## What's an Apify Actor?
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.

## Workable Jobs Scraper: Harvest Job Data from Workable.com
---
### What Is Workable.com?
Workable.com is a leading Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and recruitment platform used by thousands of companies worldwide. It hosts job postings across industries, from startups to enterprises, making it a valuable source for talent intelligence, market research, and job aggregation. Manually extracting job details from individual postings is tedious and error-prone — the **Workable Jobs Scraper** automates this process, delivering structured data ready for analysis or integration.
---
### Overview
The **Workable Jobs Scraper** extracts comprehensive job detail pages from jobs.workable.com, converting unstructured HTML into clean, structured records. It is designed for:
- **Recruiters** and talent acquisition teams monitoring hiring trends across competitors
- **Job aggregators** building multi-source job databases
- **HR researchers** analyzing compensation, benefits, and role trends
- **Career platforms** enriching their job data with Workable listings
- **Data analysts** studying employment patterns by location, industry, and role type
Key strengths include simple configuration, automatic URL validation via `ignore_url_failures`, and comprehensive field coverage spanning job basics to company details.
---
### Input Format
The scraper accepts a minimal JSON configuration:
```json
{
"urls": [
"https://jobs.workable.com/view/hKZJ9kCoLRyWcWLKsNN2VU/remote-content-creator-in-miami-at-cache-ventures"
],
"ignore_url_failures": true
}
````
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `urls` | Array | Direct links to Workable job detail pages. Paste individual URLs or use bulk edit for lists. |
| `ignore_url_failures` | Boolean | If `true`, the scraper continues running even if some URLs fail, preventing full-run interruptions. Set to `false` to halt on errors. |
**How to find Workable URLs:**
1. Navigate to jobs.workable.com or a company's career page powered by Workable
2. Click a job listing to open the detail page
3. Copy the full URL from your browser's address bar
4. Paste into the `urls` array
> **Note:** Use job *detail* page URLs, not search or filter pages. Each URL should load a single job posting.
***

### How to Use
1. **Collect URLs** — Open Workable jobs or company career pages. For each listing you want, click to open the detail page and copy its URL.
2. **Prepare input** — Paste URLs into the `urls` array. Format example:
```json
{
"urls": [
"https://jobs.workable.com/view/abc123/job-title-company",
"https://jobs.workable.com/view/def456/another-role-company"
],
"ignore_url_failures": true
}
```
3. **Configure error handling** — Leave `ignore_url_failures: true` for batch runs (recommended). Set to `false` only if you need to verify every URL succeeds.
4. **Run the scraper** — Start the actor and monitor the execution log for warnings.
5. **Export and use** — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel for database import, analysis, or API integration.
**Best practices:**
- Test with 2–3 URLs first to verify format before large-scale runs
- If URLs fail, verify they are direct job detail pages (not search results)
- Use JSON export for systems that require structured data; CSV for spreadsheet analysis
***
### Use Cases & Business Value

- **Job aggregation:** Power multi-source job search sites with fresh Workable listings
- **Market analysis:** Identify hiring trends by location, department, employment type, and company size
