## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Glassdoor Jobs Scraper (search, salary estimates, ratings)

Glassdoor job search results as flat rows, including what only Glassdoor has: the employer's rating and the salary estimate (p10 / median / p90 with period, currency and whether the employer provided it). Search by keyword and location, or paste any Glassdoor search URL with your filters. Monitor mode on a saved Task returns only new jobs since the last run, with optional webhook / Telegram summary. For recruiters, job boards, salary research and job seekers.

### What you get

`listingId`, `url`, `title`, `company`, `companyShort`, `employerId`, `employerRating`, `location`, `locationType`, `salaryMin`, `salaryMedian`, `salaryMax`, `salaryPeriod`, `salaryCurrency`, `salarySource`, `easyApply`, `sponsored`, `ageInDays`, `postedAt`, `descriptionSnippet`, `attributes[]` (skills, seniority, schedule), `occupation`, `normalizedTitle`, `logoUrl`, `keyword`, `searchLocation`, `page`, `rank`, `scrapedAt`.

### Input

- `searches`: `[{"keyword": "...", "location": "..."}]` (+ `remoteOnly`, `postedWithinDays`), or `searchUrls`.
- `maxItems`; `mode: monitor` for alerts.

### Pricing

| Event | Price |
|---|---|
| result | $0.001 per job ($1 per 1,000) |
| monitor-check | $0.005 per monitor run |
| change | $0.001 per new/changed job |

Charged only for jobs actually pushed. Glassdoor serves search pages only to residential IPs; Apify bills that proxy traffic on top (about 1 MB per page of 30 jobs).

### Limits

- **30 jobs per search.** Glassdoor's deeper pages are loaded client-side for logged-in sessions only; logged-out page 2 repeats page 1. Run several narrower searches (location, `postedWithinDays`, `remoteOnly`, title variants) instead — duplicates across searches are never charged.
- Job detail pages are not opened: the full description and apply link are not included (the `url` opens the listing on Glassdoor).
- Company reviews are not included.

### Changelog

- 0.1: initial release — search, salary estimates, monitor mode.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "searches": [
        {
            "keyword": "python developer",
            "location": "Austin, TX"
        }
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("datahamster/glassdoor-jobs").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.

run_input = { "searches": [{
            "keyword": "python developer",
            "location": "Austin, TX",

print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "searches": [
    {
      "keyword": "python developer",
      "location": "Austin, TX"
    }
  ]
}' |
apify call datahamster/glassdoor-jobs --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,datahamster/glassdoor-jobs"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
