## 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

## 🛒 OLX Portugal Scraper

Want to find deals on [OLX.pt](https://www.olx.pt/) or analyze the Portuguese classifieds market? This scraper makes it super easy!

Paste an **`input_url`** from your browser once you've already filtered on OLX.pt, **or** use **structured filters** (category, subcategory, location, price, tipologia, condition, seller type) — structured filters work better for AI agents. When `input_url` is set it overrides the filters. Either way, you get up to **1000 listings** from any OLX Portugal category — imóveis, cars, tech, fashion, and more — with pricing, location, and seller details as CSV or JSON.

### ✨ Why you'll love this scraper

- 🔗 **Input URL or Filters:** Paste an OLX.pt search URL (`input_url`) if you already filtered in the browser, or use structured filters (better for AI agents). `input_url` always wins when set.
- 🎯 **Structured Filters:** Search by category, subcategory, location, query, price, tipologia, condition, and seller type — no URL crafting.
- 🏠 **Imóveis Ready:** Tipologia (T0–T6+) and location filters work great for houses and apartments.
- ⚙️ **Rich Listings:** Price, location, seller signals, photos, and promotion flags.
- ⏱️ **Sorting Options:** Newest, recommended, cheapest, or most expensive — same labels as on olx.pt.
- 🇵🇹 **Built for Portugal:** Covers all major OLX.pt categories nationwide.

### 📦 What's inside the data?

For every single listing, you will get:

- **Core Details:** `id`, `title`, `url`, `created_time`, `last_refresh_time`, `description`
- **Media:** `img_url` (first image) and `photos` (full list of high-res image links)
- **Pricing:** `price`, `currency`, `negotiable`
- **Location:** `city`, `district`, `region`
- **Seller Details:** `business`, `contact_name`, `contact_phone`, `contact_chat`, `shop_subdomain`
- **Item Specifics:** `category`, `state` (condition), and a clean `params` list
- **Visibility:** `highlighted`, `top_ad`, `urgent`, and other promotion flags

### 🛠️ Sort options

Use the `sort_by` parameter (Portuguese labels as on olx.pt):

- **Mais recente** – Newest listings first
- **Anúncios recomendados** – Recommended / featured ordering
- **Mais barato** – Cheapest first
- **Mais caro** – Most expensive first

### 🚀 Quick start

**Option A — Input URL**

1. Open [OLX.pt](https://www.olx.pt/), apply filters in the browser, copy the results URL.
2. Paste it into `input_url`.
3. Set `max_items` and click **Start**.

**Option B — Structured filters (better for AI agents)**

1. Leave `input_url` empty.
2. Pick a **category** (default: `imoveis`), optional subcategory, location, query, price, tipologia, condition, or seller type.
3. Choose `sort_by` and `max_items` (up to 1000).
4. Click **Start** and export CSV, Excel, or JSON when done.

#### Notes on filters

- `input_url` always wins over filters when provided.
- With no filters and no URL, the Actor starts in **Imóveis**.

- Each run returns at most **`max_items`** listings (`1`–`1000`).

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config.
