## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

## Remote Jobs Aggregator API

**Aggregate remote job listings from RemoteOK, Remotive, and We Work Remotely — no scraping, no proxy, instant results.**

A unified API for remote work opportunities. Fetches from 3 major remote job boards simultaneously, normalizes the data, and delivers clean, searchable results.

### Features

- 🌍 **Multi-Source** — RemoteOK API + Remotive API + We Work Remotely RSS
- 🔍 **Keyword Search** — Search by job title, company, or tag across all sources
- 🏷️ **Tag Filtering** — Filter by tags like `python`, `react`, `full-time`
- 📅 **Latest Jobs** — Get the newest postings from all boards
- 🔗 **Direct URLs** — Link to original job postings for application

### Actions

| Action | Input | Description |
|--------|-------|-------------|
| `getLatest` | `maxResults` | Latest N jobs from all sources |
| `searchJobs` | `query`, `tags`, `maxResults` | Search across all boards |
| `getBySource` | `source`, `maxResults` | Jobs from a specific board |

### Example Input

```json
{
  "action": "searchJobs",
  "query": "python",
  "tags": "remote,full-time",
  "maxResults": 10
}
````

### Example Output

```json
{
  "success": true,
  "action": "searchJobs",
  "timestamp": "2026-05-01T12:00:00Z",
  "data": {
    "found": true,

# 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 = {
    "query": "python",
    "tags": "python,remote"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("delightful_unicorn/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);
});

    "tags": "python,remote",
}

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

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print("💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/" + run["defaultDatasetId"])
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
