If you need to pull Finn.no data at scale and there's no clean official API, this guide shows how to export it to JSON, CSV or Excel in a couple of minutes — with no scraping code to maintain.
We'll use the Finn.no Scraper, a hosted scraper on the Apify platform. You only need a free Apify token — no Finn.no login, no proxies, no reverse-engineering.
What data you get
Each run returns structured records with fields like:
finnkodeadTypetitlelocationpricetotalPricepropertyTypebedroomsmakemodelyearcompanyurllocalAreaName
Results are paginated automatically — you can pull thousands of rows per run and export them as JSON, CSV, Excel, JSONL or XML.
Option 1 — No code (Apify Console)
- Open the actor: https://apify.com/logiover/finn-no-scraper
- Click Try for free.
- Leave the input empty for a broad sample, or set the fields below.
- Run it, then Export the dataset as CSV/JSON/Excel.
Option 2 — Node.js
npm install finn-no-scraper
const scrape = require("finn-no-scraper");
(async () => {
const items = await scrape({}, { token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
console.log(items.length, "results");
console.log(items[0]);
})();
Option 3 — Python
pip install finn-no-scraper
from finn_no_scraper import scrape
items = scrape({}, token="YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
print(len(items), "results")
print(items[0])
