Catalogue Actors link to their detail pages; the score (0 to 100) is the published formula, identical for every tool. Other Store tools follow in their own table, for reference. Price is the published primary-result rate per 1,000 (the Free-plan rate where the price is tiered; higher Apify plans pay less); start events and platform usage are excluded.

Official API route

FINN API

The FINN REST API gives access to website features such as ad search and ad view, and is available to advertisers and business partners (e.g. real-estate agents, car dealers, job advertisers). Access requires a business relationship with FINN, ownership of the data (e.g. listing your own ads on your own site) and acceptance of the terms; FINN states it does not currently provide access to non-business parties.

Price. No public price is published; FINN describes API access as a product an advertiser includes in its business relationship with FINN, ordered through the advertiser's FINN business contact.

Limits. Each client gets a secret API key sent in the x-FINN-apikey header; keys are typically limited to one advertiser (searches need that advertiser's orgId), and no rate limits are stated on the cited pages.

The example input uses the Actor's published defaults; set your own FINN.no query before you run it. You need an Apify API token.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run_input = {
    "mode": "searchItems",
    "detailUrls": [],
    "includeDetails": False,
    "query": "iPhone",
    "sortBy": "relevance",
    "publishedToday": False,
    "itemFreeShippingOnly": False,
    "carEquipment": [],
    "carSmoothTrade": False
}

run = client.actor("dataspryva/finn-no-marketplace-vehicles-property-and-jobs").call(run_input=run_input)
if run is None:
    raise RuntimeError("The Actor run was not found.")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

pip install apify-client

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from "apify-client";

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: "<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" });
const input = {
    "mode": "searchItems",
    "detailUrls": [],
    "includeDetails": false,
    "query": "iPhone",
    "sortBy": "relevance",
    "publishedToday": false,
    "itemFreeShippingOnly": false,
    "carEquipment": [],
    "carSmoothTrade": false
};

const run = await client.actor("dataspryva/finn-no-marketplace-vehicles-property-and-jobs").call(input);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

npm install apify-client

cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/dataspryva~finn-no-marketplace-vehicles-property-and-jobs/run-sync-get-dataset-items"   -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN"   -H "Content-Type: application/json"   -d '{"mode":"searchItems","detailUrls":[],"includeDetails":false,"query":"iPhone","sortBy":"relevance","publishedToday":false,"itemFreeShippingOnly":false,"carEquipment":[],"carSmoothTrade":false}'

Waits for the run and returns the dataset items (runs over 300 seconds return HTTP 408; start an async run instead).

MCP (AI agents)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=dataspryva/finn-no-marketplace-vehicles-property-and-jobs",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Adds this Actor as a tool in an MCP client that takes a remote server URL (Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code) through Apify's hosted MCP server. OAuth sign-in also works without the header. Clients that only start local servers can wrap the URL with npx mcp-remote.
