Idealista is served through the Universal Web Scraper API

You scrape Idealista with Chocodata's Universal Web Scraper API: point it at any Idealista URL and get the page back as structured JSON. Residential proxies, rotation, and retries are handled for you, with no Idealista-specific setup. The same API key and credits work here as on every dedicated endpoint.

About Idealista

Idealista is one of the largest property portals in Southern Europe, covering homes for sale and rent in Spain, Italy, and Portugal. Its search result pages list many properties with prices and key attributes that are useful to scrape at scale.

Scraping note: Idealista uses aggressive anti-bot protection and rate limiting, so rotating residential proxies and human-like request pacing are important.

Example Idealista page

https://www.idealista.com/venta-viviendas/madrid-madrid/

Pass a URL like this as url= to the Universal Web Scraper API and get it back as JSON.

Fields you can extract from Idealista

check_small price check_small title and listing URL check_small location or district check_small surface area in square meters check_small number of rooms check_small agency or private seller

Common use: Build a price index of apartments for sale by district in Madrid or Barcelona to support market-analysis and valuation models.

Everything you need to scrape Idealista

You never expose your own IP, you get validated JSON instead of raw HTML, and the free tier covers idealista scraper at 1,000 requests a month with no card required.

Idealista Scraper API FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Idealista?

expand_more
Scraping publicly accessible Idealista data is generally legal in the US under the Ninth Circuit's hiQ v. LinkedIn ruling, which held that scraping public web data does not violate the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. It does not override Idealista's own Terms of Service, which are a contract matter, so check those for your use case and comply with data laws such as GDPR. This is general information, not legal advice.

How do I scrape Idealista without getting blocked?

expand_more
You scrape Idealista without getting blocked by sending the URL to the Universal Web Scraper API, which fetches it through rotating residential proxies and retries on soft blocks. Your own IP is never used, so Idealista's anti-bot layer sees ordinary residential traffic instead of a server.

What data does the Idealista Scraper API return?

expand_more
Through the Universal Web Scraper API you get the Idealista page back as JSON: rendered HTML, plain text, or auto-parsed content depending on the parse mode you pass. You choose the URL, Chocodata returns the data.

How much does the Idealista Scraper API cost?

expand_more
The Idealista Scraper API costs nothing to start: the Free plan includes 1,000 requests per month (5,000 credits) across all 235 targets. After that, monthly plans begin at $19, or you top up pay-as-you-go at $0.90 per 1,000 successful requests. One request is 5 credits, and non-2xx responses are never charged.

Do I need a Idealista account or login?

expand_more
No Idealista login is needed for public pages. You point the Universal Web Scraper API at a publicly accessible Idealista URL with your Chocodata API key; you do not hand over any Idealista credentials. Login-gated content is not supported.
