Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

This is not just a basic scraper; it is a **Lead Generation powerhouse** designed to extract hidden emails, verified tech stacks, and detailed salary insights. Whether you are a recruiter, a job seeker, or a lead gen agency, the **WWR Lead Sniper** provides the competitive edge you need in the remote job market. --- ### 🔥 Key Features * **Verified Tech Stack Extraction:** Unlike other scrapers, we pull skills directly from official job tags and deep-scan the description. * **Direct Contact Discovery:** Automatically identifies application emails and external links hidden within the text. * **Salary Intelligence:** Categorizes leads by pay scale (High/Mid/Entry) and extracts exact USD ranges. * **Company Deep-Dive:** Scrapes the company's "Hero" bio to give you context on who is hiring (VC-backed, startups, etc.). * **Residential Proxy Ready:** Pre-configured to work with residential proxies to bypass Cloudflare and 403 errors. * **Smart Tier System:** Built-in logic to handle Free and Pro users seamlessly. --- ### 🛠️ How It Works (Input) Setting up the scraper is simple. You can target specific categories or scrape the entire platform. | Field | Type | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Category URLs** | Array | List of WWR category links (e.g., Full-Stack, DevOps). | | **Include Description** | Boolean | Deep-crawl each job post for maximum data. | | **Max Jobs** | Integer | Limit the number of results per run. | | **Proxy Configuration** | Object | Select **Residential Proxies** for 100% success rate. | --- ### 📊 High-Value Output Example The scraper returns clean, structured JSON data ready for your CRM or cold outreach tools. ```json { "jobTitle": "Full-stack/Backend developers LLM focused.", "companyName": "CloudDevs", "jobLink": "https://weworkremotely.com/remote-jobs/clouddevs-full-stack-backend-developers-llm-focused", "companyDescription": "CloudDevs is helping world-class, venture-backed startups find talented designers and developers...", "salary": "$50,000 - $74,999 USD", "techStack": [ "Java", "JavaScript", "Node.js", "Python", "Go" ], "applyEmail": "support@clouddevs.com", "tier": "FREE", "scrapedAt": "2026-04-09T17:34:31.708Z" } ```` *** ### 💰 Pricing & Tiers This Actor features a **Usage-Based Tier System**: - **Free Users:** Limited to **2 results per run**. Perfect for testing the data quality. - **Paid/Pro Users:** Unlock the full potential with **unlimited results**, full descriptions, and faster concurrency. *** ### 💡 Why choose WWR Lead Sniper? WWR is one of the most protected job boards. Basic scrapers often get blocked by Cloudflare or return messy, unformatted data. Our **Sniper Logic** ensures that: 1. Data is cleaned of "Related Jobs" noise. 2. Formatting is preserved for easy reading. 3. **Residential Proxies** are utilized to ensure your tasks never fail with 403 or 504 errors. *** ### 📖 Developer Support If you encounter any issues or need a custom feature (like Slack/Discord notifications), please reach out via the **Issues** tab. **Note:** Always use **Residential Proxies** for the best experience on We Work Remotely. # Actor input Schema ## `categoryUrls` (type: `array`): List of WWR categories to scrape. ## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`): If true, scraper will enter each ad. ## `maxJobs` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of jobs to scrape. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Residential proxy is enabled by default to avoid Cloudflare blocking. ## Actor input object example ```json { "categoryUrls": [ { "url": "https://weworkremotely.com/categories/remote-full-stack-programming-jobs" } ], "includeDescription": true, "maxJobs": 5, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
