Indeed Job Scraper — 62 Countries with Salary Data

What does Indeed Job Scraper do?

Indeed Job Scraper extracts structured job data from indeed.com — including salary data, contact details, company metadata, full descriptions, remote-work indicators, location data, and ratings and reviews. 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, company profiles, and contact information) where the source provides them, incremental monitoring that only returns new or changed results on recurring runs, and a compact output mode for AI-agent and MCP workflows.

What data can you extract from indeed.com?

Each result includes Core listing fields (jobId, jobKey, title, location, salaryText, salaryMin, salaryMax, and salaryCurrency, and more), detail fields when enrichment is enabled (description, descriptionHtml, descriptionLength, benefits, and detailFetched), contact and apply information (applyUrl and extractedEmails), and company metadata (company, companyUrl, companyRating, and companyReviewsCount). 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, company profiles, and contact information 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.

• maxPages — Maximum SERP pages to scrape per search source. Each page typically contains 15 results. (default: 5)
