UKG Pro Recruiting Jobs Scraper

Export public jobs from employer career sites hosted on UKG Pro Recruiting (formerly UltiPro). Provide one or more recruiting.ultipro.com job board URLs and receive normalized employer-board and job records ready for spreadsheets, databases, alerts, and recruiting workflows.

The Actor uses the public UKG job-search and detail surfaces directly. It does not require an employer account, browser automation, or a proxy for currently supported public boards.

What does UKG Pro Recruiting Jobs Scraper do?

This Actor turns public UKG Pro employer job boards into structured records. It can:

• validate one or more public UKG Pro job board URLs;
• search every supplied board with the same keyword query;
• paginate through matching jobs;
• export stable opportunity IDs and requisition numbers;
• normalize employer categories, dates, employment flags, and locations;
• fetch full job-description HTML and readable text;
• preserve canonical board and job-detail URLs;
• emit an employer-board summary for each processed source;
• limit output across multiple boards for predictable recurring runs.

It is designed for repeatable collection rather than one-off HTML copying.

Who is this UKG Pro jobs data for?

Job aggregators

Sync openings from employers that use UKG Pro without building a separate parser for each career site. Stable board and opportunity identifiers help with deduplication and closed-job detection.

Recruiters and staffing teams

Monitor target employers, search for role families, and route new matching jobs into a CRM or outreach workflow.

Sales intelligence teams

Use hiring activity, categories, and locations as account signals. A new operations, engineering, or sales opening can trigger account research.

Labor-market analysts

Collect dated job records from multiple employer boards for longitudinal analysis, location trends, and category counts.

Data and automation engineers

Feed normalized JSON into a warehouse, webhook, Zapier flow, Make scenario, or scheduled Apify Task.

Why use this Actor?

• HTTP-first: no browser startup or page rendering is required.
• Public data path: current supported boards expose anonymous search and detail records.
• Full descriptions: optional enrichment provides both original HTML and normalized text.
• Multi-board input: one run can process several employer boards.
• Consistent filters: the keyword query applies to every source.
• Stable identity: each record includes tenant, board, and opportunity identifiers.
• Bounded retries: temporary network, rate-limit, and server failures are retried conservatively.
• Typed output: challenge pages and unexpected payloads fail visibly instead of appearing as empty success.

How to scrape a UKG Pro job board

1. Open an employer career page hosted at recruiting.ultipro.com.
2. Copy the URL containing /{tenant}/JobBoard/{boardId}.
3. Add it to UKG Pro job board URLs.
4. Optionally enter a keyword such as engineer or operations.
5. Choose the maximum number of job records.
6. Keep Fetch full job descriptions enabled for enriched records, or disable it for a faster listing sync.
7. Click Start.
8. Open the default dataset and export JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS.

A verified input is prefilled, so a first run can be started without finding another board.

Input parameters

startUrls

Required array of public UKG Pro Recruiting board URLs. Accepted URLs use this form:

https://recruiting.ultipro.com/{tenant}/JobBoard/{boardId}/

Opportunity-detail URLs from the same board are normalized back to their board source. Other hosts and malformed board paths are rejected. Duplicate board URLs are processed once.

query

Optional case-insensitive keyword query applied consistently to title, requisition number, category, brief description, and normalized location text on every supplied board. Leave it empty to collect all active jobs visible on each board.

maxJobs

Maximum number of job records across all supplied boards. The range is 1–10,000 and the default is 100. Board summary records do not consume this limit.

includeDescriptions

When true, the Actor opens each public opportunity detail page and adds full description, update, hours, salary-mode, and EEO fields. When false, it uses only the faster job-search response.

emitBoardRecords

When true, one summary is emitted for each processed board. The summary includes employer branding and the source-reported matching-job count.

maxConcurrency

Controls simultaneous detail requests from 1 to 10. The default of 5 balances throughput and source load. Lower it for especially large recurring runs or conservative source access.

Input example

{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://recruiting.ultipro.com/AAL1000AIPSA/JobBoard/90e3e14e-26e3-46c0-affc-329a34699e20/"
    }
  ],
  "query": "operations",
  "maxJobs": 25,
  "includeDescriptions": true,
  "emitBoardRecords": true,
  "maxConcurrency": 3
}

Output example

The default dataset contains both entity types. A current job record has this shape:

{
  "recordType": "job",
  "jobId": "c08a7722-ae94-4304-b790-531867e53eb0",
  "title": "Foundry Night Shift Operations Manager",
  "requisitionNumber": "FOUND001135",
  "postedDate": "2026-07-23T14:00:48.916Z",
  "updatedDate": "2026-07-23T14:00:42.017Z",
  "fullTime": true,
  "salaried": true,
  "category": "Operations",
  "briefDescription": "As a full-time Operations Manager...",
  "descriptionHtml": "<p>Ready to change the future, your way?</p>",
  "descriptionText": "Ready to change the future, your way?",
  "locations": [
    {
      "description": "Pageland - Bypass",
      "address": {
        "city": "Pageland",
        "stateCode": "SC",
        "countryCode": "USA"
      }
    }
  ],
  "detailUrl": "https://recruiting.ultipro.com/AAL1000AIPSA/JobBoard/90e3e14e-26e3-46c0-affc-329a34699e20/OpportunityDetail?opportunityId=c08a7722-ae94-4304-b790-531867e53eb0",
  "tenantId": "AAL1000AIPSA",
  "boardId": "90e3e14e-26e3-46c0-affc-329a34699e20",
  "sourceUrl": "https://recruiting.ultipro.com/AAL1000AIPSA/JobBoard/90e3e14e-26e3-46c0-affc-329a34699e20/",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-07-27T00:00:00.000Z"
}

The source controls the accuracy of published addresses and coordinates. Preserving the original sourceUrl and detailUrl makes source verification straightforward.

How much does it cost to scrape UKG Pro jobs?

Pay-per-event pricing has two parts:

• $0.005 when a valid run starts;
• $0.000041071 per saved record on the FREE tier, with lower per-record rates on higher Apify tiers.

Both job and board summary rows use the same item charge event. There is no separate charge for fetching descriptions.

Examples at the FREE-tier record rate:

Workflow	Saved records	Estimated charge
One board and 10 jobs	11	about $0.0055
One board and 100 jobs	101	about $0.0091
Five boards and 500 jobs	505	about $0.0257

These examples include the run-start event and board records. Actual billed rates follow your active Apify pricing tier and the run's charged-event counts. Set emitBoardRecords to false if downstream systems need only jobs.

Build recurring job monitoring workflows

Detect newly opened and closed roles

Schedule the Actor daily. Use boardId + jobId as the stable key, compare each dataset with the previous run, and classify additions and removals.

Route jobs to recruiters

Filter title, category, locations, or descriptionText after extraction. Send matching records to a CRM, Slack channel, email workflow, or candidate-sourcing queue.

Create hiring-intent signals

Aggregate jobs by employer, category, and location. A sustained increase in openings can become an account-prioritization or market-research signal.

Maintain a job warehouse

Store immutable snapshots with scrapedAt and upsert current entities by boardId + jobId. Retain postedDate from the source separately from collection time.

Tips for reliable runs

• Start with maxJobs between 25 and 100 while validating a new board.
• Disable descriptions when only IDs, titles, dates, categories, and locations are needed.
• Keep the default concurrency unless a board is unusually large.
• Use a precise keyword only when the source board visibly supports matching results.
• Keep the canonical board URL in your task input rather than a redirecting employer careers URL.
• Compare records by source IDs, not by mutable title text.
• Treat totalJobs as the source-reported active count before local keyword filtering.

Limits and failure behavior

The Actor supports public boards hosted on recruiting.ultipro.com with the standard UKG Pro Recruiting job-board routes. It does not log in, submit applications, access candidate information, or bypass private boards.

A board may return fewer records than its unfiltered total when a query is used. Employers can omit optional fields. Location coordinates are passed through from UKG and can represent a broad geographic centroid rather than a street address.

Malformed URLs fail before charging starts. A stable 4xx response, challenge page, or unrecognized JSON/detail model fails visibly. Temporary network errors, HTTP 429 responses, and temporary 5xx responses receive bounded retries.

Use UKG Pro jobs with the Apify API

Replace YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN with an Apify API token.

cURL

curl -X POST \
  "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/automation-lab~ukg-pro-recruiting-jobs-scraper/runs?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

    "maxJobs": 25,
    "includeDescriptions": true
  }'

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('automation-lab/ukg-pro-recruiting-jobs-scraper').call({
  startUrls: [{
    url: 'https://recruiting.ultipro.com/AAL1000AIPSA/JobBoard/90e3e14e-26e3-46c0-affc-329a34699e20/'
  }],
  query: 'operations',
  maxJobs: 25,
  includeDescriptions: true
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

Python

import os
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(os.environ['APIFY_TOKEN'])
run = client.actor('automation-lab/ukg-pro-recruiting-jobs-scraper').call(run_input={
    'startUrls': [{
        'url': 'https://recruiting.ultipro.com/AAL1000AIPSA/JobBoard/90e3e14e-26e3-46c0-affc-329a34699e20/'
    }],
    'maxJobs': 25,
    'includeDescriptions': True,
})

for item in client.dataset(run['defaultDatasetId']).iterate_items():
    print(item)

Use UKG Pro jobs through MCP

Add the Actor to Claude Code through Apify's MCP server:

claude mcp add --transport http apify \
  "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=automation-lab/ukg-pro-recruiting-jobs-scraper"

Is scraping public UKG Pro jobs legal?

This Actor collects information that employers make publicly accessible on their recruiting boards. Public availability does not remove your responsibilities.

Use the data for lawful purposes, respect applicable terms and website policies, minimize request frequency, and comply with privacy, employment, anti-discrimination, copyright, and database-rights rules in your jurisdiction. Do not use the Actor to access private candidate data, submit applications automatically, impersonate people, or make solely automated employment decisions. When in doubt, obtain legal advice for your use case.

Frequently asked questions

Does this Actor require a UKG account?

No for supported public employer boards. The Actor does not accept or use candidate or employer credentials.

Does it support UltiPro URLs?

Yes. UKG Pro Recruiting continues to use the recruiting.ultipro.com host for many public employer boards.

Why is descriptionText null?

Enable includeDescriptions. Listing-only mode intentionally skips opportunity detail pages and returns the brief search description instead.

Why did my board URL fail?

Confirm that it uses HTTPS, the recruiting.ultipro.com host, and a path containing both the tenant and /JobBoard/{UUID}. A general employer careers page is not a UKG board URL.

Why are there board rows in my job dataset?

Board summaries provide employer identity and source totals. Filter on recordType == "job", or set emitBoardRecords to false.

Can I use several boards in one run?

Yes. Add each canonical board URL to startUrls; maxJobs applies across the full run.

Does it detect closed jobs?

It exports the current public result set. Schedule runs and compare stable IDs to detect records that disappear between snapshots.

Are descriptions plain text or HTML?

With enrichment enabled, both are included. Use descriptionHtml to preserve formatting and descriptionText for search, NLP, and exports.
