🚀 Quick Start

Method 1: Copy & Paste Upwork URLs (Recommended)

The easiest is to use search_urls - simply copy any Upwork search URL from your browser and paste it directly. This future-proof approach automatically adapts to Upwork's URL changes and captures all filter combinations. Just make sure the urls start with www.upwork.com/nx/search/jobs

{
  "search_urls": [
    "https://www.upwork.com/nx/search/jobs/?q=react%20developer&contractor_tier=2,3&hourly_rate=30-80",
    "https://www.upwork.com/nx/search/jobs/?q=python&t=1&amount=1000-4999,5000-&client_hires=10-"
  ],
  "limit": 100,
  "includeDetails": true
}

Configuration Options

These options apply to both methods:

Parameter	Description	Default
search_urls	Array of Upwork search URLs to scrape	empty
limit	Maximum jobs to extract per search	100
includeDetails	Get comprehensive job details (client info, similar jobs, etc.)	false

Proxies and anti-blocking are handled for you. There is no proxy setting.

Method 2: Custom filters

Prefer not to build a URL? Leave search_urls empty and describe the search with keywords and filters. The Apify input UI offers dropdowns with every valid option, and the same filters work over the API:

{
  "userQuery": "react developer",
  "contractorTier": ["IntermediateLevel", "ExpertLevel"],
  "hourlyRateMin": 30,
  "hourlyRateMax": 80,
  "workload": ["full_time"],
  "location": ["United States", "Germany"],
  "limit": 100
}

Filter	Description	Accepted values
userQuery	Search keywords	Any text
sort	Result order	recency (default), relevance+desc
category	Category or subcategory	Pick from the dropdown in the input UI (76 options)
contractorTier	Experience level	EntryLevel, IntermediateLevel, ExpertLevel
durationV3	Project length	week (under 1 month), month (1 to 3 months), semester (3 to 6 months), ongoing (over 6 months)
jobType	Job type	hourly, fixed
hourlyRateMin, hourlyRateMax	Hourly rate range in USD	Numbers, either side optional
budget	Fixed-price budget	0-99, 100-499, 500-999, 1000-4999, 5000-
fixedPriceMin, fixedPriceMax	Custom fixed-price range in USD	Numbers, either side optional. Ignored when budget is set
clientHires	Client history	0 (no hires), 1-9, 10- (10 or more)
workload	Hours per week	as_needed (less than 30 hrs/week), full_time (more than 30 hrs/week)
contractToHire	Only contract-to-hire roles	true
location	Client location	Pick from the dropdown: Upwork's own regions, subregions and countries, for example United States, Western Europe
timezone	Client time zone	Pick from the dropdown: Upwork's own list. Values are time zone names such as America/New_York, Europe/Berlin

Two things to know:

• URLs win. If search_urls contains at least one URL, the search comes from the URL and the custom filters are ignored.
• Ranges pick the job type. A fixed-price budget on its own returns fixed-price jobs, and an hourly rate on its own returns hourly jobs. Set both, or choose jobType yourself, to get both kinds.

Only new jobs and job age

Two options work with both search URLs and custom filters:

Option	What it does	Default
onlyNewJobs	Skips jobs that earlier runs of the same search already delivered	false
maxJobAgeHours	Only jobs posted within this many hours, for example 24	empty

{
  "search_urls": ["https://www.upwork.com/nx/search/jobs/?q=javascript"],
  "limit": 100,
  "onlyNewJobs": true
}

• Made for schedules. Run the search every hour with onlyNewJobs and each run delivers only jobs posted since the last one. The first run delivers up to limit jobs as usual.
• You pay only for new jobs. A run with nothing new delivers nothing and costs nothing.
• Newest first. Both options sort results by newest, whatever the URL or sort says, and stop as soon as they reach jobs that are too old or already delivered.
• Same search, same memory. A search is remembered by its keywords and filters. Changing a filter starts a new search; changing limit or includeDetails does not.
• Where it is stored. Delivered job IDs are kept in your own Apify account, in the key-value store upwork-job-scraper-state. Delete the store to start over.

💰 Pricing

Pay only for the jobs you get. No monthly fee, no start fee, and platform usage is included.

What you get	Price	Per 1,000 jobs
A job	$0.001	$1.00
A job with full details	$0.001 + $0.001	$2.00

• The details add-on is charged only for jobs that come back with details. Upwork hides the details of private listings, and those cost the plain $0.001.
• A run that returns nothing costs nothing.
• Set Maximum charge per run in the Apify Console for a hard ceiling. The scraper stops cleanly when it is reached.
