❓ FAQ

Does this require a RemoteOK account? No. The scraper uses RemoteOK's public API which requires no authentication.

How fresh is the data? The API returns current live listings. Run the actor on a schedule (e.g. daily) to keep your dataset up to date.

Why are some jobs missing salary data? RemoteOK only shows salary ranges when companies choose to disclose them. Jobs without salary data will have salaryMin: null and salaryMax: null.

Can I filter by multiple tags at once? Yes — provide an array of tags like ["react", "python"]. Each tag is queried separately and results are merged and deduplicated.

Is web scraping RemoteOK legal? This actor only accesses RemoteOK's public API endpoints, which are intentionally provided for programmatic access. Always ensure your use of the data complies with RemoteOK's terms of service and applicable data protection regulations.
