## 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.

# README

## EURES EU Job Mobility Portal Scraper

Get live job vacancies from **EURES** — the official European job-mobility
network ([europa.eu/eures](https://europa.eu/eures)) — as clean, structured
data. **No login, no account, no setup.**

Search across millions of EU vacancies from national employment services,
filter by keyword and country, and export results to JSON/CSV/Excel or pull
via the Apify API.

### Why use it

- **Broad EU coverage** — aggregates postings from national public employment
  services across all EU member states.
- **Keyword-driven search** — fan multiple search terms in one run to get
  diverse results, all deduplicated automatically.
- **Country / region filter** — restrict to specific countries using standard
  ISO country codes.
- **Clean structured output** — ready for spreadsheets, databases, dashboards
  or job-matching pipelines.
- **No proxies required** — lightweight runs against the public EURES API.

### What you get

One dataset item per vacancy:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `id` | Stable EURES vacancy id |
| `title` | Job title |
| `company` | Employer name (blank when not disclosed) |
| `location` | Country code(s) of the posting |
| `url` | Direct link to the EURES vacancy detail page |
| `postedAt` | Publication date (ISO `YYYY-MM-DD`) |
| `snippet` | Plain-text description excerpt (up to 400 characters) |
| `source` | Always `eures` |

### Input

| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `keywords` | array of strings | Search terms; one API call per keyword. Leave empty to use built-in professional role seeds. |
| `locationCodes` | array of strings | ISO country codes (e.g. `"de"`, `"es"`) or NUTS codes to restrict results. Leave empty for all EU. |
| `maxItems` | integer | Hard cap on total returned vacancies (default 50). |
| `timeoutSeconds` | integer | HTTP timeout per API call in seconds (default 20). |

#### Example

```json
{
  "keywords": ["software engineer", "data analyst"],
  "locationCodes": ["de", "nl"],
  "maxItems": 100,
  "timeoutSeconds": 30
}
````

Returns up to 100 tech-role vacancies posted in Germany or the Netherlands,
deduplicated across both keyword searches.

### Use cases

- Job seekers tracking new EU postings without manually checking the portal.
- Recruitment and staffing teams sourcing candidates across EU member states.
- Career aggregators and job-board operators enriching their listings with
  European public-sector and private-sector roles.
- Labor-market researchers analysing vacancy distribution across EU countries.

# Actor input Schema

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

One or more search terms. The scraper fans one API call per keyword and deduplicates results. Leave empty to use a built-in set of professional role seeds.

## `locationCodes` (type: `array`):

Restrict results to specific EU countries or NUTS regions. Use ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes (e.g. "de", "es", "fr") or NUTS codes. Leave empty to search all EU member states.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of vacancies to return across all keyword queries. Combined with deduplication, this is a hard cap on pushed records.

## `timeoutSeconds` (type: `integer`):

HTTP request timeout per API call in seconds.

## `cacheTtlSeconds` (type: `integer`):

Cache the upstream fetch in the key-value store for this many seconds; re-runs within the window skip the network call. Set 0 to disable.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "keywords": [
    "software engineer",
    "data analyst",
    "project officer"
  ],
  "locationCodes": [
    "de",
    "fr",
    "es"
  ],
  "maxItems": 50,
  "timeoutSeconds": 20,
  "cacheTtlSeconds": 1800
}
```
