## 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.

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

## YT Jobs Scraper - YouTube Jobs Board

Scrape **[ytjobs.co](https://ytjobs.co)**, the biggest jobs board of the YouTube industry - no login, no cookies. Get every open position (video editors, thumbnail designers, scriptwriters, channel managers, strategists, producers) with salary range, employment type, remote/on-site flag, full description, required skills and languages, plus rich stats about the hiring channel (subscribers, total views, video count, YouTube link).

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `role` | string | `all`, `video-editor`, `creative-director`, `thumbnail-designer`, `channel-manager`, `youtube-strategist`, `scriptwriter`, `youtube-producer`, `other` |
| `keyword` | string | Optional keyword matched against job title and channel name |
| `jobType` | string | `all`, `full-time` (salary per year), `part-time` (per hour), `per-project` |
| `locationType` | string | `all`, `remote`, `onsite`, `hybrid` |
| `includeDetails` | boolean | Fetch full description, skills, languages and dates for each job (default `true`) |
| `maxItems` | integer | Max jobs to return (max 600) |

Example:

```json
{
    "role": "video-editor",
    "jobType": "full-time",
    "maxItems": 50
}
```

### Common uses

- Alert feeds for creator-economy job seekers (new editor/scriptwriter openings)
- Market research on YouTube industry salaries by role and type
- Lead generation: channels that are hiring are channels investing in content
- Talent agencies and recruiters monitoring demand by niche
- Datasets for creator-economy newsletters and reports

### Pricing

Pay per result: you are only charged for jobs actually returned.

### Notes

Salary semantics follow the board: full-time salaries are per year, part-time per hour, per-project per project. Channel stats (`subscribers`, `totalViews`) come abbreviated from the source (e.g. `18.4K`, `8.94M`).

  "jobType": "all",

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,gio21/ytjobs-scraper"

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
