and name roughly how many minutes to wait; start it again after that. Without incremental mode, every run starts from the beginning.

Limit results by vehicle condition. `all` (default) includes both new and used listings. `new` returns only manufacturer-new vehicles. `used` returns pre-owned listings; in Switzerland it also includes demonstration, pre-registered and classic cars.

## `searchUrls` (type: `array`):

Paste AutoScout24 search URLs directly. Overrides all filters above. Also accepts individual listing URLs.

## `location` (type: `string`):

Native AutoScout24 location search (for example Berlin or 10115). When Search Radius is set, results are limited to that distance around this place. For Switzerland, use a Swiss town or a 4-digit postcode (for example Zürich or 8001).

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of listings to deliver. 0 = no limit: the whole search. For very large collections such as a whole country, use 0 together with Incremental Mode and Full Details for New Cars Only — a run that stops early can then be started again and skips the listings it already delivered.

## `includeDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch full listing details (description, equipment, GPS, seller ratings). Slower but more data.

## `detailsOnlyForNew` (type: `boolean`):

Incremental mode only; not applied to Switzerland. Full details are fetched the first time a car appears. When a car you already have changes (price, mileage), it arrives with search-page data instead of a fresh detail page. Makes repeat runs faster.

## `descriptionMaxLength` (type: `integer`):

Truncate description to N characters. 0 = no truncation.

## `compact` (type: `boolean`):

Core fields only (for AI-agent/MCP workflows).

## `incrementalMode` (type: `boolean`):

Track changes across runs. Detects NEW, UPDATED, and EXPIRED listings.

## `stateKey` (type: `string`):

Optional stable identifier for the tracked search universe. Leave empty to auto-derive a stable identifier from your search inputs, so different keyword/location/filter combinations get isolated state automatically. To start over from the beginning, enter a new State Key: the next run treats every listing as new. Enter the previous key again to continue where it left off.

## `skipReposts` (type: `boolean`):

Exclude listings detected as reposts of previously seen listings.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Leave empty — the actor picks its own connection for every search. Only if you must route requests through your own proxies, enter them as {"proxyUrls": \["http://user:pass@host:port"]}. Other proxy settings are ignored.

## `telegramToken` (type: `string`):

Telegram bot token (from @BotFather). Required for Telegram notifications.

## `telegramChatId` (type: `string`):

Telegram chat or channel ID (e.g. "-100123456789"). Required when telegramToken is set.

## `discordWebhookUrl` (type: `string`):

Discord incoming webhook URL. Server Settings → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook.

## `slackWebhookUrl` (type: `string`):

Slack incoming webhook URL. api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks.

## `notificationLimit` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of listings included in each notification message (1–20).

## `notifyOnlyChanges` (type: `boolean`):

When Incremental Mode is on, only send notifications for NEW and UPDATED listings. Has no effect outside incremental mode.

## `whatsappAccessToken` (type: `string`):

WhatsApp Cloud API permanent access token (System User token from Meta Business). Recipient must have messaged the business number within the last 24h (service-conversation window — free since Nov 2024).

## `whatsappPhoneNumberId` (type: `string`):

Your WhatsApp Business phone-number ID (numeric, from Meta dashboard). Required when whatsappAccessToken is set.

## `whatsappTo` (type: `string`):

Recipient phone in E.164 format without + (e.g. "436641234567"). Recipient must have messaged your business number within last 24h.

## `webhookUrl` (type: `string`):

Receives a JSON POST with {metadata, items} after each run. Universal escape hatch for n8n / Make / Zapier / custom backends.

## `webhookHeaders` (type: `object`):

Optional JSON object of custom headers (e.g. {"Authorization":"Bearer ..."}).

## `descriptionFormat` (type: `string`):

Pick a single description representation. `all` keeps every variant; `text` / `html` / `markdown` drop the others.

## `excludeEmptyFields` (type: `boolean`):

Drop null, empty-string, and empty-array fields from each record before push. Smaller payloads for AI agents and dashboards.

## `appConnector` (type: `string`):

Optional. Pick a connected app under Settings → API & Integrations to receive your results. Notion is supported today (a run-summary page); other MCP connectors are best-effort as Apify expands its catalog.

## `mcpIssueTeam` (type: `string`):

Only when the connected app is an issue tracker: the team (name or ID) the summary issue is created under, if that app requires one.

## `emitUnchanged` (type: `boolean`):

When incremental mode is on, also emit listings whose content has not changed since the last run.

## `emitExpired` (type: `boolean`):

When incremental mode is on, also emit listings that were seen before but are no longer found.

## `lat` (type: `number`):

GPS latitude of a search centre. Pair with lon and radiusKm to keep only listings within range. Requires Include Full Details — coordinates are only available on the detail page.

## `lon` (type: `number`):

GPS longitude. Pair with lat.

## `radiusKm` (type: `integer`):

Search radius in kilometres. With City or Postal Code it is applied natively by AutoScout24; with lat/lon it also applies the precise detail-coordinate refinement. Listings without detail coordinates are kept — Swiss listings never carry coordinates, so for CH use City or Postal Code with this radius.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## 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 = {
    "countries": [
        "DE"
    ],
    "condition": "all",
    "maxResults": 100,
    "descriptionFormat": "all",
    "excludeEmptyFields": false
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("blackfalcondata/autoscout24-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {
    "countries": ["DE"],
    "condition": "all",
    "maxResults": 100,
    "descriptionFormat": "all",
    "excludeEmptyFields": False,
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("blackfalcondata/autoscout24-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "countries": [
    "DE"
  ],
  "condition": "all",
  "maxResults": 100,
  "descriptionFormat": "all",
  "excludeEmptyFields": false
}' |
apify call blackfalcondata/autoscout24-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,blackfalcondata/autoscout24-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
