They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. 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. - **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use). - **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`. - **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`. - **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`. - **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

It uses new techniques to scrap data quickly. #### What this actor does - Scrapes job listings from a provided Workday career site URL (e.g., `https://company.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/CAREERS`). - Paginates through results and applies optional title and location filters. - Fetches job detail pages for descriptions and qualifications when available. - Stores all results as structured JSON items in the default dataset. #### Input Pass the following properties via the Apify input UI or JSON: ```json { "start_url": "https://company.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/CAREERS", "max_items": 100, "proxy_configuration": { "useApifyProxy": true }, "keyword_filter": "engineer, data", "location_filter": "USA, Remote" } ``` - `start_url` (string, required): Workday careers search page URL. - `max_items` (integer, default 100): Maximum jobs to collect. Set a high value to fetch more. - `proxy_configuration` (object, default uses Apify proxy): Use Residential proxies for stricter tenants (Netflix, RTX, etc.). - `keyword_filter` (string): Comma-separated keywords matched against job titles (case-insensitive). - `location_filter` (string): Comma-separated locations matched against any job location text. #### Output Each dataset item follows this structure: ```json { "job_title": "Senior Data Engineer", "company": "ExampleCorp", "job_url": "https://company.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/CAREERS/job/1234", "locations": ["Remote", "USA"], "country": "USA", "time_type": "Full time", "posted_on": "2024-10-05", "post_id": "R-123456", "description": "Full job description HTML/text...", "responsibilities": "Key responsibilities text...", "qualifications": "Qualifications text..." } ``` #### Tips - Prefer Residential proxies for heavily protected tenants; Datacenter proxies can work for others. - Provide precise `keyword_filter` / `location_filter` to reduce noise and speed up runs. - If a site layout changes, verify the `start_url` points to the standard Workday search page before reporting issues. #### Support Issues and contributions are welcome. Describe the target `start_url`, proxy type, and any error messages for faster triage. # Actor input Schema ## `start_url` (type: `string`): The link to the Workday job search page (e.g., https://company.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/CAREERS). ## `max_items` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of jobs to scrape. Set to 0 for all. ## `proxy_configuration` (type: `object`): Select 'Residential Proxy' for strict sites (like RTX/Defense). 'Datacenter' is fine for standard sites. ## `keyword_filter` (type: `string`): Comma-separated keywords to filter titles (e.g., 'python, manager'). Leave empty to scrape all. ## `location_filter` (type: `string`): Comma-separated locations to filter (e.g., 'USA, Remote'). Leave empty to scrape all. ## Actor input object example ```json { "start_url": "https://ag.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/Airbus", "max_items": 100, "proxy_configuration": { "useApifyProxy": true }, "keyword_filter": "", "location_filter": "" } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `dataset` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = {}; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("miladamirzadeh/workday-job-scraper-fast-edition").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
