❓ FAQ

Do I need a Workana account or API key? No. Pick a language and run — no login, no cookies, no key.

Which language has the most projects? Spanish (es) by far, since Workana is Latin America's largest freelance marketplace. Portuguese and English editions have fewer.

Does the budget come as a number? Budgets are returned exactly as posted — a fixed-price range (e.g. "USD 100 - 250") or an hourly rate (e.g. "Less than USD 15 / hour"). The isHourly flag tells you which.

Do I get the client's full name? No. Workana shows client names as initials, so authorName is a short label. You still get the client's country, rating and verified-payment signal.

Can I filter by category, skill or country? Yes — apply the filters on Workana, copy the URL, and paste it into Start URLs.

How many projects can I get? Up to a few hundred per language edition per run (anonymous browsing is capped near 100 pages of ~9 projects each). Narrow with a keyword or filter URL to reach the projects you care about, and use maxItems / maxPagesPerList to control volume.

What export formats are supported? JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML table, RSS, and the Apify API. Connect to Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, Slack, webhooks or an MCP server.

Is the data structured and clean? Yes. Each project is a flat, typed JSON object, de-duplicated by slug, with bid counts parsed to numbers and skills as a clean list.
