## 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.
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

## Indeed Jobs Scraper — Search by Keyword

Discover Indeed job listings by keyword across any country / Indeed domain. Returns full job records — title, company, salary, location, description, apply link, logo, posting date, and more. Great for ATS pipelines, market salary research, recruitment intelligence, and competitive hiring analysis.

### What this Actor does

Given a search query (keyword + country + domain + optional location and filters), discovers all matching Indeed jobs and pushes one record per job to the default dataset.

### Input

Each Actor run executes one Indeed search.

| Field             | Type   | Required | Default       | Description                                                                                  |
| ----------------- | ------ | -------- | ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `keyword_search`  | string | yes      | —             | Job title / keyword to search for, e.g. `"analyst"` or `"product manager"`                   |
| `country`         | string | no       | `"US"`        | ISO country code (`"US"`, `"FR"`, `"GB"`, `"DE"`, etc.)                                      |
| `domain`          | string | no       | `"indeed.com"`| Indeed domain to search on (`"indeed.com"`, `"fr.indeed.com"`, `"uk.indeed.com"`, …)         |
| `location`        | string | no       | `""`          | Free-form location string, e.g. `"New York, NY"` or `"Paris"`. Empty = entire country.       |
| `date_posted`     | enum   | no       | `""`          | `""`, `"Last 24 hours"`, `"Last 3 days"`, `"Last 7 days"`, `"Last 14 days"`                  |
| `posted_by`       | string | no       | `""`          | Filter by poster type (`"Employer"`, `"Staffing agency"`)                                    |
| `location_radius` | string | no       | `""`          | Miles around the location (`"5"`, `"10"`, `"25"`, `"50"`, …)                                 |

Example input:

```json
{
    "keyword_search": "analyst",
    "country": "US",
    "domain": "indeed.com",
    "location": "New York, NY",
    "date_posted": "Last 24 hours",
    "posted_by": "",
    "location_radius": ""
}
````

To run multiple searches (e.g. US analyst + FR product manager), create a separate Apify task.

### Output

Each job item in the dataset includes every field the provider returns. Common fields you can expect:

```json
{
    "jobid": "607180797caa2c30",
    "company_name": "Metropolitan Transportation Authority",
    "date_posted_parsed": "2026-05-16T08:17:50.341Z",
    "job_title": "Operations Analyst – HR: Employment (NYCT)",
    "description_text": "Description JOB TITLE: ...",
    "benefits": [],
    "location": "300 Cadman Plaza West, Brooklyn, NY 11201",
    "salary_formatted": "$45,125 a year",
    "company_rating": 4,
    "company_reviews_count": 309,
    "country": "US",
    "date_posted": "1 day ago",
    "region": "NY",
    "company_link": "https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Metropolitan-Transportation-Authority-7?...",
    "domain": "https://indeed.com",
    "apply_link": "https://www.indeed.com/applystart?jk=607180797caa2c30&...",
    "srcname": "www.indeed.com",
    "url": "https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=607180797caa2c30",
    "is_expired": false,
    "discovery_input": {
        "country": "US",
        "domain": "indeed.com",
        "keyword_search": "analyst",
        "location": "New York, NY",
        "date_posted": "Last 24 hours",
        "posted_by": "",
        "location_radius": ""
    },
    "job_location": "300 Cadman Plaza West in Brooklyn, NY 11201",
    "job_description_formatted": "<div><p><b>Description</b></p>...</div>",
    "logo_url": "https://d2q79iu7y748jz.cloudfront.net/s/_squarelogo/256x256/80a263f4cedc4492e628479e5d010de6",
    "shift_schedule": ["8 hour shift"],
    "timestamp": "2026-05-17T15:12:02.308Z",
    "input": { "url": "...", "discovery_input": { "..." } }
}
```

When a search finds no jobs, the actor emits an error row instead of a job row, e.g.:

```json
{ "error": "Jobs not been found", "error_code": "dead_page", "input": { ... }, "timestamp": "..." }
```

These warning rows are pushed to the dataset as-is so you can see exactly which queries came up empty.

### Limits & responsible use

- The Actor only returns information that is publicly visible on Indeed search results / job detail pages.
- Respect Indeed's Terms of Service, robots.txt expectations, and applicable employment-data privacy regulations.
