This Apify Actor extracts current public vacancies from the official Civil Service Jobs portal locally or on Apify Cloud. It uses a normal headless Chrome session, completes the site’s own public quick-check through the visible checkbox/Continue flow, reads the official search results, and enriches each row from its stable jobs.cgi?jcode=... detail page.
Modes
search: one bounded keyword/location search.searchMultiple: several keyword/location searches with stable job-code deduplication.single: onejobUrl,url, or numericjobId.multiple:jobUrls,urls, orjobIds.startUrls: official search or stable detail URLs.
Every detail row is identity-checked against its public reference/job code and is buffered until the required employer, location, and rich description fields are complete. Published values are omitted when absent; no placeholder, fabricated application URL, diagnostic dataset row, proxy, fingerprint spoofing, or CAPTCHA/WAF bypass is used.
Local commands
npm install --no-audit --no-fundnpm testnpm run checknpx --yes apify validate-schema .actor/input_schema.jsonnpx --yes apify validate-schema .actor/dataset_schema.jsonnpx --yes apify validate-schema .actor/key_value_store_schema.jsonnpx --yes apify-cli run --purge --input-file INPUT.jsonnpm run validate
The Actor writes jobs only to the default dataset. RUN_SUMMARY, RUN_DIAGNOSTICS, RUN_SKIPS, RUN_HEALTH, RUN_METADATA, and RUN_REQUESTS are KVS-only run state. A blocked or failed public route exits nonzero with zero dataset rows and structured diagnostics.
Input examples
{"mode": "search","query": "policy advisor","location": "London","maxItems": 3,"maxCandidates": 12,"maxPages": 1,"maxRequests": 24}
Stable detail URLs look like:
https://www.civilservicejobs.service.gov.uk/csr/jobs.cgi?jcode=2010702
The Apply now control on current adverts is an official login form rather than a final external destination. The output records that source-backed form action and explicitly marks finalDestinationPublished: false; it never invents a destination.
