## 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

## Cian.ru Scraper

Scrape **Cian.ru**, Russia's leading real-estate marketplace. Search apartments, houses, land and commercial units for sale or rent, look up full listing details, fetch similar listings, agent profiles and their offers, residential-complex (ЖК) details, and resolve Russian locations to Cian region ids.

### What it does

- **🔎 Search Listings** — five auto-detected modes from one input box:

  - city / district / metro / street name (e.g. `Москва`, `Тверская, Москва`)
  - Cian region id (pure digits — resolve via the Autocomplete section)
  - coordinates `lat,lng` or `lat,lng,radius`
  - polygon `lon lat,lon lat,...`
  - any `cian.ru` search or offer URL

  Deal type, property type, rooms, price / area / floor / year filters, building material, sort order and pagination all apply.
- **🏠 Property Details** — auto-detects each input as an offer id (digits) or `cian.ru` URL; returns the full record (price, area, rooms, floor, building, photos, metro/geo, agent/owner contacts).
- **🔗 Similar Listings** — comparable offers for any Cian offer id.
- **👤 Agents** — for each agent/agency id: one profile row plus one row per active listing.
- **🏗️ New Buildings (ЖК)** — residential-complex details (name, status, completion year, address) by id.
- **🔍 Autocomplete** — resolve Russian location names to Cian region ids you can feed straight back into Search.

### Output

- **One flat dataset row per listing / agent / complex / suggestion** — sortable, filterable, CSV-exportable.
- Columns: `Mode`, `Deal Type`, `Offer Type`, `Property ID`, `Title`, `Agent / Owner`, `Address`, `Metro`, `Price`, `Currency`, `Rooms`, `Total Area m²`, `Floor`, `Year Built`, `Latitude`, `Longitude`, `Cover Photo`, `Listing URL`.
- Full upstream JSON kept in the `Raw` column for power users.

### Inputs

- Each section is independent — fill only the ones you need.
- Multiple inputs per section: one per line.
- The search filters apply to every Search query.

### Pricing

- Pay per result: **$3 per 1,000 dataset items** — same rate on every Apify plan tier.
- Apify start fee: $0.00005 per run.

### Notes

- Cian serves ~28 listings per page — raise **Pages per search** to fetch more.
- Cian has no sold/closed listings — deal type is **For Sale** or **For Rent** only.
- Prices are in rubles (₽).

### Errors

- Failures land in the dataset as rows with `Mode = "ERROR"` and the upstream error message in `Title` — nothing is silently dropped.

# Actor input Schema

## `search_inputs` (type: `array`):

Auto-detects each entry and routes to the right `/search/*` endpoint:
• `https://www.cian.ru/...` (search or offer URL) → `/search/byurl`
• `lat,lng` or `lat,lng,radius` (e.g. `55.75,37.62,3`) → `/search/bycoordinates`
• `lon lat,lon lat,...` (≥4 space-separated pairs) → `/search/bypolygon`
• Pure digits (e.g. `1`) → `/search/byregionid` (Cian region id — find ids via the Autocomplete section)
• Anything else (city / district / metro / street, e.g. `Москва`, `Тверская, Москва`) → `/search/bylocation`

The filters below apply to every search. Each hit returns one row per listing.

## `property_inputs` (type: `array`):

Auto-detects each entry and calls the right endpoint:
• Digits only (e.g. `317927888`) → `/details/byid`
• `https://www.cian.ru/sale/flat/.../` → `/details/byurl`

Each row is one full listing record (price, area, rooms, building, photos, metro/geo, agent/owner contacts).

## `similar_ids` (type: `array`):

For each Cian offer id, fetch comparable listings via `/similar/byid` (one row per similar offer).

## `agent_ids` (type: `array`):

For each Cian user/agency id, fetch `/agent/details` (one profile row) plus `/agent/offers` (one row per active listing). Agent ids appear in the `Agent / Owner` and `Raw` columns of search results.

## `newbuilding_ids` (type: `array`):

For each residential-complex id, fetch `/newbuilding/byid` (one row per ЖК: name, status, completion year, address). New-building ids appear in the `Raw` column of search results.

## `autocomplete_inputs` (type: `array`):

Resolve Russian location names to Cian region ids via `/autocomplete`. Each row carries the `Property ID` = region id you can feed back into the Search section's `byregionid` mode. Returns cities, districts, metro stations, and streets.

## `searchType` (type: `string`):

Sale or rent. Cian has no sold/closed listings.

## `propertyType` (type: `string`):

Which Cian category to search.

## `rooms` (type: `string`):

## `priceRange` (type: `string`):

Format: `min:5000000,max:15000000` — either half optional. Rubles.

## `totalAreaRange` (type: `string`):

Format: `min:40,max:80`.

## `floorRange` (type: `string`):

Format: `min:2,max:9`.

## `yearBuiltRange` (type: `string`):

Format: `min:2000,max:2024`.

## `houseMaterial` (type: `string`):

Comma-separated: `brick,monolith,panel` (also `block`, `wood`, `stalin`).

## `buildingStatus` (type: `string`):

Limit apartments to new construction or secondary market.

## `sortOrder` (type: `string`):

How to sort search results.

## `notFirstFloor` (type: `boolean`):

## `notLastFloor` (type: `boolean`):

Exclude top-floor listings.

## `withPhoto` (type: `boolean`):

Only listings that have photos.

## `pages` (type: `integer`):

How many pages to fetch for each Search query (Cian serves ~28 listings per page).

## `resultCount` (type: `integer`):

Listings per page (Cian caps each page at 28). Also caps Similar and Agent-offers results.

## MCP server setup

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