## 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.

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
| `url` | String | *(required)* | Comparis.ch search URL with filters pre-applied. |
| `maxPages` | Integer | `1` | Number of result pages to scrape (1–1000). Each page typically contains 10 listings. |
| `detailedInfo` | Boolean | `false` | Visit each listing's detail page for full property data (slower, more data). |

##### Getting your search URL

1. Go to [comparis.ch property marketplace](https://en.comparis.ch/immobilien)
2. Apply your filters (location, rent/buy, price, rooms …)
3. Copy the full URL from your browser address bar (en/de/fr/it subdomains all work)
4. Paste it as the `url` input

#### **Is it legal to scrape comparis.ch data?**

It is legal to scrape publicly available data such as property prices, addresses, and listing details. However, you should be aware that results may contain personal information (agent names, contact details).

Personal data is protected by the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and other regulations. You should not scrape personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so. If you're unsure whether your reason is legitimate, please consult your lawyers. You can also read Apify's blog post on the legality of web scraping.

# Actor input Schema

## `url` (type: `string`):

A comparis.ch property marketplace search URL with your filters already applied in the browser (e.g. https://en.comparis.ch/immobilien/marktplatz/zuerich/mieten). German/French/Italian URLs work too.

## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

How many search result pages to scrape (10 listings each). Pages are pre-built upfront using the 0-based ?page= query parameter.

## `detailedInfo` (type: `boolean`):

Visit each listing's detail page to extract full specs, features, GPS coordinates, vendor contact, all images and document links. Slower and uses more requests.

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

Proxy settings. Defaults to Apify Proxy (auto). Switch to a RESIDENTIAL group if you see 403 errors.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "url": "https://en.comparis.ch/immobilien/marktplatz/zuerich/mieten",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,ocrad/comparis-ch-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).
