🧑‍💻 Workday Jobs Scraper — Any Employer Career Site

Export current public job postings from one or many Workday-hosted employer career sites. Paste the same Workday careers URL you would open in a browser—no tenant-code reverse engineering, login, token, or API key required.

Each delivered job_record contains the employer tenant, source requisition ID, title, location, posted date, remote indicator, and direct job URL. Records are deduplicated by Workday tenant and source requisition ID.

Output is one job_record row per result; billing is pay-per-event, the value event being one job record (a $0.02 start fee per run, then $0.05 per job record).

📊 Sample Output

Real rows from run sBVlnqbE5BRbtQBdy on build 0.2.4 (2026-09-17), the same input as the Quick start below — every value is as the source published it (emails masked, long text shortened):

tenant	company_name	source_platform	title	location	posted_at
cisco	cisco	workday	Principal Engineering, Hardware Project & Program Management	San Jose, California, US	Posted Today
cisco	cisco	workday	Lead AI Researcher (Hybrid)	2 Locations	Posted Yesterday
cisco	cisco	workday	Hardware Engineering Program Manager	San Jose, California, US	Posted Yesterday
cisco	cisco	workday	Principal Software Engineer - Cisco IQ Validation (Hybrid)	3 Locations	Posted Yesterday
cisco	cisco	workday	Product Designer - Splunk	43 Locations	Posted Yesterday

The run finished with the status message: CAPPED: delivered 5 of at least 1357 unique postings (maxRecords=5). job_record billable=5 [requested_cap=5, delivered=5]

✅ What you get

Each row is flat JSON with these fields (from the dataset schema and the sample run; a field the source does not publish for a given row is null):

• tenant (string/null) — e.g. cisco
• company_name (string/null) — e.g. cisco
• source_platform (string/null) — e.g. workday
• source_job_id (string/null) — e.g. 2018229
• title (string/null) — e.g. Principal Engineering, Hardware Project & Program Management
• department (string/null) — null in every sample row
• location (string/null) — e.g. San Jose, California, US
• city (string/null) — null in every sample row
• state (string/null) — null in every sample row
• country (string/null) — null in every sample row
• is_remote (boolean/null) — e.g. False
• employment_type (string/null) — null in every sample row
• url (string/null) — e.g. https://cisco.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/job/San-Jose-California-US/Principal-Enginee
• posted_at (string/null) — e.g. Posted Today
• source_url (string/null) — e.g. https://cisco.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/wday/cxs/cisco/Cisco_Careers/jobs
• record_type (string) — e.g. job_record
• source (string/null) — e.g. workday-multi-tenant-jobs
• observed_at (string/null) — e.g. 2026-09-17T18:19:30Z
• terminal (string/null) — null in every sample row
• platform (string/null) — null in every sample row
• tenants_requested (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• tenants_ok (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• tenants_blocked (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• tenants_empty (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• tenants_error (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• raw_seen (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• duplicates (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• unique_found (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• delivered (integer/null) — null in every sample row
• reconcile (array/null) — null in every sample row
• per_tenant (array/null) — null in every sample row

Every run also writes a RUN_RECEIPT record to its key-value store with the source checks it made and the counts it charged — diagnostics never land in the paid dataset.

⚙️ Sample inputs

1. Quick start — the Store example (this is what the sample above came from)

{
  "maxRecords": 5,
  "careerSiteUrls": [
    "https://cisco.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/Cisco_Careers"
  ]
}

The sample run charged exactly: 1 × $0.02 apify-actor-start + 5 × $0.05 job_record = $0.27 on the Free tier — every delivered row was billed.

2. A smaller, narrowed run

{
  "maxRecords": 5,
  "careerSiteUrls": [
    "https://cisco.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/Cisco_Careers"
  ]
}

Caps the run at 5 rows — about $0.27 on the Free tier ($0.02 start + 5 × $0.05).

3. A full-size run

{
  "maxRecords": 5000,
  "careerSiteUrls": [
    "https://cisco.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/Cisco_Careers"
  ]
}

Up to 5000 rows (the schema default for maxRecords) — about $250.02 on the Free tier ($0.02 start + 5000 × $0.05) if the source has that many.

}

🔧 How it works

Transport. Plain HTTPS from the Apify platform, no proxy. robots.txt is read first and a disallowed path is never fetched. Every request carries an identified contact User-Agent.

Terminal states. A run ends NORMAL, CAPPED (your cap was reached), PARTIAL (something was withheld and the message says what), GENUINE_EMPTY (the source was read and truly had nothing in scope) or BLOCKED (the source refused or changed shape — the run FAILS loud and bills nothing). A zero-row run is never reported as a silent success.

Charging. Each job record is charged at the moment it is pushed (job_record); a row that fails to charge is not delivered, so the dataset count always equals the charged count.

Existing integrations

The original tenants input remains supported. Existing callers may continue sending values such as:

{
  "tenants": ["cisco:wd5:Cisco_Careers"],
  "maxRecords": 50
}

If both inputs are supplied, URL and legacy entries are combined and deduplicated before fetching.

Run behavior

Every run returns the employers' current public postings immediately—there is no baseline or seeding step. maxRecords is a run-wide delivery and billing cap, not a guaranteed result count.

Inputs are validated before any board request. Non-HTTPS URLs, non-Workday hosts, vanity domains that do not expose the Workday identifiers, custom ports, credentials, and malformed paths fail closed rather than guessing a tenant or endpoint.

Each resolved board's public Workday CXS endpoint is fetched only when its robots policy allows it. A blocked or errored board contributes no records and no job_record charges. If every requested board is blocked or errors, the run fails loudly instead of presenting the outage as an empty result. A reachable board with genuinely no current postings returns zero job records.

Scope

This Actor covers public myworkdayjobs.com and myworkdaysite.com career boards. It does not log in, bypass access controls, crawl employer vanity domains, open each description page, or infer fields that Workday does not provide in the public job-list response.

Who it is for

• Recruiters and sourcers monitoring openings across target employers
• Job boards and aggregators ingesting public Workday postings
• Talent-market analysts comparing hiring activity across companies

What is not done. No login, no cookie or CAPTCHA bypass, no private or personal-account data, no browser automation.

💰 Pricing example

Event	Free	Bronze	Silver	Gold
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$0.02	$0.02	$0.02	$0.02
Job Record (job_record)	$0.05	$0.04	$0.04	$0.03

Worked at the live Free-tier price:

• 5 job records: $0.02 start + 5 × $0.05 = $0.27
• 25 job records: $0.02 start + 25 × $0.05 = $1.27
• 5000 job records: $0.02 start + 5000 × $0.05 = $250.02

A run that delivers zero rows charges the $0.02 start fee only. A BLOCKED run (source refused) fails loud and charges no value event. The start fee is charged once per GB of run memory; the default run memory is 1024 MB.

Yield on the sample run: CAPPED: delivered 5 of at least 1357 unique postings (maxRecords=5). job_record billable=5 [requested_cap=5, delivered=5]. maxRecords is a hard ceiling on what is delivered and billed, never a target.

⚖️ Legal & ToS

This actor reads public data only. It collects only what the source publishes to any visitor, keeps to the source's robots rules (checked on every run), identifies itself with a contact User-Agent, and does not access accounts, private data or anything behind authentication. Use the output in line with the source's terms and your local law; the intended use is B2B research and monitoring.

❓ FAQ

Q: Do I need an API key or a login?
A: No. the input schema has no key field and the actor carries no secrets.

Q: Why did my run return 0 rows?
A: Read the run's status message. GENUINE_EMPTY means the source was read and had nothing in scope for your input; BLOCKED means the source refused and the run failed without billing a value event — retry later or narrow the input. A zero-row run bills the start fee only.

Q: How many rows can one run return?
A: Up to maxRecords (default 5000). Raise the cap for a bigger run; you pay per delivered row.

Q: How fresh is the data?
A: Every run reads the source live at run time; nothing is cached between runs. Put it on a schedule for a continuous feed.

Q: What formats can I export?
A: The dataset downloads as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS from the run's Dataset tab or the Apify API, and any run can push to a webhook or integration.

Q: How is this different from the other ATS job feeds actors?
A: Same output shape and billing model; this one covers Workday Jobs Scraper — Any Employer Career Site. The siblings under Related Actors cover the other sources or slices — run several on one schedule for a combined feed.

Q: Are there rate limits?
A: The actor paces itself against the source and honours its robots rules; there is no per-buyer limit beyond your Apify plan's concurrency.

🆘 Troubleshooting

• Run FAILED with BLOCKED → the source refused the request or changed its page shape → nothing was billed beyond the start fee; retry after a while, and if it persists open an Issue with the run id.
• Status says CAPPED → your cap (maxRecords) was reached → raise it for a bigger run.
• Input validation error on start → a field is outside the schema's allowed values → start from the Quick start block and change one field at a time.
• Run TIMED-OUT → a very wide request on a slow day → raise the run timeout in Run options or narrow the input; what was delivered before the timeout is still in the dataset.
