## 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.

# README

## Remote Jobs Aggregator — Remotive, RemoteOK, Himalayas, Jobicy, Arbeitnow & WeWorkRemotely

Search six of the biggest remote-job boards in one run. One query returns deduplicated remote roles from **Remotive, RemoteOK, Arbeitnow, Himalayas, Jobicy and WeWorkRemotely**, normalized into a single clean shape.

Every source here is an **official, public feed** — the same JSON and RSS these boards publish for anyone to consume. No login, no rendered-HTML scraping, no proxies. That keeps runs fast and cheap.

### Why aggregate

The same remote role gets posted to several boards under slightly different formatting. Scraping each board separately means paying for the overlap and cleaning it up yourself. This Actor merges those duplicates into one record that lists every board the job appears on — so you can apply through whichever has the fewest applicants.

### Sources

| Board | Feed | Strong for |
|---|---|---|
| Remotive | Official JSON API | Curated remote roles, categorized |
| RemoteOK | Official JSON API | Tech and startup roles, tags |
| Arbeitnow | Official JSON API | European and visa-friendly roles |
| Himalayas | Official JSON API | Salary and seniority metadata |
| Jobicy | Official JSON API | Industry and level tagging |
| WeWorkRemotely | Public RSS | Long-running, high-signal board |

### What you get for each job

- Job title, company and location
- Which boards it was found on, with a direct apply link to each
- Category, employment type and seniority where the board provides them
- Salary, normalized across boards that publish it
- Function inferred from the title (Engineering, Sales, Design, …)
- Tags and a description snippet
- Posted date, normalized to one format

```json
{
  "title": "Senior Software Engineer",
  "company": "LawnStarter",
  "location": "Mexico",
  "remote": true,
  "category": "Software Development",
  "jobType": "full_time",
  "functionGuess": "Engineering",
  "salaryText": "$80k - $100k",
  "tags": ["python", "django", "aws"],
  "sources": ["remotive", "remoteok"],
  "allLinks": {
    "remotive": "https://remotive.com/remote-jobs/...",
    "remoteok": "https://remoteok.com/remote-jobs/..."
  },
  "postedDate": "2026-07-12"
}
````

### Input

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `keywords` | Only keep jobs whose title contains one of these words, e.g. `python`, `designer` |
| `sources` | Which boards to search. All six by default |
| `category` | Optional category slug for boards that support it (e.g. `software-dev`, `design`) |
| `locationFilter` | Only keep jobs whose location contains this text, e.g. `USA`, `Europe`, `Worldwide` |
| `maxJobsPerSource` | Cap per board |
| `deduplicate` | Merge the same role across boards into one record. On by default |

```json
{
  "keywords": ["python", "backend"],
  "sources": ["remotive", "remoteok", "himalayas", "jobicy"],
  "locationFilter": "Worldwide"
}
```

### Use it with Claude or ChatGPT

Every Apify Actor is exposed over MCP, so you can wire this into Claude Desktop, Claude Code or any MCP client and ask: *"find me remote Python jobs paying over $100k."* It also has a REST API and works with LangChain, n8n, Make and Zapier.

### Tips

- Run it on a schedule and diff the datasets to catch new remote roles the day they post — before the applicant count climbs.
- `sources` on each record tells you where a job is cross-posted; apply through the board with the least competition.
- Combine `keywords` and `locationFilter` to build a tight, single-topic feed.

### Be a good citizen

These feeds are public because the boards want their jobs discovered and syndicated. Cache your results, run on a sensible schedule, and don't poll every minute. Play nicely and these stay open.

# Actor input Schema

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

Only keep jobs whose title contains one of these words, e.g. 'python', 'designer', 'marketing'. Leave empty for all remote jobs.

## `sources` (type: `array`):

Which remote-job boards to search. All six by default.

## `category` (type: `string`):

Optional category slug for the boards that support it, e.g. 'software-dev', 'design', 'marketing'. Ignored by boards that don't.

## `locationFilter` (type: `string`):

Only keep jobs whose location contains this text, e.g. 'USA', 'Europe', 'Worldwide'. Leave empty for all.

## `maxJobsPerSource` (type: `integer`):

Cap on jobs fetched from each board.

## `deduplicate` (type: `boolean`):

The same role often appears on several boards. When on, those are merged into one record listing every source.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "keywords": [
    "python"
  ],
  "sources": [
    "remotive",
    "remoteok",
    "arbeitnow",

# 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": [
        "python"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("get_anything/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) => {
