Xing Scraper — DACH Jobs, Salary & Company Data

What does Xing Scraper do?

Xing Scraper turns xing.com into structured job, company, and employee data across the DACH+Benelux region. Job records ship with salary fields, apply URLs, full descriptions, remote-work indicators, and company metadata — detail enrichment is on by default, so a basic run already returns the complete record with no extra configuration. Its standout capability is incremental monitoring: point it at a search, put it on a schedule, and each run returns only the jobs that are NEW, UPDATED, or REAPPEARED since last time — you track a job market continuously instead of re-downloading it every run. Because pricing is pay-per-result, a scheduled run that finds nothing new produces zero rows and costs zero result charges, so leaving a daily monitor running stays cheap.

What data can you extract from xing.com?

Each result includes Core job fields (jobId, xingId, globalId, slug, jobCode, serviceOfferingGroup, title, and portalUrl, and more), detail fields when enrichment is enabled (description, descriptionHtml, descriptionMarkdown, descriptionHeaderImage, and descriptionFooterImage), apply information (applyUrl), and company metadata (company, companyId, companySize, and companyIndustry). 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 profiles where the source provides them.

Incremental fields

When incremental mode is on, 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.
• 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 much does it cost to scrape xing.com?

Xing Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay a small fee when the run starts and then for each result that is actually produced.

• Run start: $0.0005 per run
• Per result: $0.0009 per job record

Example costs:

• 10 results: $0.0095
• 25 results: $0.023
• 100 results: $0.09
• 200 results: $0.18
• 500 results: $0.45

Example: recurring monitoring savings

These examples compare full re-scrapes with incremental runs at different churn rates. Churn is the share of jobs 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: 200 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	$0.18	$0.0095	$0.17 (95%)	$0.28
15% — moderate broad query	$0.18	$0.03	$0.15 (85%)	$0.82
30% — high-volume aggregator	$0.18	$0.05	$0.13 (70%)	$1.64

Full re-scrape monthly cost at daily polling: $5.42. First month with incremental costs $0.46 / $0.98 / $1.76 for the 5% / 15% / 30% scenarios because the first run builds baseline state at full cost before incremental savings apply.

Platform usage is included in the per-result fee shown above.
