Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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 ## JobsDB Thailand Scraper Scrape job listings from JobsDB Thailand (`th.jobsdb.com`) by keyword, location, search URL, or job detail URL. The Actor is Thailand-only and is designed for job market monitoring, lead generation, salary research, recruiting intelligence, and recurring job tracking. ### Features - Search JobsDB Thailand by keyword and location - Crawl multiple result pages with `maxPages` and `maxResults` - Open job detail pages by default for full job data - Extract company, location, category, employment type, salary text, job description, application URL, and screening questions - Track jobs across repeated runs with incremental mode - Detect new, updated, unchanged, expired, and reappeared listings - Optional compact output for AI agents and automation workflows - Optional public contact extraction from job descriptions - Residential proxy friendly with browser-based crawling, retries, and session handling ### Input Typical input: ```json { "query": "software engineer", "location": "Bangkok", "maxResults": 50, "maxPages": 3, "includeDetails": true, "incrementalMode": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "groups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ```` Incremental monitoring input: ```json { "query": "data analyst", "location": "Bangkok", "maxResults": 100, "maxPages": 5, "includeDetails": true, "incrementalMode": true, "stateKey": "jobsdb-th-data-analyst-bangkok", "emitExpired": true, "emitUnchanged": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "groups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ``` You can also provide `startUrls` with JobsDB Thailand search or detail URLs. URLs outside `https://th.jobsdb.com` are ignored. ### Output Each dataset item can include: - `jobId`, `seekJobId` - `title` - `company`, `companyUrl`, `advertiserId` - `location`, `locationCountry`, `locationState`, `locationSuburb`, `locationPostcode` - `salaryText`, `salaryMin`, `salaryMax`, `salaryCurrency`, `salaryType` - `employmentType`, `workArrangement` - `category`, `subCategory`, `roleId` - `description`, `descriptionMarkdown`, `descriptionLength` - `applyUrl`, `shareUrl`, `canonicalUrl` - `screeningQuestions` - `companyIndustry`, `companySize` - `postedAtText`, `listedAtUtc`, `scrapedAt` - `changeType`, `firstSeenAt`, `lastSeenAt`, `isRepost`, `repostOfId` when incremental mode is enabled - `phoneNumber`, `extractedEmails` when `includeContacts` is enabled Example: ```json { "jobId": "91943754", "seekJobId": "91943754", "title": "Software Engineer", "company": "Finnomena Co., Ltd.", "location": "Pathum Wan, Bangkok (Hybrid)", "employmentType": "Full time", "workArrangement": "hybrid", "category": "Information & Communication Technology", "subCategory": "Engineering - Software", "applyUrl": "https://th.jobsdb.com/job/91943754/apply", "canonicalUrl": "https://th.jobsdb.com/job/91943754", "postedAtText": "Posted 4h ago" } ``` ### Detail Mode `includeDetails` is enabled by default. This is the recommended mode because JobsDB search pages often expose only job IDs and URLs. Detail mode opens each listing and extracts the complete job data. Disable `includeDetails` only when you need a fast URL/job ID discovery run. ### Incremental Mode When `incrementalMode` is enabled, the Actor stores a baseline in the default key-value store using `stateKey`. Future runs compare current listings against that baseline and emit: - `NEW` - `UPDATED` - `UNCHANGED` - `REAPPEARED` - `EXPIRED` Use a stable `stateKey` per scheduled search, for example `jobsdb-th-software-engineer-bangkok`. ### Performance Notes JobsDB/SEEK may block cloud and datacenter traffic. Residential proxy is strongly recommended. Detail mode is slower than search-only mode because it opens every job page. Recommended production settings: - `includeDetails`: `true` - `maxConcurrency`: `1` - `maxRequestRetries`: `4` - `navigationTimeoutSecs`: `120` - `requestHandlerTimeoutSecs`: `180` - Apify Proxy group: `RESIDENTIAL` ### Latest Verification Verified on Apify cloud on 2026-05-06 with: - `query`: `software engineer` - `location`: `Bangkok` - `maxResults`: `20` - `maxPages`: `2` - `includeDetails`: `true` - `maxConcurrency`: `1` - residential proxy Result: - 21 requests: 1 search page + 20 detail pages - 21 succeeded - 0 failed - detail fields were populated, including title, company, location, description, apply URL, and screening questions where available ### Limitations - This Actor supports JobsDB Thailand only. - JobsDB can change its frontend structure or anti-bot behavior, which may require parser or proxy tuning. - Some fields are only available when JobsDB exposes them on the listing or detail page. - Public contact extraction is optional and limited to contacts visible in job text. ### Legal Use this Actor responsibly and make sure your use case complies with JobsDB/SEEK terms and applicable laws. Avoid collecting or using personal data in ways that violate privacy or platform rules. # Actor input Schema ## `query` (type: `string`): Job search keyword such as software engineer, data analyst, or บัญชี. ## `queries` (type: `array`): Optional list of additional keywords.
