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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Arbeitsagentur Jobs Scraper — Germany Federal Employment API Scrapes German job listings from the official Bundesagentur für Arbeit REST API. It uses `https://rest.arbeitsagentur.de/jobboerse/jobsuche-service/pc/v4/jobs` with the documented public `X-API-Key: jobboerse-jobsuche` header. No browser, Puppeteer, proxy or HTML scraping is required. ### Input - `searchQuery` — keyword or title, default `""` - `location` — city/place, default `""` - `radiusKm` — search radius around `location`, default `25` - `maxResults` — maximum dataset items, default `100` - `includeDetails` — fetch `/pc/v4/jobdetails/{base64(refnr)}`, default `false` - `employmentType` — `""`, `"VOLL"` or `"TEIL"`, default `""` ### Output Each dataset item includes: - `jobId` - `titel` - `beruf` - `arbeitgeber` - `arbeitsort.ort` - `arbeitsort.plz` - `arbeitsort.land` - `aktuelleVeroeffentlichungsdatum` - `eintrittsdatum` - `modifikationsTimestamp` - `externeUrl` - detail fields when enabled: `beschreibung`, `verguetung`, `arbeitszeit`, `befristung`, `ausbildung` ### Example input ```json { "searchQuery": "developer", "location": "Berlin", "maxResults": 10, "includeDetails": true } ```` # Actor input Schema ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Keyword or job title to search for, e.g. developer, nurse, python. ## `location` (type: `string`): City or place in Germany, e.g. Berlin, Hamburg, München. ## `radiusKm` (type: `integer`): Search radius around the location in kilometers. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of job listings to save. ## `includeDetails` (type: `boolean`): Fetch each job detail endpoint to include description, salary, work time and contract fields. ## `employmentType` (type: `string`): Optional work-time filter. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchQuery": "", "location": "", "radiusKm": 25, "maxResults": 100, "includeDetails": false, "employmentType": "" } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = {}; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("antishock/arbeitsagentur-jobs-api-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
