Output Format

After each run, the scraper generates a dataset of Upwork jobs with the following information:

• Job ID and URL: Unique identifiers and direct links to job listings
• Title and Description: Detailed information about what the job entails
• Budget Information: Fixed price amount or hourly rate ranges
• Client Statistics: Total spent, number of hires, feedback scores, etc.
• Job Requirements: Experience level, skills needed, and category
• Posting Time: When the job was published
• Additional Details: Tags, contract type, engagement duration, and more

Supported Filtering Options

Standard Filters

• Experience Levels: Entry Level, Intermediate, Expert

• Job Types: Fixed Price, Hourly Rate

• Client History: No previous hires, 1-9 previous hires, 10+ previous hires

• Maximum Job Age: Filter by minutes, hours, days, or weeks

• Locations: Filter by regions, subregions, or specific countries

• Payment Verification: Filter jobs by whether the client has verified payment methods

  Example Maximum Job Age Filter:

  {
    "value": 24,
    "unit": "hours"
  }
  

  This example would filter out jobs older than 24 hours. Supported units are "minutes", "hours", "days", and "weeks".

  Example Location Filter:

  ["United States", "Europe", "Australia"]
  

  This example would filter jobs to only show those from the United States, Europe, and Australia regions.

Custom Filters

Custom filters allow you to filter jobs based on any job property:

• Available Properties:

  • title
  • description
  • jobType
  • experienceLevel
  • budget
  • tags
  • relativeDate
  • absoluteDate
  • paymentVerified
  • clientLocation
  • allowedApplicantCountries

• Available Operators:

  • includes - checks if the value is included in the property (supports both single string and array of strings)
  • equals - checks if the value exactly matches the property
  • notIncludes - checks if the value is not included in the property (supports both single string and array of strings)
  • notEquals - checks if the value does not exactly match the property

• Example Custom Filters:

  [
    {
      "key": "title",
      "operator": "includes",
      "value": "python"
    },
    {
      "key": "experienceLevel",
      "operator": "equals",
      "value": "Expert"
    },
    {
      "key": "tags",
      "operator": "notIncludes",
      "value": "wordpress"
    }
  ]
  

• Example Using Arrays with Includes Operator:

  [
    {
      "key": "title",
      "operator": "includes",
      "value": ["react", "vue", "angular"]
    },
    {
      "key": "description",
      "operator": "includes",
      "value": ["typescript", "javascript"]
    }
  ]
  

  This example will find jobs that have any of "react", "vue", or "angular" in the title AND have either "typescript" or "javascript" in the description. Using arrays with the includes operator allows you to efficiently search for multiple terms without creating separate filters for each term.

Filtering Jobs by Eligible Countries

One of the most powerful features of this scraper is the ability to filter jobs based on which countries are eligible to apply. The allowedApplicantCountries property contains an array of country names that the client has explicitly restricted the job to - meaning only applicants from these countries are allowed to apply, and applicants from all other countries are excluded.

Using the allowedApplicantCountries Filter

To find jobs that specifically allow applicants from your country (and exclude those that don't):

[
  {
    "key": "allowedApplicantCountries",
    "operator": "includes",
    "value": "United States"
  }
]

This example will only show jobs that explicitly allow applicants from the United States. Jobs that don't include the United States in their allowed countries list will be filtered out.

Finding Jobs Open to Multiple Specific Countries

You can search for jobs that allow applicants from any of several countries using an array:

[
  {
    "key": "allowedApplicantCountries",
    "operator": "includes",
    "value": ["United States", "United Kingdom"]
  }
]

This example will show jobs that allow applicants from either the United States OR the United Kingdom (or both). The job must allow at least one of these countries to be included in the results.

Finding Jobs Open to All Countries

To find jobs that are open to applicants from all countries (no country restrictions):

[
  {
    "key": "allowedApplicantCountries",
    "operator": "equals",
    "value": null
  }
]

When a job has no country restrictions (allowedApplicantCountries is null), it means the job is open to applicants from any country.

Using Authentication Cookies (Optional)

You do not need to provide cookies anymore – the scraper uses in‑house cookies automatically.

However, if you prefer to use your own Upwork cookies (for example, to see results exactly as a specific account), you still can.

Required Cookies

If you decide to override the in‑house cookies, provide at least these two from your logged‑in Upwork session:

• master_access_token
• oauth2_global_js_token

Cookies Format

Provide cookies as an array of objects with this structure:

[
  {
    "name": "master_access_token",
    "value": "your-cookie-value-here"
  },
  {
    "name": "oauth2_global_js_token",
    "value": "another-cookie-value"
  }
]

Only the name and value fields are required; the others are handled automatically.

Example

{
  "query": "web scraping",
  "cookies": [
    {
      "name": "master_access_token",
      "value": "ABC123XYZ"
    },
    {
      "name": "oauth2_global_js_token",
      "value": "def456uvw"
    }
  ]
}
