## 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

## Remote Jobs Aggregator: Remote OK, Himalayas, We Work Remotely, Jobicy, Arbeitnow

Get **one clean feed of remote jobs** from the biggest remote job boards in a single run:

| Source | What it adds |
|---|---|
| **Remote OK** | Tech & startup remote jobs, salary ranges |
| **Himalayas** | 100,000+ remote jobs, seniority, location & timezone restrictions |
| **We Work Remotely** | One of the largest remote job boards |
| **Jobicy** | Remote jobs with salary and industry |
| **Arbeitnow** | European jobs (remote and on-site, visa sponsorship) |

All results are normalized into the same fields: title, company, logo, allowed locations, job type, seniority, categories, tags, **salary min/max/currency**, posting date, job URL and full description.

### Use cases

- **Remote job boards & newsletters**: populate a niche board ("remote Python jobs", "remote design jobs in Europe") and keep it fresh with a daily schedule.
- **Job seekers & career coaches**: daily alerts filtered by keyword, location and salary.
- **Recruiters & researchers**: track which companies hire remotely and what they pay.
- **AI agents**: structured remote-job data ready for matching and summarization.

### Input example

{
  "keywords": ["python", "data engineer"],
  "locations": ["Worldwide", "Europe"],
  "postedWithinDays": 3,
  "salaryOnly": false,

### Attribution & fair use

Every item includes the original job URL and an `attribution` field. The sources provide their public feeds on the condition that you **credit them and link to the original job URL** when you display jobs. Keep the `url`/`applyUrl` links pointing to the original posting.

### Pricing

Pay per job saved. Jobs that don't match your filters are free.

# 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 = {
    "keywords": [
        "developer"
    ],
    "maxJobsPerSource": 50
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("datanest-labs/remote-jobs-aggregator").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);
});

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {

    "maxJobsPerSource": 50,
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("datanest-labs/remote-jobs-aggregator").call(run_input=run_input)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "keywords": [
    "developer"
  ],
  "maxJobsPerSource": 50
}' |
apify call datanest-labs/remote-jobs-aggregator --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

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

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).
