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 ## AmbitionBox Company Scraper Scrape public company data from [AmbitionBox](https://www.ambitionbox.com) — India's largest platform for company reviews, salaries, and workplace insights. ### Sample output ```json { "name": "TCS", "slug": "tcs", "rating": 3.3, "reviewCount": 120000, "salaryCount": 1020000, "interviewCount": 11800, "jobCount": 4200, "industry": "IT Services & Consulting", "locations": "Bengaluru +445 other locations", "highlyRated": ["Job Security"], "criticallyRated": ["Promotions", "Salary", "Work Satisfaction"], "overviewUrl": "https://www.ambitionbox.com/overview/tcs-overview", "reviewsUrl": "https://www.ambitionbox.com/reviews/tcs-reviews", "salariesUrl": "https://www.ambitionbox.com/salaries/tcs-salaries", "interviewUrl": "https://www.ambitionbox.com/interviews/tcs-interview-questions", "logoUrl": "https://static.ambitionbox.com/alpha/company/photos/logos/tcs.jpg", "scrapedAt": "2026-06-01T15:53:41.773Z" } ```` ### Input parameters | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `mode` | string | `"list"` | `"list"` = scrape company listing, `"company"` = specific companies | | `industry` | string | `""` | Filter by industry slug.

Example: 'Java developer', 'data scientist', 'MBA finance' ## `location` (type: `string`): City or region. Example: 'bangalore', 'mumbai', 'delhi ncr'. Leave blank to search all India. ## `experienceMin` (type: `integer`): Minimum years of experience required. Use 0 for fresher jobs. ## `experienceMax` (type: `integer`): Maximum years of experience filter. ## `maxJobs` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of job listings to return. Naukri returns 20 per page. ## `deepSearch` (type: `boolean`): If enabled, visits each job detail page to extract the full job description. Slower and uses more compute — disable if you only need listing data. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Sort job listings by relevance or date posted. ## Actor input object example ```json { "keyword": "software developer", "location": "", "experienceMin": 0, "experienceMax": 5, "maxJobs": 50, "deepSearch": false, "sortBy": "date" } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
