## 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.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

# README

## Rightmove Scraper

Scrape **Rightmove.co.uk** (the UK's #1 property portal) — full property details, search listings, branch / estate-agent details, Land Registry sold-price history, postcode → address lookup, and search-box autocomplete — all from one Actor. Backed by [realtyapi.io](https://realtyapi.io)'s real-time Rightmove API.

### What you can do

| Section | What it does | Input format |
|---|---|---|
| 🏠 **Property Details** | Full details for a specific listing | Rightmove `property_id` digits, listing URL, or full UK address — auto-detected per row |
| 🔎 **Search Listings** | Paginated search with full filter set | location string, UK postcode (`SW1A 1AA` or outcode `SW1A`), `lat,lng,radius_mi`, or Rightmove search URL |
| 🔍 **Autocomplete** | Search-box typeahead suggestions (regions, outcodes, stations) — each result has a `locationIdentifier` you can feed into a search URL | partial query string |
| 💰 **Sold Prices** | Land Registry sold-price history with full transaction history per address | location, postcode, or outcode |
| 🏢 **Branch / Estate Agent Details** | Full branch profile (name, address, telephone, opening hours, logo, sale/rent counts) | numeric `branchId` from any search/details row |
| 📮 **Postcode → Address** | Resolve a UK postcode to its list of full addresses (with internal ids) | full UK postcode |

You can fill any combination of sections in a single run — leave the others empty.

***

### Output

Each listing / property / branch / autocomplete suggestion / sold-price record / address is pushed as **one dataset row**, flattened to friendly columns plus a `Raw` column with the original JSON.

Key columns:

| Mode | Input Given | Property ID | Price | Beds | Address | Postcode | Branch Name | Listing URL | Raw |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `search/bylocation` | London (p1) | 148711631 | £60,000,000 | 5 | One Hyde Park, Knightsbridge, London, SW1X | SW1X 7LJ | Global 1 | https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/148711631 | `{...}` |
| `details/byid` | 148711631 | 148711631 | £60,000,000 | 5 | One Hyde Park, Knightsbridge, London, SW1X | SW1X 7LJ | Global 1 | https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/148711631 | `{...}` |
| `sold-prices` | London (p1) | … | £90,000,000 | – | Flat 1.01, The Knightsbridge Apartments, Knightsbridge, London SW7 1RH | – | – | https://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-prices/details/… | `{...}` |

Plus: `Price Raw` (numeric), `Price Qualifier`, `Monthly Rent` (RENT channel), `Property Type` / `Sub Type`, `Latitude`, `Longitude`, `Size`, `First Visible Date`, `Photos` (cover URL), `Photo Count`, `Floorplan Count`, `Key Features`, `Full Description`, all `Branch *` fields, `Location Identifier` (autocomplete), `Date Sold` / `Tenure` (sold-prices).

For nested / large fields (full photo arrays, transaction history, agent opening hours, etc.) the complete upstream JSON is in the `Raw` column.

### Sample input

```json
{
    "property_inputs": [
        "148711631",
        "https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/148711631",
        "One Hyde Park, Knightsbridge, London, SW1X 7LA"
    ],
    "search_inputs": ["London", "SW1A 1AA"],
    "searchType": "BUY",
    "propertyType": "flat",
    "priceRange": "min:500000,max:1500000",
    "bedroomsRange": "min:2",
    "sortOrder": "newest",
    "pages": 2,
    "resultCount": 25,

    "autocomplete_inputs": ["Clapham Junction", "Manchester"],
    "sold_price_inputs": ["London"],
    "soldPriceType": "flat",
    "soldIn": 3,

    "branch_inputs": ["1941"],
    "postcode_inputs": ["SW1A 1AA"]
}
```

***

### Search filters (apply to all `search_inputs`)

- **searchType** — `BUY` (default) | `RENT`
- **propertyType** — comma list of `house, detached, semi_detached, terraced, flat, bungalow, commercial, land, park_home, student_halls, other`
- **priceRange** — `min:500000` | `max:1500000` | `min:500000,max:1500000` (RENT = £/month)
- **bedroomsRange / bathroomsRange** — `min:2` | `max:4` | `min:2,max:4`
- **radius** — miles around the resolved location centre (0–40)
- **sortOrder** — `highest_price`, `lowest_price`, `newest`, `oldest`, `distance`
- **pages** — how many pages to fetch (1–50). Each page = `resultCount` listings.
- **resultCount** — 1–40 per page (Rightmove server cap), default 25
- **mustHave / dontShow** — comma list of `garden, parking, new_home, retirement, house_share, shared_ownership, auction, student`
- **furnishType** — RENT only — `furnished, part_furnished, unfurnished`
- **letType** — RENT only — `long_term, short_term, student`
- **keywords** — free-text description search (e.g. `loft conversion,balcony`)
- **daysSinceAdded** — 1 / 3 / 7 / 14
- **includeUnavailable** — toggle: include sold / let-agreed listings

Filters apply to **every** `search_inputs` row in the run.

### Sold-price filters

- **soldPriceType** — `detached, semi_detached, terraced, flat, other`
- **soldTenure** — `FREEHOLD, LEASEHOLD`
- **soldIn** — last N years (1, 3, 5, …)

***

### Pricing

**Pay per result** — you only pay for dataset items the Actor pushes. Failed inputs return a row with `Status: ERROR: …` and are billed the same as a successful row.

To cap spend, set **Max paid dataset items** on the run page.

***

### Tips

- **Need just one property?** Use the `property_inputs` section — auto-detects `property_id`, listing URL, or full UK address.
- **Pull all listings in a city?** Use `search_inputs: ["London"]` and crank `pages` (each page up to 40 results — Rightmove server cap).
- **Use a lat/lng circle?** Format: `51.5074,-0.1278,3` (last value is radius in miles).
- **Replicate a Rightmove search URL?** Drop the URL straight into `search_inputs` — all filter params embedded in the URL are honoured.
- **Looking up an estate agent?** Take any `branch.id` from a search/details row and feed it into `branch_inputs`.
- **Cleaning a CRM postcode list?** Use `postcode_inputs` to expand each postcode into its full list of UK addresses.
- **Researching market history?** Use `sold_price_inputs` for Land Registry data — includes full transaction history per address in the `Raw` column.

}

```

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).
