Input fields

Field	What it does
Professions	One or more professions, from Physician and Nurse Practitioner to Occupational Therapist. Empty means all.
Specialties	One or more specialties, such as Cardiology or Family Medicine. Empty means all.
States	One or more states. Empty means everywhere.
Closest to	A city or ZIP code. Results come nearest first; this orders the search rather than narrowing it, so pair it with Maximum jobs.
Sort by	Newest first, oldest first, or nearest first (with Closest to). Empty: newest first, or nearest first when Closest to is set.
Posted by	Employers and search firms (default), employers only, or search firms only.
Maximum jobs	Stop after this many jobs; 0 collects everything the search finds.

The dataset has three views: Jobs, Recruiter contacts and Pay and visas. Export it to JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or HTML from the run's Storage tab, or read it through the Apify API.

How much does it cost to scrape PracticeLink?

PracticeLink Job Scraper is paid per result: a small fee when a run starts and a fee for every job it saves. Jobs with full details cost more than search-result-only jobs, since each one takes an extra page. The current prices are on the Pricing tab, and you can try the scraper on the Apify free plan.

To cap the cost of a run, set a maximum charge in the run options. When the run reaches it, it stops and keeps every job collected up to that point.

PracticeLink API: use the scraper from your code

Every run can be started and read through the Apify API. The API tab on this page shows ready-made requests for your account.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("muhammetakkurtt/practicelink-job-scraper").call(run_input={
    "professions": ["Physician"],
    "specialties": ["Family-Medicine"],
    "states": ["Ohio"],
    "maxJobs": 100,
})
for job in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(job["title"], job["salaryText"], job["recruiter"])

Node.js

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('muhammetakkurtt/practicelink-job-scraper').call({
    professions: ['Nurse-Practitioner'],
    states: ['California'],
    maxJobs: 100,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items.map((job) => job.title));

Integrations

Send PracticeLink jobs where you work: Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, Slack, Airbyte and more, or your own endpoint through webhooks. Pair a schedule with Sort by: newest to get a daily feed of new openings.

Tips

• Big searches: all physician jobs (over 30,000) take about half an hour with details on and under ten minutes with details off. Narrow by specialty or state when you need results fast.
• Repeat runs: jobs keep their jobId, so you can compare runs and pick out new openings.
• Proxy: usually not needed. If PracticeLink starts refusing requests, turn on Apify Proxy in the input.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape PracticeLink?

The scraper collects job postings that PracticeLink publishes openly, without logging in. Use the data in line with PracticeLink's terms and the laws that apply to you, especially for recruiter contact details.

How do I get only new PracticeLink jobs?

Sort by newest (the default) and set Maximum jobs; each run then returns the most recently verified openings first. Schedule it daily and compare jobIds between runs.

Why do some jobs have no posting date?

Search-firm postings, about a third of physician jobs, are published without a posting date, closing date, education requirements or occupation code. Every job still has verifiedDate, the day the posting was last confirmed as open.

Does a restarted run duplicate jobs?

No. If the platform moves or restarts a run, it carries on where it stopped and does not store or charge a job twice.

Can I export PracticeLink jobs to Excel?

Yes. Open the run's Storage tab and download the dataset as Excel, CSV, JSON, XML or HTML, or pick the Recruiter contacts or Pay and visas view first to export just those columns.

Something is missing or not working

Open an issue on the Issues tab with the run link and what you expected. Requests for new fields or filters are welcome there too.
