## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### Jobindex.dk Jobs Scraper

***

Danish Jobs, Employers & Ad Text. Provide any Jobindex.dk search URL and get structured job listing data across result pages: title, company, location, posting date, deadline, teaser snippet, job link and apply link. Turn on `detailedInfo` to also fetch the full ad text, employment type and weekly hours from each job page.

***

#### **📋 Example Output**

```json
{
  "id": "h1706998",
  "url": "https://www.jobindex.dk/jobannonce/h1706998/full-stack-udvikler",
  "title": "Full stack-udvikler",
  "company": "Monsalta ApS",
  "companyUrl": "https://www.jobindex.dk/virksomhed/66270/monsalta-aps#om-virksomhed",
  "location": "Hørsholm og mulighed for hjemmearbejde",
  "postedAt": "2026-10-13",
  "deadline": "2026-11-10",
  "snippet": "Har du lyst til at bygge software, der hjælper nogle af Danmarks største offentlige digitale services med at holde styr på drift, kvalitet og compliance? Du er nyuddannet eller har erfaring fra tidligere job – det vigtigste er, at du har lyst til at lære, bidrage aktivt og byde ind med nye idéer.",
  "salary": null,
  "remote": false,
  "source": null,
  "hostedOnJobindex": true,
  "jobindexUrl": "https://www.jobindex.dk/vis-job/h1706998",
  "applyUrl": "https://www.jobindex.dk/c?t=e6341516&ctx=w",
  "employmentType": null,
  "workingHours": null,
  "descriptionText": null,
  "descriptionSource": null,
  "scrapedAt": "2026-10-13T17:50:46.576Z"
}
```

With `detailedInfo: true`, `descriptionText`, `employmentType` and `workingHours` are filled from the job page. Ads hosted on jobindex.dk (`hostedOnJobindex: true`, `url` under `/jobannonce/`) are parsed reliably; ads that link straight to an employer site are fetched once, best-effort (`descriptionSource` tells you whether the text came from `jobindex`, the employer page's `ld+json` JobPosting data, or the employer `page` text).

#### ⚙️ **Configuration**

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
| `url` | String | *(required)* | Jobindex.dk search URL, e.g. `https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning?q=udvikler` or `https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning/storkoebenhavn?q=it`. |
| `maxPages` | Integer | `1` | Number of result pages to scrape (1–100, 20 jobs per page, `?page=N` pagination). |
| `maxItems` | Integer | `0` | Stop after this many jobs (0 = all jobs on the scraped pages). Handy to cap detail requests. |
| `detailedInfo` | Boolean | `false` | Visit each job page for the full ad text, employment type and weekly hours. One extra request per job. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | Object | Apify Proxy (auto) | Proxy settings; switch to RESIDENTIAL only if results are empty. |

##### Example Input

```json
{
  "url": "https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning?q=udvikler",
  "maxPages": 3,
  "detailedInfo": false
}
```

##### Getting your search URL

1. Open [jobindex.dk](https://www.jobindex.dk/) and search for a job title, area, category or company (use the filters for employment type, working hours, home working …)
2. Copy the full URL from your browser address bar — it always starts with `https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning`
3. Paste it as the `url` input — the scraper handles the `?page=N` pagination for you

Reach out via Apify support channels or leave feedback on the Actor's page.

#### **Is it legal to scrape Jobindex.dk data?**

It is legal to scrape publicly available data such as job titles, employers, locations and ad texts. Results may contain personal data (e.g. contact persons named in an ad); scrape personal data only with a legitimate reason. Personal data is protected by the GDPR and the Danish Data Protection Act — consult your legal advisor if unsure.

# Actor input Schema

## `url` (type: `string`):

A Jobindex.dk search results URL (/jobsoegning...) with your filters applied, e.g. https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning?q=udvikler or https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning/storkoebenhavn?q=it.

## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

How many result pages to scrape (20 items each). Pagination via the ?page= query parameter (1-based).

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

Stop after this many jobs (0 = no limit: every job on the pages scraped). Useful to cap detail-page requests when detailedInfo is on.

## `detailedInfo` (type: `boolean`):

Visit each job's page for the full ad text, employment type and weekly hours. Ads hosted on jobindex.dk are parsed reliably; ads that link to an employer site are fetched once, best-effort (JobPosting data or main page text). Slower, one extra request per job.

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

Proxy settings. Defaults to Apify Proxy (auto). Switch to RESIDENTIAL only if results are empty.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "url": "https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning?q=udvikler",
  "maxPages": 1,
  "maxItems": 0,
  "detailedInfo": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "url": "https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning?q=udvikler",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}' |
apify call ocrad/jobindex-jobs-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,ocrad/jobindex-jobs-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
