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). # README ## Lagou Tech Jobs Scraper: China IT Recruitment Data **Get live Chinese IT and technology job listings (including structured monthly salaries, candidate requirements, and rich corporate outlines) ready for your spreadsheet in under 60 seconds.** Get vacancy titles, standardized CNY salary ranges, prefecture locations, candidate education requirements, and company financing stages for any keyword across China. --- ### What can you do with it? * **I am an international technical recruiter** sourcing pre-vetted software developers, AI engineers, and UI designers in China's major tech hubs (like Beijing and Shenzhen) to expand our offshore placement pipelines. * **I am a B2B SaaS product developer** extracting company sizes, financing levels (e.g. Series A, B, or IPO), and technology industries to build highly qualified lead generation targets. * **I am an ATS vendor or job board manager** backfilling local developer vacancies with complete job descriptions and structured requirements (education, experience, locations) directly into my database. --- ### How to use it #### Store Quick Start 1.
