## Pricing

from $0.40 / 1,000 job with details

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Workday Jobs Scraper: open jobs from any Workday career site, new jobs only

Paste the links of Workday career sites (`*.myworkdayjobs.com`, `*.myworkdaysite.com`) and get every open job as a clean row: title, exact posted date, all locations, country code, remote or hybrid, full or part time, requisition id, job link and the full description. Schedule it with **Only new jobs** and each run returns, and charges, only the jobs posted since the last run.

The actor reads public job postings from Workday-hosted career sites through the same public endpoints the career sites use themselves, with an honest user agent and no circumvention: no proxies, no browser, no login, no cookies, robots.txt checked for every site. Workday hosts these sites for the employers, so please check the employer's own career-site terms before heavy use.

**USD 0.50 per 1,000 jobs with details** (USD 0.20 per 1,000 with list fields only). Jobs you filter out, jobs you have already seen in only-new mode and career sites that fail are free.

### What people use it for

- **Recruiters and staffing agencies.** Track open requisitions at named enterprise employers (many of the largest employers hire through Workday) and get a daily feed of new roles with the exact posting date.
- **Sales signals from hiring.** An account that opens 20 data roles this month is investing in data. Pull the new jobs of your target accounts every morning and send them to your CRM, Clay or Slack.
- **Job boards and newsletters.** Direct-from-employer postings with real dates, country codes and a link to the employer's own job page.
- **AI agents and analysts.** Count openings by employer, country and job family over time, or feed fresh postings to an agent.

### Why only new jobs matters

A daily watch of 200 Workday employers with about 1,000 open jobs each is 200,000 jobs per run. Re-reading all of them every day at USD 2 per 1,000 costs about USD 400 a day. With **Only new jobs** this actor reads the list pages, skips every job it has seen before without even opening it, and charges only the new ones: about 300 new jobs a day is USD 0.15.

### Sample output

A real row (description shortened):

```json
{
  "source": "workday",
  "company": "nvidia",
  "companyName": "NVIDIA USA",
  "jobId": "JR2026658",
  "title": "Senior Storage Infrastructure Software Engineer",
  "department": null,
  "team": null,
  "location": "US, CA, Santa Clara",
  "locations": ["US, CA, Santa Clara"],
  "workplaceType": null,
  "isRemote": false,
  "employmentType": "full_time",
  "compensation": null,
  "postedAt": "2026-10-06T00:00:00.000Z",
  "updatedAt": null,
  "jobUrl": "https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite/job/US-CA-Santa-Clara/Senior-Storage-Infrastructure-Software-Engineer_JR2026658",
  "applyUrl": "https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite/job/US-CA-Santa-Clara/Senior-Storage-Infrastructure-Software-Engineer_JR2026658",
  "descriptionText": "NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years ...",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-10-06T21:58:52.477Z",
  "tenant": "nvidia",
  "site": "NVIDIAExternalCareerSite",
  "careerSiteUrl": "https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite",
  "country": "United States of America",
  "countryCode": "US",
  "remoteType": null,
  "timeType": "Full time",
  "postedRelative": "Posted Today",
  "postedDate": "2026-10-06",
  "endDate": null,
  "locationCount": 1,
  "descriptionHash": "22674159d1f266b1",
  "status": "open",
  "firstSeenAt": null
}
```

The first 19 fields have the same names, meaning and order as in our Greenhouse, Lever and Ashby job actors (and the same names as in our ATS jobs index), so you can merge their datasets. The Workday fields follow.

The run also writes a `SUMMARY` record to its key-value store, one entry per career site:

```json
{
  "careerSiteUrl": "https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite",
  "tenant": "nvidia",
  "site": "NVIDIAExternalCareerSite",
  "jobsOnSite": 2000,
  "listRequests": 2,
  "detailRequests": 30,
  "postingsRead": 40,
  "pushed": 30,
  "rejectedBy": {},
  "alreadySeen": 0,
  "cutByCap": 10,
  "detailFailed": 0,
  "closed": 0,
  "robotsTxt": "read"
}
```

Real runs on Apify, 2026-10-06: the default input returned 90 jobs with details from NVIDIA, Salesforce and Workday in 17 seconds. A first only-new run over Workday's own career site (380 jobs) returned 5 jobs and read all 19 list pages to remember the rest in 45 seconds; the next run found nothing new in 5 seconds and charged only the start.

### How to use it

1. Add career sites to **Workday career site URLs**, one per line. Any of these work:
   - the career site: `https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite`
   - with a locale: `https://salesforce.wd12.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/External_Career_Site`
   - a job link from the site: `https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite/job/US-CA-Santa-Clara/..._JR2026658`
   - the other Workday host: `https://wd5.myworkdaysite.com/recruiting/microchiphr/External`
   - a bare host, `https://salesforce.wd12.myworkdayjobs.com`, reads every career site its robots.txt lists (Salesforce lists 9)
2. Optionally narrow the results with keywords, locations, countries, job families, remote only and posted within N days.
3. Set **Max jobs per career site** and **Max jobs in total**. The log prints the highest possible charge before the first request.
4. Click **Start**, then export as CSV, JSON or Excel, or read the dataset through the Apify API.

**Finding the link.** Open the company's careers page and click any job. If the address contains `myworkdayjobs.com` or `myworkdaysite.com`, paste it as it is; the actor finds the career site in it. Companies that show Workday jobs inside their own website usually link out to the Workday page when you click Apply.

#### Job alerts on a schedule

1. Turn on **Only new jobs** and pick a **State key** (one per saved task, for example `sales-accounts`).
2. Save the input as a task and add a daily schedule.
3. Connect the results to email, Slack, Google Sheets or a webhook in the task's **Integrations** tab.

The first run returns the newest jobs up to your caps and remembers every other job on each site (it reads the list pages for that, which costs nothing per job). Every later run reads the list from the newest job down, stops at the first page it already knows, and returns only the new jobs. Turn on **Report closed jobs** to also get a free row with `status: "closed"` for every job that left the site since the last run.

### Input

| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| `careerSiteUrls` | Workday career site links, one per line. Required. |
| `keywords` | Keep jobs whose title matches any keyword. Words match at their start (`engineer` finds "Engineering"); keywords of 3 letters or fewer must be a whole word (`AI` does not match "Chair"). `/regex/` is supported. Same rules as our other job actors. |
| `locations` | Keep jobs with any of these texts in any of their locations (`Toronto`, `Remote`, `Germany`). |
| `countries` | Keep jobs in these countries, as ISO codes read from the job (`US`, `CA`, `DE`). Needs job details. |
| `jobFamilies` | Keep jobs in these job families, using the career site's own family filter (`Engineering`, `Sales`). The family is returned as `department`. |
| `remoteOnly` | Keep jobs the employer marks remote, or with a remote location. |
| `postedWithinDays` | Keep jobs posted in the last N days, checked on the exact date. Reading stops once a whole page is older. `0` = any date. |
| `onlyNewJobs`, `stateKey` | Return and charge only jobs not read before under this memory name. |
| `includeClosed` | Only-new mode: also output jobs that disappeared, as free `closed` rows. Reads the whole list every run. |
| `includeDescription` | On (default): exact date, country, time type, all locations and description, USD 0.50 per 1,000. Off: list fields only, USD 0.20 per 1,000. |
| `descriptionFormat` | `text` (default), `html` or `both`. |
| `maxJobsPerSite` | Newest first, at most this many per career site. Default 100, `0` = no limit. |
| `maxJobs` | Cap for the whole run. Default 1,000. |
| `maxConcurrency` | Career sites read at the same time. Default 3. |

### Output fields

| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| `company`, `tenant`, `site`, `careerSiteUrl` | The Workday tenant (company account), the career site id and its link. |
| `companyName` | The hiring entity Workday reports for the job, without Workday's numeric company code ("Salesforce, Inc.", "NVIDIA USA"). It can differ between countries. Empty with list fields only. |
| `jobId`, `title` | Requisition id and title. |
| `department` | The job family, when you filter by `jobFamilies` (Workday does not put the family on the job itself). Otherwise empty. |
| `location`, `locations`, `locationCount` | Main location, every location of the job, and how many there are. With list fields only, a job shown as "5 Locations" has no location text. |
| `country`, `countryCode` | Country name and ISO code of the job's requisition location. |
| `workplaceType`, `isRemote`, `remoteType` | `remote`, `hybrid`, `onsite` or empty, mapped from the employer's remote type ("Flex" and "Office - Flexible" are hybrid); `isRemote` is also true when a location says Remote. `remoteType` is the employer's own text. |
| `employmentType`, `timeType` | `full_time`, `part_time` and so on, from Workday's time type, which is kept as `timeType`. |
| `postedAt`, `postedDate`, `postedRelative` | Exact posting date (start of day, UTC), the same as a date, and the text the site shows ("Posted 3 Days Ago"). With list fields only, only `postedRelative` is filled. |
| `endDate` | When the employer set a closing date. |
| `jobUrl`, `applyUrl` | The job's page on the employer's Workday site, where candidates apply. |
| `descriptionText`, `descriptionHtml` | The description as the employer published it, with email addresses and phone numbers removed. Text is capped at 20,000 characters. |
| `descriptionHash` | Changes when the description changes. |
| `status`, `firstSeenAt` | `open`; in only-new mode `new` (and the run time), or `closed` for jobs that left the site. |
| `error` | Only on rows for inputs that could not be read. These rows are free. |

### Pricing

| What | Price (FREE and BRONZE plans) |
|---|---|
| Job with details | USD 0.0005 (USD 0.50 per 1,000); SILVER USD 0.45, GOLD and above USD 0.40 per 1,000 |
| Job with list fields only | USD 0.0002 (USD 0.20 per 1,000), same plan discounts |
| Run start | USD 0.001 |
| Filtered-out jobs, already-seen jobs, closed-job rows, failed or blocked career sites | Free |

Examples: the default input (3 career sites, 30 jobs each) is 90 jobs, USD 0.046. 50 employers with every open job (about 40,000 jobs) is about USD 20 once; after that, a daily only-new run over the same employers costs a few cents.

Set a maximum cost per run in the run options and the actor stops cleanly when it gets there; everything saved so far stays in the dataset.

### How it treats the career sites

- **Public endpoints only.** Each Workday career page loads its jobs from two JSON endpoints on its own host: a job list (`/wday/cxs/{tenant}/{site}/jobs`) and one job (`/wday/cxs/{tenant}/{site}/job/...`). The actor calls exactly those, nothing else: never the apply flow, candidate pages, the talent community or anything behind a login.
- **Honest identity.** Every request carries the user agent `Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; workday-jobs/1.0; +https://apify.com/JTPalms)`. No proxies, no browser, no fingerprinting, no cookies.
- **robots.txt.** Read once per host and run. A career site whose path is disallowed is skipped with a free error row (for example, NVIDIA disallows one of its sites).
- **Gentle pace.** At most 2 requests at a time per employer, with a pause between requests. HTTP 429 or 503 makes the actor wait (5, 15, then 45 seconds, or what the site asks) and slow down for the rest of the run; a 403 is retried once and never more.
- **Personal data.** Job postings describe the job, not people. The actor outputs no recruiter names or contact fields, and removes email addresses and phone numbers from descriptions.

### What it does not do

- It does not apply to jobs, read candidate or talent-community pages, or reach career sites that need a login.
- It does not see jobs the employer removed before the run, or internal postings.
- It does not look companies up by name: paste the career site link (a company-name directory may come in a later version).
- Workday's own search is not used: it ranks by relevance, which would break newest-first reading, so keywords are matched on titles here. On very large sites (CVS Health lists over 19,000 jobs) a narrow keyword reads more list pages; that takes longer but never costs more.

### Limits

- The posting date is the date the employer posted the job; Workday gives no time of day.
- A few employers hide the exact date; then only `postedRelative` is filled.
- `jobFamilies` works on sites that offer a job family filter (most do). The summary lists each site's family names when nothing matches.
- Employers sometimes move their Workday site (a new `wdN` number or site id). A moved site returns a free error row; paste the new link.

### FAQ

**Is it legal?** The actor reads job postings that employers publish for anyone to see, through the same public endpoints their career pages use, identifies itself honestly, respects robots.txt and stores no personal data. Workday's own website terms cover Workday's own sites; the career sites belong to the employers, so check the employer's terms before heavy or commercial reuse. If you republish jobs, link to `jobUrl` so candidates apply with the employer. This is not legal advice.

**How does Only new jobs work?** Per state key and career site, the actor keeps the requisition ids it has read in a key-value store named `workday-jobs-state` in your own Apify account. Jobs left out only by your caps are remembered too, so they do not come back later. Jobs cut off by your cost limit stay new for the next run. Changing filters under the same state key keeps the old memory (the summary warns you); use a new state key to start over, or delete the store in **Storage**.

**Why is `department` empty?** Workday puts the job family on its filter, not on the job. Filter by `jobFamilies` and the matched family is filled in.

**Something missing or wrong?** Open an issue with the career site link and what you expected.

# Actor input Schema

## `careerSiteUrls` (type: `array`):

One Workday career site per line. Any of these forms works: https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite, the same with a locale (/en-US/), a job link from the site, or https://wd5.myworkdaysite.com/recruiting/microchiphr/External. A bare host (https://salesforce.wd12.myworkdayjobs.com) reads every career site its robots.txt lists.

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

Keep jobs whose title matches any of these. A keyword matches at the start of a word, so engineer also finds Engineering. Keywords of 3 letters or fewer (AI, QA, SRE) must be a whole word. Wrap in slashes for a regular expression, for example /product (manager|owner)/. Same rules as our Greenhouse, Lever and Ashby job actors.

## `locations` (type: `array`):

Keep jobs whose location text contains any of these, for example Toronto, Remote or Germany. Every location of a multi-location job counts.

## `countries` (type: `array`):

Keep jobs in these countries, as 2-letter ISO codes read from the job itself: US, CA, DE, IN. Needs job details (on by default).

## `jobFamilies` (type: `array`):

Keep jobs in these job families, matched on the career site's own family names (for example Engineering, Sales, Marketing). Uses Workday's job family filter; the matched family is returned as department. Sites without a family filter return no jobs while this is set, and the run summary lists each site's families.

## `remoteOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Keep only jobs the employer marks remote, or with a remote location.

## `postedWithinDays` (type: `integer`):

Keep jobs posted in the last N days, checked on the exact posting date. Reading stops early once a whole page is older. 0 means any date.

## `onlyNewJobs` (type: `boolean`):

Return and charge only jobs this actor has not read before under the same memory name (State key). The first run returns the newest jobs up to your caps and remembers every other job on the site, so later runs return only jobs posted since. Memory lives in the key-value store workday-jobs-state in your own account.

## `stateKey` (type: `string`):

Name of the only-new memory. Use one key per saved task or filter set; change it to start over.

## `includeClosed` (type: `boolean`):

Only-new mode: also output jobs that disappeared from the site since the last run, as free rows with status closed. The whole job list is then read on every run (more requests, same price).

## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`):

Read each job's detail: exact posted date, country, time type, all locations and the description. Off returns list fields only (title, location text, relative posted date, requisition id) at the lower list price.

## `descriptionFormat` (type: `string`):

Plain text (descriptionText), HTML (descriptionHtml), or both. Email addresses and phone numbers are removed from both.

## `maxJobsPerSite` (type: `integer`):

Newest jobs first. 0 means no limit. Protects you from charges on very large sites (CVS Health lists over 19,000 jobs).

## `maxJobs` (type: `integer`):

Cap for the whole run. The log prints the highest possible charge before the first request.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many career sites are read at the same time. Each company (tenant) never gets more than 2 requests at once, with a pause between requests.
