Hi!

Could you please tell me, does Actor use proxies or do they need to be configured somehow manually?

Judging by the logs, almost all requests to Indeed or LinkedIn end with “Cannot extract data from...”

Although the links open normally when accessed manually. For example, https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/100%25-remote-microsoft-dynamics-quality-assurance-testers-at-jobs-via-dice-4268411232/

Thank you!

Have a nice day!

Hey! Thanks for reaching out.

We’re looking into adding proxy support to our actors, but right now they don’t use proxies yet.

Indeed is really tough to scrape — even with proxies, their anti-bot systems are hard to get around. LinkedIn usually works fine though, and I’ll test it with your parameters to see how it goes.

Appreciate you letting us know!

Hi!

Thanks for your reply!

Can I enable the proxy in apify for this actor myself, or do you need to make changes to the code?

From what I understand about the platform so far, the code needs to support proxies so that users can set them up and run the actor. I believe that's because the code runs on their infrastructure. But if there's a way to wrap the Actor in an environment that already has a proxy set up, feel free to try it out.

While debugging your case yesterday, I found an issue in one of our dependencies. I'm planning to update it today, so at least most of the scraping issues you've been facing should be reduced.
