## 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.

Monitor up to ten public Ashby job boards and return a current job snapshot or a feed of new, updated, and confirmed closed roles. Every result retains the public application link when it is published.

### 🎯 What it does

The Actor reads declared public Ashby boards. A full run returns the current job list. Changes-only mode compares a complete board scan with saved state and returns meaningful hiring changes.

### 👥 Who it is for

- Talent-intelligence and recruiting-operations teams.
- Job-data products adding Ashby board coverage.
- Researchers studying public hiring activity.

### 🧾 Input

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Public Ashby boards | Array | Yes | One to ten Ashby board slugs or public board URLs. |
| Published after | Date | No | Keeps roles published on or after this date when a board provides it. |
| Output mode | Choice | No | `full` returns the snapshot. `changesOnly` returns safe change events. |
| Maximum records returned | Number | No | Maximum rows written to the dataset. |

### 📊 Output

| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| changeType | String | `SNAPSHOT`, `NEW`, `UPDATED`, or `CLOSED`. |
| title | String | Published job title. |
| board | String | Requested Ashby board. |
| location | String | Published location when available. |
| department | String | Published department when available. |
| applicationUrl | URL | Published application link when available. |
| publishedAt | Date | Published date when supplied by the board. |

### 💡 Good to know

- This Actor reads public Ashby boards only.
- A closed role is emitted only after a complete board scan confirms its absence.
- A first complete changes-only run creates the baseline.

### 💰 Pricing

This Actor uses pay per result. Empty runs do not create result charges. Start with one known public board to check the output before scheduling a larger watchlist.

### ❓ FAQ

**Can I paste a company careers page?** Use the board slug or the public `jobs.ashbyhq.com` board URL.

**Will every job have compensation?** No. Compensation is included only when the public board publishes it.

**Why are closed roles missing from a first run?** The first complete changes-only run creates the baseline.

**Can I monitor several boards?** Yes. Add up to ten public boards.
