It has two run modes. 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. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## 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. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ![banner](https://anyx.solutions/banners/remoteok-jobs-scraper.png) ## Remote OK Jobs Scraper **Remote jobs from Remote OK — with tags, locations, listed salaries, company logos and full descriptions — as clean JSON.** [Remote OK](https://remoteok.com/) is one of the largest boards for remote work, with new jobs in development, design, marketing, customer support, sales and more every day. This Actor reads Remote OK's listings and returns every job: title, company and logo, tags, location, the salary range when the employer lists one, the posting date, and the full description as HTML and plain text. Paste the home page, a tag page such as `remote-dev-jobs`, or a single job URL; there is no login, no API key, and no proxy to configure. Built for job aggregators, remote-work newsletters, recruiting and talent-intelligence teams, and salary research. All data comes from [Remote OK](https://remoteok.com/), and every job keeps its link back to its page on Remote OK. If you republish the jobs, link to that page and name Remote OK as the source. ### ⚡ Quick start ```json { "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://remoteok.com/remote-dev-jobs" }], "maxItems": 5 } ``` ### 🧩 Input | Field | Type | Required | Default | Description | | --------------------- | ------- | -------- | ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `startUrls` | array | yes | — | Remote OK pages: the home page, a tag page (`remoteok.com/remote--jobs`), several tags at once (`remote-python+react-jobs`), or a single job (`/remote-jobs/…`). | | `maxItems` | integer | no | — | Maximum number of jobs per start URL. The input form starts at 5; leave it empty to get every job Remote OK lists for the page. | | `includeCompanyLogos` | boolean | no | `true` | Open each job's page to read the company logo. Adds one fast request per job; turn it off when you don't need logos. | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | no | `{ "useApifyProxy": false }` | Proxy settings. Remote OK's public listings need no proxy. | **Choosing a page.** Open [remoteok.com](https://remoteok.com/), click a tag such as *Dev*, *Design* or *Python*, and copy the address bar — for example `https://remoteok.com/remote-design-jobs`. A page with two tags joined by `+` returns the jobs that carry both. ### 📤 Output Each job is one dataset row. #### Fields | Field | Type | Description | | ----------------- | ------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `id` | number | Remote OK job ID. | | `slug` | string | The job's address on Remote OK. | | `title` | string | Job title. | | `company` | string | Company name. | | `companyLogo` | string | Company logo image URL. `null` when logos are off or the job has none. | | `tags` | array | Remote OK tags, such as `dev`, `design` or `python`. | | `location` | string | Where the employer hires from, as written in the job. `null` when it doesn't say. | | `salaryMin` | number | Lower end of the listed salary, in USD per year. `null` when no salary is listed. | | `salaryMax` | number | Upper end of the listed salary, in USD per year. `null` when no salary is listed. | | `postedAt` | string | When the job was posted (ISO 8601). | | `descriptionHtml` | string | Full job description as HTML. | | `descriptionText` | string | Full job description as plain text. | | `applyUrl` | string | Where to apply: the job's page on Remote OK, which links on to the employer. | | `url` | string | The job's page on Remote OK. |
Example output ```json { "id": 1137497, "slug": "remote-product-design-director-midnite-1137497", "title": "Product Design Director", "company": "Midnite", "companyLogo": "https://r2.remoteok.com/jobs/175deff6b6335611208ce1d4f0d7715a1791734404.jpg", "tags": [ "design", "exec", "sys admin", "game dev", "testing", "marketing", "web dev", "scheme", "medical", "engineer", "digital nomad" ], "location": "United Kingdom", "salaryMin": null, "salaryMax": null, "postedAt": "2026-10-11T16:00:03.000Z", "descriptionHtml": "

🚀 Why Midnite?

### 💡 Use cases - **Remote job aggregation** — feed job boards, newsletters and community channels with fresh remote jobs by tag. - **Salary research** — collect the salary ranges employers list for remote roles, by tag and location. - **Hiring signals** — watch which companies are hiring remotely, and for which skills, for sales prospecting or market research. - **Recruiting intelligence** — track demand for a stack such as Python, React or Rust across remote employers. ### ❓ FAQ - **Do I need an API key or a Remote OK account?** No. The Actor reads the same public listings any visitor sees. - **Do I need a proxy?** No. It runs without one by default. - **How many jobs does a page return?** Remote OK lists its most recent jobs for each page, about 100. Run the Actor on a schedule to build a longer history. - **Why are some salaries empty?** Employers choose whether to list a salary. `salaryMin` and `salaryMax` are `null` when the job lists none. - **Can I combine tags?** Yes. `https://remoteok.com/remote-python+react-jobs` returns jobs tagged with both. To cover several tags separately, add one URL per tag; `maxItems` applies to each one. - **Can I reuse the data?** Remote OK asks that you link back to each job's page on Remote OK and mention Remote OK as the source. Every row keeps that link in `url`. - **Why did a run return fewer jobs than expected?** The tag may have few recent jobs, or the tag in the URL may be misspelled; the log says when a page lists no jobs. Open an issue if something looks off. ### 🔗 More scrapers by Anyx - [Greenhouse Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/anyxsolutions/greenhouse-jobs-scraper) - [Lever Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/anyxsolutions/lever-jobs-scraper) - [Ashby Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/anyxsolutions/ashby-jobs-scraper) - [Indeed Scraper](https://apify.com/anyxsolutions/indeed-scraper) ### 🤝 Anyx Solutions We build custom scrapers and data-extraction pipelines. - Email: tantosthor@gmail.com ### 🖼 Image credit Image credit: [remoteok.com](https://remoteok.com/) # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Remote OK pages, such as https://remoteok.com/remote-dev-jobs, https://remoteok.com/remote-python+react-jobs (jobs with both tags), the home page https://remoteok.com/, or a single job URL (https://remoteok.com/remote-jobs/…). ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of jobs to return per start URL.
