Questions about the Trulia API

Does the Trulia scraper access private data?
No. This guide covers public property listing pages and does not require signing in to a Trulia account.
Are all fields always available?
No. Returned data depends on what the public Trulia page exposes and what the extractor supports.
Can I collect multiple pages at once?
Each request takes one public URL. Submit one request per page you need to collect.
When should I use a premium proxy?
Use it only when a target requires it or when you need country targeting for a public page.
