🏔️ Himalayas Remote Jobs API — Search & Filter Remote Jobs

Get remote jobs from Himalayas (himalayas.app, about 126,000 live listings) as clean rows: title, company, employment type, seniority, pay with a yearly figure worked out for you (hourly × 2,080, monthly × 12…), countries and timezones the job accepts, categories, full description and the Himalayas apply link.

Search by keyword, then narrow by country, worldwide-only, seniority, employment type, company, timezone, minimum yearly pay, salary present and age. Each keyword runs Himalayas' own search, and the recent-jobs feed is scanned for more matches, so you are not limited to one page of results.

It uses Himalayas' public jobs API, which needs no key and allows commercial use on its terms (credit Himalayas, keep its apply link, do not repost to other job boards). The unit of output is one job delivered.

Who buys this and for what job

• Remote job boards and newsletters that credit and link Himalayas as the source.
• Recruiters and sales teams finding companies hiring remotely for a role.
• Job seekers and career tools tracking new remote roles by skill, country and pay.
• Analysts studying remote pay and hiring by category.

Buyers usually search for this as "Himalayas jobs scraper", "remote jobs API" or "remote job listings".

🔧 How it works

For each keyword the actor reads the first page of Himalayas' search API (up to 20 best matches, with the server-side filters). Himalayas' robots.txt does not allow later search pages, so the actor then walks the public jobs feed with its cursor (20 jobs per request, about one request a second, since the keyless allowance is shared) and applies the same filters itself, matching keywords against the title, categories and description. Jobs are de-duplicated on their link.

Every run reads each host's robots.txt first: a path it disallows is skipped, listed in the run receipt and never charged. Only public internet addresses are fetched (no private, loopback or cloud-metadata addresses, checked again on every redirect). No logins, no CAPTCHA solving, no proxies.

Delivery is pushed first and charged after. The run receipt (RUN_RECEIPT) shows each search, how many feed jobs were scanned, how many were dropped by each filter, and the delivered and charged counts.

💰 Pricing example

Per job delivered, no start fee, no monthly charge:

Apify plan	Price per job
Free	$0.05
Bronze	$0.045
Silver	$0.04
Gold, Platinum, Diamond	$0.0335

• 10 jobs: $0.50 on the Free plan, $0.34 on Gold.
• 1,000 jobs: $50.00 on the Free plan, $33.50 on Gold.
• 10,000 jobs: $500.00 on the Free plan, $335.00 on Gold.

Coverage and size. Proof runs on 18 Oct 2026: 40 jobs for two keywords in 7 seconds; the 10-job Store example in 3 seconds; Germany + Full Time + 50,000/year over 400 scanned jobs gave 3 jobs in 27 seconds. Scanning the whole feed (about 126,000 jobs) takes roughly 1¾ hours at the shared request rate; most runs scan a few thousand.

⚖️ Legal & ToS

Jobs are Himalayas' listings. Himalayas' API terms allow personal and commercial integrations on three conditions: every Apply action uses the apply_url it supplies, Himalayas is clearly credited with a visible link, and the jobs are not redistributed to other job boards, aggregators or job search engines. Every row carries the apply link and the source so you can meet them.

Rows hold job and company fields only; no recruiter or applicant names.

Every run reads each host's robots.txt first: a path it disallows is skipped, listed in the run receipt and never charged. Only public internet addresses are fetched (no private, loopback or cloud-metadata addresses, checked again on every redirect). No logins, no CAPTCHA solving, no proxies.

❓ FAQ

Do I need a Himalayas account or key? No. The public API is keyless.

Why are there more matches than the search returns? The search gives one page (up to 20) per keyword; the feed scan finds the rest. Raise scanLimit for more.

Can I repost these jobs on my own job board? Himalayas' terms ask you not to redistribute them to other job boards or aggregators. Use them in your own product with credit and the apply link.

🆘 Troubleshooting

• Few results — Raise scanLimit, or loosen the filters; RUN_RECEIPT shows how many jobs each filter dropped.
• SOURCE UNAVAILABLE — Himalayas did not answer after retries. Nothing was charged.
