## 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

## Actor - Autotrader UK Scraper

### Autotrader UK scraper

Since Autotrader.co.uk doesn't provide a good and free API, this actor should help you to retrieve data from it.

The Autotrader UK data scraper supports the following features:

- Search - Get any search results. You can use all cars, vans, bikes, motorhomes, caravans, trucks, farms, and plant search URLs.

- Listing details - Retrieve information about the cars, vans, bikes, motorhomes, caravans, trucks, farms, and plants. Brand, model, price, mileage, fuel type, transmission, interior colors, exterior colors, and many other features.

**🇺🇸 If you are looking into scraping Autotrader.com instead of the UK store, please check our** [Autotrader Scraper](https://apify.com/epctex/autotrader-scraper?fpr=yhdrb).

### Bugs, fixes, updates, and changelog

This scraper is under active development. If you have any feature requests you can create an issue from [here](https://github.com/epctex-support/autotradercouk-scraper/issues).

### Input Parameters

The input of this scraper should be JSON containing the list of pages on Autotrader UK that should be visited. Possible fields are:

- `startUrls`: (Required) (Array) List of Autotrader UK URLs. It should be a search, list, or listing detail URL. Search and list URLs must include a postcode. If missing, a default value will be assigned, which may change the returned results.

- `endPage`: (Optional) (Number) Final number of page that you want to scrape. The default is `Infinite`. This applies to all `search` request and `startUrls` individually.

- `maxItems`: (Optional) (Number) You can limit scraped items. This should be useful when you search through the big lists or search results.

- `proxy`: (Required) (Proxy Object) Proxy configuration.

- `extendOutputFunction`: (Optional) (String) Function that takes a JQuery handle ($) as an argument and returns an object with data.

- `customMapFunction`: (Optional) (String) Function that takes each object's handle as an argument and returns an object with executing the function.

This solution requires using **Proxy servers**, either your own proxy servers or you can use [Apify Proxy](https://www.apify.com/docs/proxy).

#### Tip

When you want to scrape over a specific listing URL, just copy and paste the link as one of the **startUrl**.

If you would like to scrape only the first page of a list then put the link for the page and have the `endPage` as 1.

With the last approach that is explained above you can also fetch any interval of pages. If you provide the 5th page of a list and define the `endPage` parameter as 6 then you'll have the 5th and 6th pages only.

#### Compute Unit Consumption

The actor is optimized to run blazing fast and scrape many listings as possible. Therefore, it forefronts all listing detail requests. If the actor doesn't block very often it'll scrape 100 listings in 2 minutes with ~0.1-0.2 compute units.

### During the Run

During the run, the actor will output messages letting you know what is going on. Each message always contains a short label specifying which page from the provided list is currently specified.
When items are loaded from the page, you should see a message about this event with a loaded item count and total item count for each page.

If you provide incorrect input to the actor, it will immediately stop with a failure state and output an explanation of what is wrong.

### Autotrader UK Export

During the run, the actor stores results into a dataset. Each item is a separate item in the dataset.

You can manage the results in any language (Python, PHP, Node JS/NPM). See the FAQ or <a href="https://www.apify.com/docs/api" target="blank">our API reference</a> to learn more about getting results from this Autotrader UK actor.

### Scraped Autotrader UK Output

The structure of each item in Autotrader UK looks like this. Most fields are always present (`null` when a listing genuinely has no value for them). A few fields — `featuresHighlights`, `vehicleHighlights`, `runningCosts`, `expertReview`, `financeInfo`, `insurance`, and `deliveryAndCollection` — are passed through directly from the site's own page data, so their internal shape and presence can vary between listings and vehicle types:
