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 ### What does Eluta.ca Job Scraper do? Eluta.ca Job Scraper extracts structured job data from [eluta.ca](https://eluta.ca) — including salary data, apply URLs, company metadata, and full descriptions. It supports keyword search, location filters, and controllable result limits, so you can run the same query consistently over time. The actor also offers detail enrichment (full descriptions and company metadata) where the source provides them. **New to Apify?** [Sign up free](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=1h3gvi) and use the included $5 monthly platform credit to test this actor. ### Key features - **♻️ Incremental mode** — recurring runs emit and charge only for listings that are new or whose tracked content changed. First run builds the baseline; subsequent runs emit only NEW / UPDATED / REAPPEARED records (UNCHANGED + EXPIRED opt-in). Saves 80–95% on daily monitoring. - **🔔 Notifications** — Telegram, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp Cloud API, and generic webhook out of the box. Pair with incremental for daily new-listing alerts without pipeline glue. - **🔗 Paste-mode** — paste any eluta URL straight from your browser — single-listing pages, search-results URLs, or category SEO URLs. Mix freely with keyword and IDs in the same run; results dedupe by ID. - **🎯 Batch searches** — pass `["term1", "term2"]` for query, location, or city to batch multiple searches in one run — shared dedup state, single dataset, one Actor-Start charge instead of N. - **📧 Email + phone extraction** — best-effort regex extraction of contact emails and phone numbers from descriptions — emitted as `extractedEmails[]` and `extractedPhones[]` on every record. - **🔗 URL + social-profile extraction** — every record carries `extractedUrls[]` plus a structured `socialProfiles { linkedin, twitter, instagram, facebook, youtube, tiktok, github, xing }` parsed from the description. - **📦 Compact mode** — AI-agent and MCP-friendly payloads with core fields only. - **✂️ Description truncation** — cap description length with `descriptionMaxLength` to control LLM prompt cost and dataset size — set 0 for full descriptions, or any char-limit to trim. - **📌 Change classification** — each record carries a `changeType` of NEW / UPDATED / UNCHANGED / REAPPEARED / EXPIRED. Default emits NEW + UPDATED + REAPPEARED; opt into the others with `emitUnchanged` / `emitExpired`. Repost detection flags previously-expired listings that come back. - **📤 Export anywhere** — Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Apify Console, or stream live via the Apify API and integrations (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, n8n, …). ### What data can you extract from eluta.ca? Each result includes Core listing fields (`jobId`, `jobKey`, `title`, `location`, `salaryText`, `salaryRange`, `salaryMin`, and `salaryMax`, and more), detail fields when enrichment is enabled (`description`, `descriptionText`, `descriptionHtml`, `descriptionMarkdown`, and `descriptionLength`), apply information (`applyUrl`), and company metadata (`company`, `companySlug`, `companyUrl`, and `companyDescription`). In standard mode, all fields are always present — unavailable data points are returned as `null`, never omitted. In compact mode, only core fields are returned. Enable detail enrichment in the input to get richer fields such as full descriptions and company metadata where the source provides them. ### Input The main inputs are a search keyword, an optional location filter, and a result limit. Additional filters and options are available in the input schema. Key parameters: - **`query`** — Job search keywords. Use JSON array for multi-query. - **`country`** — Which eluta.ca market to search. (default: `"CA"`) - **`location`** — City, state, or region. Use JSON array for multi-location. - **`startUrls`** — Direct search or job detail URLs. - **`maxResults`** — Maximum total job listings to return (0 = unlimited). (default: `25`) - **`maxPages`** — Maximum SERP pages to scrape per search source. (default: `5`) - **`includeDetails`** — Fetch each job's detail page for the full description, employer details, industry and apply link. (default: `true`) - **`includeKeywords`** — Only keep jobs whose title, company or description contains at least one of these keywords (case-insensitive). - **`excludeKeywords`** — Drop jobs whose title, company or description contains any of these keywords (case-insensitive). - **`fromDate`** — Only keep jobs posted on or after this date (ISO 8601, e.g. 2026-05-01). - **`toDate`** — Only keep jobs posted on or before this date (ISO 8601). - **`maxAgeMinutes`** — Only keep jobs posted within the last N minutes. 0 / empty = no age filter. - ...and 19 more parameters ### Input examples **Basic search** — Keyword-driven search with a result cap. → Full payload per result — all standard fields populated where the source provides them. ```json { "query": "software engineer", "maxResults": 50 } ```` **Incremental tracking** — Only emit jobs that changed since the previous run with this `stateKey`. → First run builds the baseline state. Subsequent runs emit only records that are new or whose tracked content changed. Set `emitUnchanged: true` to include unchanged records as well. ```json { "query": "software engineer", "maxResults": 200, "incrementalMode": true, "stateKey": "software-engineer-tracker" } ``` **Compact output for AI agents** — Return only core fields for AI-agent and MCP workflows. → Small payload with the most important fields — ideal for piping into LLMs without token overhead. ```json { "query": "software engineer", "maxResults": 50, "compact": true } ``` ### Output Each run produces a dataset of structured job records. Results can be downloaded as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Dataset tab in Apify Console. ### Example job record ```json { "jobId": "3682aa89d5f22a7f922c283f09c8c9e871d0eb321616f93b061dec2830e70b8a", "jobKey": "0d7dfc80f53504d7efc61a7129658226", "title": "AI First Software Engineer", "company": "OPENLANE Canada", "companySlug": "openlane", "companyUrl": null, "companyDescription": null, "location": "Toronto, ON - Work Remotely", "description": null, "descriptionText": null, "descriptionHtml": null, "descriptionMarkdown": null, "descriptionLength": 0, "salaryText": "$90,000 - $130,000", "salaryRange": "$90,000 - $130,000", "salaryMin": 90000, "salaryMax": 130000, "salaryCurrency": "CAD", "salaryType": "YEAR", "employmentType": null, "industry": null, "publishedAge": null, "postedAt": null, "validThrough": null, "canonicalUrl": "https://www.eluta.ca/spl/ai-first-software-engineer-0d7dfc80f53504d7efc61a7129658226?imo=12", "applyUrl": "https://www.eluta.ca/spl/ai-first-software-engineer-0d7dfc80f53504d7efc61a7129658226?imo=12", "sourceUrl": "https://www.eluta.ca/spl/ai-first-software-engineer-0d7dfc80f53504d7efc61a7129658226?imo=12", "sourceCountry": "CA", "sourceDomain": "www.eluta.ca", "searchQuery": "software engineer", "searchUrl": "https://www.eluta.ca/search?q=software+engineer&l=Toronto", "isSponsored": false, "fetchedAt": "2026-05-29T15:50:22.837Z", "detailFetched": true, "contentQuality": "serp_only", "contentHash": "2c34aced5aea7ef6706f9ff24018df83a9fa34e9dbc61df54e59dbd7b2013174", "extractedEmails": [], "extractedPhones": [], "extractedUrls": [], "socialProfiles": { "linkedin": null, "twitter": null, "instagram": null, "facebook": null, "youtube": null, "tiktok": null, "github": null, "xing": null, "bluesky": null, "threads": null, "mastodon": null }, "isRepost": null, "repostOfId": null, "repostDetectedAt": null, "changeType": null, "trackedHash": null, "firstSeenAt": null, "lastSeenAt": null, "previousSeenAt": null, "expiredAt": null, "stateKey": null } ``` ### Incremental fields When `incremental: true`, each record also carries: - `changeType` — one of `NEW`, `UPDATED`, `UNCHANGED`, `REAPPEARED`, `EXPIRED`. Default output covers `NEW` / `UPDATED` / `REAPPEARED`; set `emitUnchanged: true` or `emitExpired: true` to opt into the others. - `firstSeenAt`, `lastSeenAt` — ISO-8601 timestamps tracking the listing across runs. - `isRepost`, `repostOfId`, `repostDetectedAt` — populated when a new listing matches the tracked content of a previously expired one. Set `skipReposts: true` to drop detected reposts from the output. ### How to scrape eluta.ca 1. Go to [Eluta.ca Job Scraper](https://apify.com/blackfalcondata/eluta-scraper?fpr=1h3gvi) in Apify Console. 2. Enter a search keyword and optional location filter. 3. Set `maxResults` to control how many results you need. 4. Enable `includeDetails` if you need full descriptions, company data. 5. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish. 6. Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel. ### Use cases - Extract job data from eluta.ca for market research and competitive analysis. - Track salary trends across regions and categories over time. - Monitor new and changed listings on scheduled runs without processing the full dataset every time. - Auto-apply or feed apply URLs into your ATS / hiring pipeline. - Research company hiring patterns, employer profiles, and industry distribution. - Feed structured data into AI agents, MCP tools, and automated pipelines using compact mode. - Export clean, structured data to dashboards, spreadsheets, or data warehouses. ### How much does it cost to scrape eluta.ca? Eluta.ca Job Scraper uses [pay-per-event](https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/paid-actors/pay-per-event) pricing. You pay a small fee when the run starts and then for each result that is actually produced. - **Run start:** $0.005 per run - **Per result:** $0.0015 per job record Example costs: - 10 results: **$0.02** - 25 results: **$0.04** - 100 results: **$0.15** - 200 results: **$0.3** - 500 results: **$0.76** #### Example: recurring monitoring savings These examples compare full re-scrapes with incremental runs at different churn rates. Churn is the share of listings that are new or whose tracked content changed since the previous run. Actual churn depends on your query breadth, source activity, and polling frequency — the scenarios below are examples, not predictions. Example setup: 100 results per run, daily polling (30 runs/month). Event-pricing examples scale linearly with result count. | Churn rate | Full re-scrape run cost | Incremental run cost | Savings vs full re-scrape | Monthly cost after baseline | |---|---:|---:|---:|---:| | 5% — stable niche query | $0.15 | $0.01 | $0.14 (92%) | $0.38 | | 15% — moderate broad query | $0.15 | $0.03 | $0.13 (82%) | $0.82 | | 30% — high-volume aggregator | $0.15 | $0.05 | $0.11 (68%) | $1.50 | Full re-scrape monthly cost at daily polling: $4.65. First month with incremental costs $0.52 / $0.95 / $1.60 for the 5% / 15% / 30% scenarios because the first run builds baseline state at full cost before incremental savings apply. Platform usage (compute and proxies) is billed separately by Apify based on actual consumption. Incremental runs consume less on result processing, though fixed per-run overhead stays the same. ### FAQ #### How many results can I get from eluta.ca?
