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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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 ## Bayt Scraper Search job listings across the Gulf and the wider Middle East. One clean row per job with employer, city, career level and posting date. No login and no API key. ### What it does - **Ten country sites in one actor**, all returning the same fields, plus an option to search every country at once. - **Exact posting time** on every row, not just a "3 days ago" label, so you can sort and filter properly. - **Employer on every row**, including listings posted through recruiters and listings where the employer stays anonymous. - **Pay when it is stated**, parsed into `salaryMin`, `salaryMax` and a period so you can sort by it. - **Career level and experience** split into separate fields. - **Role summary** for each listing, so you can screen without opening every job. Listings turn over daily, so schedule the run to build a hiring dataset over time. Common uses: hiring and market research, salary benchmarking, recruitment lead lists, tracking which employers are growing, and building a jobs dataset for the region. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `searchTerms` | array | Job titles, skills or keywords. One search per entry. | | `country` | string | `uae`, `saudi-arabia`, `egypt`, `qatar`, `kuwait`, `bahrain`, `oman`, `jordan`, `lebanon`, `morocco`, or `international` for all. | | `sort` | string | `relevance` or `date`. | | `careerLevel` | string | Optional level filter, for example `Mid career`. | | `maxResultsPerTerm` | integer | Cap per term. Default 100, up to 5000. | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | Optional. Enable to spread requests across IPs. | #### Example input ```json { "searchTerms": ["accountant", "civil engineer"], "country": "uae", "sort": "date", "maxResultsPerTerm": 300 } ```` ### Output Each item is one job listing. ```json { "id": "5000001", "title": "Civil Engineer", "summary": "A short summary of the role as shown in the listing.", "company": "Acme Co", "companyUrl": "https://www.bayt.com/en/company/acme-co-1000001/", "companyLogo": "https://example.com/logo.png", "city": "Dubai", "country": "UAE", "countrySite": "uae", "salaryLabel": null, "salaryMin": null, "salaryMax": null, "salaryPeriod": null, "careerLevel": "Mid career", "experience": "3-5 Years of Experience", "citizenship": null, "postedAt": "2026-07-14T09:20:05Z", "postedAgo": "3 days ago", "url": "https://www.bayt.com/en/uae/jobs/civil-engineer-5000001/", "searchTerm": "civil engineer" } ``` ### Notes - No login and no API key. Enter your search terms and run. - Most employers in this market do not publish pay. Those rows keep every other field and return `null` for the pay numbers rather than a guess. - Career level, experience and citizenship are only filled when the listing states them. - Listings with no employer logo return `null` rather than the shared placeholder image. - Results are deduplicated across all your search terms, so a job matching two terms is delivered once and charged once. To improve our actors we collect anonymized usage telemetry (run stats and input patterns). No personal account data is collected. # Actor input Schema ## `searchTerms` (type: `array`): Job titles, skills or keywords. One search per entry. ## `country` (type: `string`): Which country site to search. ## `sort` (type: `string`): How to order results. ## `careerLevel` (type: `string`): Optional. Only return listings at this level, for example Mid career, Entry level, Management. Listings that do not state a level are left out when this is set. ## `maxResultsPerTerm` (type: `integer`): Cap per term. Default 100, up to 5000. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Residential proxy is required for this source and is enabled by default. Leaving it on is recommended. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchTerms": [ "accountant", "civil engineer" ], "country": "uae", "sort": "relevance", "careerLevel": "Mid career", "maxResultsPerTerm": 100, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `jobs` (type: `string`): No description # 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 '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "searchTerms": [ "accountant" ], "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("goat255/bayt-scraper").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) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
