What does this actor do?

Sulekha Properties Scraper navigates Sulekha's property listing pages using a real browser (Playwright), extracts structured data from each property card, and optionally deep-scrapes individual property detail pages for the richest possible dataset including full overview, amenities, furnishing details, and contact information.

Two scraping modes:

• Search mode — Crawl listing pages filtered by city, listing type, and property type with automatic pagination
• Property URL mode — Scrape one or more specific Sulekha property detail page URLs directly

Features

• Scrape properties by city, listing type (sale/rent/PG), and property type with automatic "View More" pagination
• Deep search option to enrich listings with full detail page data (overview, amenities, furnishing, photos, contact phones)
• Property URL mode to scrape specific property pages directly
• Anti-bot stealth — custom browser fingerprinting, random viewports, human-like delays
• Apify Proxy support for reliable large-scale scraping
• Input validation with clear error messages
