## What's an Apify Actor?

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

## Career Page Scraper

Extract job listings from Canadian company career pages. Feed it a list of `{ slug, careerUrl }` pairs and it returns clean `{ title, url, location }` records for every open position.

ATS is auto-detected from the URL — no configuration needed.

### Supported ATS platforms

| ATS | Detection | Browser? |
|---|---|---|
| **Greenhouse** | `boards.greenhouse.io`, `job-boards.greenhouse.io` | No |
| **Lever** | `jobs.lever.co` | No |
| **Workday** | `*.myworkdayjobs.com` | No |
| **SmartRecruiters** | `*.smartrecruiters.com` | No |
| **Jobvite** | `jobs.jobvite.com` | No |
| **UltiPro (UKG Pro)** | `recruiting.ultipro.com`, `recruiting.ultipro.ca` | No |
| **ADP WFN** | `workforcenow.adp.com` | Yes |
| **Oracle HCM CE** | `*.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience`, `/sites/XX_N/` URLs | Yes |
| **BambooHR** | `*.bamboohr.com` | Yes |
| **iCIMS** | `*.icims.com` | Yes |
| **Taleo** | `*.taleo.net` | Yes |
| **Custom pages** | everything else | Yes |

### Input

```json
{
  "companies": [
    { "slug": "cdn-controls",   "careerUrl": "https://workforcenow.adp.com/mascsr/default/mdf/recruitment/recruitment.html?cid=208130f4-7c8d-4127-9ad0-701715a753f9&ccId=9200462645748_2&lang=en_CA" },
    { "slug": "telus",          "careerUrl": "https://boards.greenhouse.io/telus" },
    { "slug": "rogers",         "careerUrl": "https://rogers.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/External" },
    { "slug": "shaw",           "careerUrl": "https://jobs.lever.co/shaw" }
  ],
  "maxJobsPerCompany": 0,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
}
````

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `companies` | array | required | **One company per run.** Single-element array: `{ slug, careerUrl, atsType? }`. `atsType` is optional — overrides auto-detection when the URL doesn't match a known pattern (e.g. custom domains) |
| `maxJobsPerCompany` | integer | `0` | Cap results per company. `0` = unlimited |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | RESIDENTIAL | Proxy config. Residential recommended for ADP/iCIMS/Taleo |

### Output

One dataset item per company:

```json
{
  "slug": "cdn-controls",
  "atsType": "adp",
  "jobCount": 15,
  "jobs": [
    {
      "title": "Field Technician – BC Lower Mainland",
      "url": "https://workforcenow.adp.com/mascsr/...&requisitionId=12345",
      "location": "Vancouver, BC"
    }
  ],
  "error": null
}
```

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `slug` | string | Company slug passed in input |
| `atsType` | string | Detected ATS (`greenhouse`, `lever`, `workday`, `adp`, `bamboohr`, `smartrecruiters`, `jobvite`, `icims`, `taleo`, `generic`) |
| `jobCount` | integer | Total jobs found |
| `jobs` | array | List of `{ title, url, location }` objects |
| `jobs[].title` | string | Job title |
| `jobs[].url` | string | Direct link to the job posting |
| `jobs[].location` | string | City and province/state (e.g. `Vancouver, BC`) |
| `error` | string|null | Error message if scrape failed, otherwise `null` |

On failure, `jobCount` is `0` and `error` contains the message.

### How it works

#### API-first (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Jobvite, UltiPro)

These platforms expose public endpoints that return all job data without a browser. Fast, cheap, and no anti-bot risk.

#### Browser-based (ADP WFN, Oracle HCM CE, BambooHR, iCIMS, Taleo, custom pages)

Single-page applications that require a real browser session to load job data. The actor handles session establishment, dynamic content loading, and pagination automatically.

# Actor input Schema

## `companies` (type: `array`):

One company per run. Provide a single entry with slug and careerUrl. Optionally include atsType to override auto-detection (greenhouse, lever, workday, adp, bamboohr, smartrecruiters, jobvite, icims, taleo, generic). Example: \[{"slug": "cdn-controls", "careerUrl": "https://workforcenow.adp.com/...", "atsType": "adp"}]

## `maxJobsPerCompany` (type: `integer`):

Cap job results per company. 0 = unlimited.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Used only for browser-based engines (ADP, BambooHR, iCIMS, Taleo, custom pages). Direct API scrapers (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Jobvite) bypass this entirely — no proxy credits consumed for those.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "companies": [
    {
      "slug": "autotrader-canada",
      "careerUrl": "https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/autotradercanada"
    }
  ],
  "maxJobsPerCompany": 0,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `jobListings` (type: `string`):

Dataset of scraped job listings. Each item: { slug, atsType, jobCount, jobs: \[{ title, url, location }], error }

# 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 '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "companies": [
        {
            "slug": "autotrader-canada",
            "careerUrl": "https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/autotradercanada"
        }
    ],
    "proxyConfiguration": {

        "apifyProxyGroups": [
            "RESIDENTIAL"
        ]
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("netorb/netorb-web-scraper").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);
});

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
