FAQ

Do I need an Indeed account or API key?

No. This scraper works without any login, API key, or Indeed account. It uses residential proxies (included in usage costs) to access Indeed job listings.

What is the difference between searchQueries and startUrls?

searchQueries are simple text queries like "nurse in Chicago" that the scraper converts into Indeed search URLs. startUrls are full Indeed URLs that you copy from your browser after applying specific filters (experience level, date posted, job type, etc.).

How many jobs can I scrape?

Each search query typically yields 40-50 unique job listings. To collect more jobs, add multiple search queries — for example, 3 queries can yield 100-150 unique listings. The maximum per run is 1,000 jobs.

Why did the scraper return fewer jobs than expected?

Indeed uses anti-bot protection that can limit automated access. The scraper uses multiple strategies to maximize results, but the actual number may vary between runs. For best results, use specific search queries with location.

What is the remoteWork field?

Possible values include REMOTE_ALWAYS (fully remote), REMOTE_HYBRID (partially remote), or empty (on-site/not specified).

What are the salary fields?

salaryMin and salaryMax are numeric values. salaryType indicates the period: YEARLY, HOURLY, MONTHLY, or WEEKLY. salaryText is the human-readable format like "$150,000 - $220,000 a year". Not all listings include salary data.

Can I search for jobs in specific countries?

This scraper uses indeed.com (US). For other countries, provide a direct startUrls from the country-specific Indeed site (e.g. indeed.co.uk).

Are duplicate listings removed?

Yes. Each job has a unique jobKey. If the same job appears across multiple searches or search variations, it's only included once in the output.

How fast is the scraper?

A typical search for 50 jobs completes in about 2 minutes.
