Dice Tech Jobs Scraper — IT Jobs, Salary & Remote API

Dice Tech Jobs Scraper

Extract normalized Dice.com tech job postings through its public search API without a buyer API key or login. Use the dataset for recruiting, salary benchmarking, job aggregators and US tech job boards.

• Get normalized rows with employer, location, employment and application fields, one per Dice job match.
• Benchmark salary, seniority and remote-work classifications.
• Filter for remote work, Easy Apply or indicated visa sponsorship.
• Build searchable tech job boards from Dice listings.

What you get

One normalized dataset row is produced for each pushed Dice job. String fields are null when Dice does not provide the value; boolean fields are false when their source flag is absent, and warnings is empty when no warnings are created.

remote_type	string	remote, hybrid, onsite, or null; inferred from Dice data and text.
seniority	string	Inferred level such as executive, vp, director, manager, principal, staff, lead, senior, intern, entry or mid; null for a blank title.
salary	string	Cleaned salary; non-salary values and missing salaries become null.
salary_raw	string	Cleaned source value before normalization; null if absent.
employment_type	string	Dice employment type, such as Contract; null if absent.
employer_type	string	Such as Direct Hire or Recruiter; null if absent.
easy_apply	boolean	Whether Dice Easy Apply is enabled.
willing_to_sponsor	boolean	Whether the employer indicates visa-sponsorship willingness.
posted_at	ISO 8601 string	Posting or first active date; null if unavailable.
url	string	Dice job URL; null if no detail URL or GUID exists.

global_id	string	dice:<job_id> when an ID or GUID exists; otherwise null.
parse_confidence	number	Always-present score from 0.0 to 1.0.
warnings	array of strings	Data-quality warning codes; empty when none are created.

Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event billing. The primary job-result event represents one Dice tech or IT job with title, company, salary, seniority, remote type, sponsorship and apply URL.

Plan	job-result price per event
Free plan	$0.000900
Bronze plan	$0.000891
Silver plan	$0.000882
Gold plan	$0.000873
Platinum plan	$0.000864
Diamond plan	$0.000855

Two additional charge events are listed:

Charge event	Free plan price per event	When it applies
salary-disclosed	$0.000900	The job record includes a disclosed salary.
sponsor-filter	$0.000900	The sponsorship filter is enabled for pushed rows.

job-result is charged for each pushed job. salary-disclosed applies when normalized salary is not null. sponsor-filter applies when willingToSponsorOnly is enabled.

1,000 results with no disclosed salaries and willingToSponsorOnly disabled = $0.90 on the Free plan.

10,000 results with no disclosed salaries and willingToSponsorOnly disabled = $9.00 on the Free plan.

The Apify Free plan includes $5 of monthly platform usage credit. At the Free-plan job-result price, that credit covers 5,555 job-result events before additional priced events.

You pay only for the events listed above. This Actor does not use the Pay per event + usage option, so compute, proxy traffic and storage are not billed separately.

How to use

1. Enter one or more keyword strings in searchQueries.
2. Add an optional location and countryCode.
3. Choose API filters such as sort, workFromHome, employmentType and postedDate.
4. Set post-fetch filters such as remoteOnly, easyApplyOnly, willingToSponsorOnly, titleKeyword or locationKeyword.
5. Run the Actor and review the dataset; each query runs independently.
6. Schedule repeated runs through Apify Schedules, starting with daily runs for a job-listing workflow.

Example input:

{
  "searchQueries": ["python developer", "data engineer"],
  "location": "San Francisco, CA",
  "maxItems": 200,
  "sort": "relevance",
  "workFromHome": false,
  "employmentType": "CONTRACTS",
  "postedDate": "ONE_WEEK",
  "remoteOnly": false,
  "easyApplyOnly": false,
  "willingToSponsorOnly": false
}

The default proxy group is Apify RESIDENTIAL through proxyConfiguration. No buyer proxy credentials, Dice login or API key are required. Export the dataset as JSON or CSV, or read it through the Apify dataset API.

Input parameters

Parameter	What it does	Default
searchQueries	Keyword queries run independently and combined.	No value; provide one or more.
location	Dice location filter; blank keeps US-wide results.	Blank
countryCode	Two-letter country code.	US
maxItems	Maximum jobs, divided equally across queries (maxItems ÷ number of queries per query). 0 means no cap. A value smaller than the number of queries also disables the cap, so keep it at least as large as the number of queries.	100
sort	relevance or newest first with date.	relevance
workFromHome	API filter for Dice work-from-home jobs.	false
employmentType	FULLTIME, PARTTIME, CONTRACTS or THIRD_PARTY; blank keeps all.	Blank
postedDate	ONE_DAY, THREE_DAYS, ONE_WEEK, TWO_WEEKS or ONE_MONTH; blank keeps all.	Blank
titleKeyword	Case-insensitive post-fetch title substring filter.	Blank
locationKeyword	Case-insensitive post-fetch location substring filter.	Blank
remoteOnly	Keeps normalized remote_type equal to remote.	false
easyApplyOnly	Keeps jobs with Dice Easy Apply enabled.	false
willingToSponsorOnly	Keeps jobs where the employer indicates visa sponsorship willingness.	false
proxyConfiguration	Configures the Apify proxy used for requests.	Apify RESIDENTIAL group
disableUsageStats	Disables the run summary described in Usage statistics.	false

Limits and edge cases

Condition	What you see	What to do
searchQueries is empty or absent	The Actor logs no queries, writes error: "no_queries" to the run OUTPUT, and produces no dataset rows.	Add one or more non-empty queries.
A query returns no jobs	It is logged with zero results and added to failedQueries with no_results; no result charge is created.	Broaden the query or relax location or date filters.
A query encounters a fetch or HTTP error	It is added to failedQueries; other queries continue and earlier rows remain.	Review the run output and retry.
Post-fetch filters exclude rows	Fewer rows may be pushed than the API returned; charges apply to pushed rows.	Increase maxItems or relax filters.
Salary is not disclosed or is a normalized non-salary value	salary is null; the cleaned value may remain in salary_raw.	Inspect salary_raw.
Remote-work signals are absent or inconclusive	remote_type can be null; otherwise it is inferred from Dice fields and text.	Treat it as a classification and use remoteOnly for strict remote rows.
maxItems is divided across queries	Each query gets maxItems ÷ number of queries. If maxItems is smaller than the number of queries, the per-query cap becomes 0 and the cap is disabled.	Keep maxItems at least as large as the number of queries.
Several queries match the same job	Deduplication is per query only, so a job matched by several queries is pushed and charged once for each match.	Use distinct, non-overlapping queries.
Full job descriptions are needed	Full job descriptions are not available; search results provide only a teaser in summary, and the detail API requires authentication and is not used.	Use the summary and the job url.

FAQ

How much does it cost to scrape Dice tech jobs?

See the plan-labelled event prices in Pricing. On the Free plan, 1,000 results with no disclosed salaries and sponsorship filtering disabled cost $0.90.

What happens if a Dice query returns zero results?

The Actor logs 0 results, adds the query to failedQueries with no_results, and continues. No result charge is created for that query.

What should I do if a query is not working?

Check the run output for failedQueries, then retry with a broader keyword, different location or fewer filters. A query-level fetch error does not stop other queries.

Is using public Dice data legal for my use case?

The Actor extracts public search results from Dice.com through its public search API. Source terms and applicable law depend on your use case, so review the relevant terms and laws before using the data; this Actor does not provide a legal guarantee.

Usage statistics

This Actor creates a small, content-free summary at the end of each run, used only to monitor reliability and improve this Actor. No input values, credentials or scraped data are sent.

A copy of the exact record for your run is saved as USAGE_STATS in your own Apify key-value store.

To opt out, set disableUsageStats to true in the input. Nothing is sent then.
