## 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.

## SmartRecruiters Job Board Scraper — Company Hiring Signals 🚀

**foXLabs hiring series:** [Greenhouse](https://apify.com/foxlabs/greenhouse-job-board-scraper) · [Lever](https://apify.com/foxlabs/lever-job-board-scraper) · [Ashby](https://apify.com/foxlabs/ashby-job-board-scraper) · [Workday](https://apify.com/foxlabs/workday-job-board-scraper) · [Personio](https://apify.com/foxlabs/personio-job-board-scraper) · [Teamtailor](https://apify.com/foxlabs/teamtailor-job-board-scraper)

🎉 Turn any company's SmartRecruiters board into clean, structured hiring data — no login, no API key, one row per open role.
Built for recruiters, sales & competitive-intelligence teams, and anyone scoring hiring intent at scale.

### 🔍 What is the SmartRecruiters Job Board Scraper — and when should you use it?

SmartRecruiters runs the careers site for large global employers (Bosch, Western Digital and more). Give this actor a company identifier (`BoschGroup`) and it returns every open role with rich classification — department, team, city, country, region, industry, experience level — plus the **full description**.

**Use it when you need:** every open role at a target company, hiring-intent signals (which functions a company is growing), a recruiter sourcing list across many companies, or a clean read of a competitor's headcount plans — from SmartRecruiters' public Posting API, no key.

**Use something else when:** the company doesn't run on SmartRecruiters. Point the matching actor at its ATS instead — every actor in the **foXLabs hiring series** emits the **same schema**, so their outputs concatenate into one hiring-intent table: [Greenhouse](https://apify.com/foxlabs/greenhouse-job-board-scraper) · [Lever](https://apify.com/foxlabs/lever-job-board-scraper) · [Ashby](https://apify.com/foxlabs/ashby-job-board-scraper) · [Workday](https://apify.com/foxlabs/workday-job-board-scraper) · [Personio](https://apify.com/foxlabs/personio-job-board-scraper) · [Teamtailor](https://apify.com/foxlabs/teamtailor-job-board-scraper).

### 🤖 Use with AI agents

**Already on the Apify MCP server?** Ask for this Actor by name: `foxlabs/smartrecruiters-job-board-scraper`.

**Your agent can pay for its own runs.** This Actor is pay-per-event with agentic payments, so an agent can discover it, run it and settle the bill over **x402 (USDC on Base)** or **Skyfire** — no Apify account or API token of its own. Billing is per delivered role, never for errors.

Otherwise paste this into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP-enabled assistant:

```
I want to pull a company's open roles using the Apify Actor `foxlabs/smartrecruiters-job-board-scraper`.
Input: `queries` is a list of a SmartRecruiters company identifier (case-sensitive, e.g. `BoschGroup`). `maxResultsPerQuery` caps rows per company (default 200).
Start with: {"queries":["BoschGroup"],"maxResultsPerQuery":50}
Ask me which companies to track, run the Actor, then summarise the roles as a table.
```

The machine-readable API, MCP config and OpenAPI definition live at `apify.com/foxlabs/smartrecruiters-job-board-scraper.md`.

### 📋 Overview

Everything you need to turn a SmartRecruiters careers board into clean, structured data — role details, metadata and hiring signals — in one actor, with no login, cookies or API key.

**Why teams pick this actor:**

- ✅ **Whole board in one call** — every open role, no per-tool stitching.
- ⚡ **Slug- or URL-native** — paste what you already have; the actor resolves the rest.
- 📄 **Complete descriptions** — full role text, HTML stripped to clean plain text.
- 🔗 **Same schema across the series** — join with the six sibling ATS actors on `companyBoard`.
- 💰 **Pay only for results** — per-row pricing, empty/failed lookups never billed.
- 🤖 **Agent-ready** — MCP + x402 agentic payments.
- 🌍 **Richest classification in the series** — city, country, region, industry and experience level on every role.
- 📄 **Full descriptions** — fetched per posting from the detail endpoint.

### 🎬 Quick Start

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/foxlabs~smartrecruiters-job-board-scraper/runs?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"queries":["BoschGroup"],"maxResultsPerQuery":50}'
```

### 🚀 Getting Started (3 steps)

1. **Choose your companies** — a SmartRecruiters company identifier (case-sensitive, e.g. `BoschGroup`).
2. **Set the cap** — `maxResultsPerQuery` limits rows per company (default 200).
3. **Run and export** — a clean dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel.

### 📥 Input

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "BoschGroup",
    "westerndigital"
  ],
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 200,
  "maxConcurrency": 5,
  "includeRaw": false
}
```

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `queries` | array | a SmartRecruiters company identifier (case-sensitive, e.g. `BoschGroup`). |
| `maxResultsPerQuery` | integer | Caps rows per company (default 200). |
| `maxConcurrency` | integer | How many companies to fetch at once. |
| `includeRaw` | boolean | Attach the source's untouched record under `raw`. |
| `requestDelayMs` | integer | Politeness delay between requests. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Optional. |

### 📤 Output

One row per open role, saved to the dataset.

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `companyName` | Company name |
| `companyBoard` | Company identifier — join key |
| `jobId` | Posting ID |
| `jobTitle` | Role title |
| `department` | Department (where set) |
| `team` | Function |
| `location` | Full location line |
| `city` | City |
| `countryName` | Country |
| `region` | Region |
| `latitude` | Latitude (where published) |
| `longitude` | Longitude (where published) |
| `isRemote` | Remote flag |
| `employmentType` | Employment type |
| `industry` | Industry |
| `experienceLevel` | Experience level |
| `postedAt` | Released date (ISO) |
| `description` | Full description (job + qualifications), HTML stripped |
| `applyUrl` | Apply link |
| `sourceUrl` | Public posting URL |

Every row also carries `query`, `scrapedAt`, and — when a lookup fails — an `error`.

### 💼 Use cases

**1. Global hiring intent**
*Input:* company identifiers, weekly. *Output:* roles by function + geography. *Use:* track where and what a global employer is hiring.

**2. Geographic expansion signals**
*Input:* target companies. *Output:* roles by city/country/region. *Use:* spot new-market hiring early.

**3. Recruiter sourcing**
*Input:* several identifiers. *Output:* roles + full descriptions + apply links. *Use:* source across enterprise employers.

### 🔗 Integration

**JavaScript / Node.js**

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('foxlabs/smartrecruiters-job-board-scraper').call({ queries: ['BoschGroup'], maxResultsPerQuery: 50 });
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items[0]);
```

**Python**

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient('YOUR_TOKEN')
run = client.actor('foxlabs/smartrecruiters-job-board-scraper').call(run_input={'queries': ['BoschGroup'], 'maxResultsPerQuery': 50})
for item in client.dataset(run['defaultDatasetId']).iterate_items():
    print(item)
```

**Automation (n8n / Zapier / Make):** schedule or webhook → HTTP request to the actor API → handle the JSON dataset → push to a sheet, CRM or dashboard.

### 📊 Pricing

Pay-per-event: **$0.002 per delivered role**. Empty or failed lookups are never billed. [View current pricing.](https://apify.com/foxlabs/smartrecruiters-job-board-scraper)

### ❓ FAQ

**Do I need an account, login or API key?** No. This reads SmartRecruiters' public Posting API — no key.

**What do I search by?** A SmartRecruiters company identifier (case-sensitive, e.g. `BoschGroup`).

**How current is the data?** Every run queries the source live, so results are as fresh as the board itself.

**Can I export to CSV / Excel / JSON?** Yes — directly from the Apify dataset.

**What happens on a bad input or empty board?** You get a row with your `query` and an `error` — nothing is silently dropped, and you're not charged.

**Is scraping this legal?** It reads a public job feed the company publishes for syndication — job data, not personal data. See below.

### 🐛 Troubleshooting

- **"… has no public careers site"** — the identifier is case-sensitive — copy it exactly from the careers URL.
- **Slower than expected** — descriptions are fetched per posting; lower `maxResultsPerQuery` for a quick scan.
- **An error row** — the identifier is wrong or the site is private.

### ⚠️ Trademark

### ⚖️ Is it legal to scrape this data?

This actor reads only publicly published job-posting data — no private or personal user data. Your results can still contain personal data (e.g. a name in a description); personal data is protected by the GDPR and similar laws, so only process it with a legitimate basis. See Apify's blog post on the legality of web scraping.

### Changelog

#### 0.4.1 — 2026-09-06

- **Added job coordinates.** New `latitude` / `longitude` from the posting location (~78% of roles), enabling map- and radius-based territory work alongside the existing city / region / country.

#### 0.4 — 2026-09-06

- **Enabled AI-agent payments (x402).** Standby mode was removed because Apify's x402 agentic-payment eligibility requires it off; the actor now runs as a standard pay-per-event run that agents can discover, run and pay for over x402 (USDC on Base) or Skyfire without an Apify account. Batch and MCP usage are unchanged.

#### 0.3 — 2026-09-05

- Output schema linked in `actor.json` (`output` field) so the Store shows the Output tab.
- **Standby mode (real-time API).** The actor now also runs as an always-on HTTP API: `GET /search?query=<query>&maxResults=N` returns open roles as JSON, billed per role (pay-per-event). Batch runs are unchanged. Endpoint and OpenAPI schema appear in the Standby tab.

#### 0.2 — 2026-09-05

- **Full job descriptions added.** The list endpoint omits the description; the actor now fetches each posting's detail (job description + qualifications, HTML stripped). One extra request per posting, bounded by `maxResultsPerQuery`.
- **Dead columns removed.** `seniority` and `salary` (never provided; `experienceLevel` already carries seniority) and the redundant `updatedAt` (duplicated `postedAt`) are dropped. Rich fields kept: `team`, `city`, `countryName`, `region`, `industry`, `experienceLevel`, `employmentType`.

#### 0.1

- Initial release: postings listing from any SmartRecruiters careers site (title, team, location, classification, dates).

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

Company identifiers (`BoschGroup`, `westerndigital`) or careers URLs. The identifier is case-sensitive — copy it from the careers URL.

## `maxResultsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

How many rows a single query may produce.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many queries to run at the same time. Lower it if the source throttles you.

## `includeRaw` (type: `boolean`):

Attach the source's untouched response under `raw`. Useful when you need a field this actor does not map.

## `requestDelayMs` (type: `integer`):

Politeness delay against a public source. Raise it for large runs.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional. The SmartRecruiters posting API answers datacenter IPs directly.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "BoschGroup",
    "westerndigital",
