Overview
OLX Polska Listings Scraper

It returns each listing as a flat row, ready for analysis or export.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that your search query is spelled correctly and is a term that exists on OLX Polska. Also ensure that maxItems is set to a positive number. If the problem persists, try a more general query.
Why are some listings missing fields?
OLX Polska listings may not always have all fields filled in by the seller. The Actor returns whatever data is available on the page, so some fields may be empty.
Why does the Actor return fewer items than maxItems?
The Actor returns up to maxItems listings, but if the search query has fewer results on OLX Polska, it will return only what is available.
Why did the run fail with a timeout?
OLX Polska may be slow or temporarily blocking requests. Try running the Actor again later, or reduce the maxItems to speed up the run.
