## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## French Jobs Aggregator — WTTJ, HelloWork, France Travail, APEC, Meteojob, Service public

One search, six French job boards, one clean schema. The Actor queries **Welcome to the Jungle** (startups and large employers, 90 000+ offers), **HelloWork** (the largest private board), **France Travail** (the public employment service, including partner offers), **APEC** (executive positions), **Meteojob** and **Choisir le service public** (public-sector jobs, latest offers per département) with the same keywords, the same place and the same filters, then returns **normalised rows**: contract type, salary parsed into numbers, remote policy, city with postcode and département, GPS distance from the searched place, publication date, sector, skills, benefits. **Offers seen on several boards are merged** (`alsoOn`, `alsoOnUrls`).

Search **around a city with a radius** ("Marseille", "Paris 11e", "75011"), by **département** ("13", "Gironde") or by **region** ("Île-de-France"), all resolved through the French government geo API. Detail mode opens each HelloWork and France Travail offer for the **full description, experience, education, skills and employer size**.

### Who uses it

- **Recruitment agencies and staffing firms**: local market watch per trade and city, competitor postings, salary benchmarks.
- **HR tech, job aggregators, matching platforms**: a single French feed instead of four scrapers to maintain.
- **Training organisations and schools**: demand per skill and région to steer programmes.
- **Economic development bodies, chambers, journalists**: hiring dynamics by territory, contract mix, salaries.
- **AI agents and job-search assistants**: "CDI menuisier within 20 km of Marseille published this week, with salary".

Welcome to the Jungle rows add `remote` (full / partial / occasional / no), `benefits`, `education` and the offer summary with missions and profile. APEC rows carry the executive salary range and the offer excerpt.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `query` | string | Keywords (`menuisier`, `développeur python`). Empty = everything in the place. |
| `location` | string | City, postcode, département or region. |
| `radiusKm` | integer | Around a city (default 20). |
| `sources` | string\[] | `welcometothejungle`, `hellowork`, `francetravail`, `apec`, `meteojob`, `servicepublic` (default all). |
| `contractTypes` | string\[] | `CDI`, `CDD`, `interim`, `alternance`, `stage`, `freelance`, `temps-partiel`. |
| `remoteOnly` | boolean | Remote-flagged offers or mentioning télétravail. |
| `publishedWithinDays` | integer | Freshness filter. |
| `maxItemsPerSource` | integer | Default 100. |
| `maxItems` | integer | Default 300, 0 = unlimited. |
| `dedupe` | boolean | Merge the same offer across boards (default true). |
| `fetchDetails` | boolean | Full description and profile fields (HelloWork, France Travail, Meteojob). |

Examples:

```json
{ "query": "menuisier", "location": "Marseille", "radiusKm": 20, "contractTypes": ["CDI", "interim"], "fetchDetails": true }
```

```json
{ "query": "data engineer", "location": "Île-de-France", "sources": ["welcometothejungle", "apec"], "remoteOnly": true, "publishedWithinDays": 7 }
```

```json
{ "query": "", "location": "33", "contractTypes": ["alternance"], "maxItemsPerSource": 300, "maxItems": 0 }
```

### Pricing

Pay per event: one **job** event per exported offer, one **job detail** event per offer when `fetchDetails` is on, plus a small **Actor start** fee. The boards are read through their public pages and JSON endpoints: no browser, no residential proxies, runs finish in under a minute for a city search.

### Notes

- Public-sector offers come from the recruitment back-end's RSS feeds (the latest offers of the département or region, full description included); keywords are matched locally.
- Locations are resolved with the French government geo API (geo.api.gouv.fr); Welcome to the Jungle and France Travail get true geo filters, HelloWork gets the place name and distance, APEC is filtered on the offer coordinates.
- Contract filters are mapped to each board's own vocabulary; rows are also checked after normalisation.
- Salary numbers are parsed from the boards' text (`k€`, hourly, monthly, yearly) and kept next to the original text.
- Data is the boards' public offer content. Employers are named as published; anonymous offers have no `company`. Use the output in compliance with each board's terms.

# Actor input Schema

## MCP server setup

    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
