Indeed Jobs Scraper - 62 Countries, Full Descriptions

Indeed Jobs Scraper

Indeed jobs from 62 country sites for $1.49 per 1,000 results, or $1.43 per 1,000 on the Bronze plan. Apify's public run stats for the 30 days to 24 September 2026 show 51 of 51 runs succeeded, with none failed, aborted or timed out. Each job has 44 fields, including the full description, the salary range, a street address with coordinates, and employer size.

Search by keyword and location, or paste Indeed URLs: searches, single job pages and company job pages. You can filter by date posted, job type, remote, salary and experience level. Jobs that fail a filter are dropped before they reach your dataset, so you only pay for jobs that match. You do not need an Indeed account or your own proxies. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel or XML.

Who uses it	What they scrape Indeed for
Recruiters	Monitor competitor job postings and salary bands in a specific city.
Job boards	Aggregate listings from Indeed alongside other sources for a niche site.

What it does

This Actor collects Indeed job listings by search query, location, or direct URL, and returns each one as a flat row with title, company, location, salary, and description.

• 🔍 Search filters: job title, location, country, job type, date posted, remote, salary, experience level, and sort order.
• 🌐 Multi-country support: 62 Indeed country sites, including the US, United Kingdom (GB or UK), Canada, Australia, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Ireland, India, Japan, Brazil, Mexico, and more. An unsupported country fails the run right away, with nothing charged.
• 📅 Date filtering: limit results to jobs posted in the last 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 14 days.
• 💰 Salary filter: set a minimum annual salary threshold from $30k to $130k+.
• 🔗 Direct URL input: paste Indeed search URLs, company jobs URLs, or job detail URLs (viewjob?jk=...), one or many, from any supported country site.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Common complaints about Indeed scrapers, and what this Actor does

Apart from "it does not work", the 1 and 2 star reviews of Indeed scrapers on Apify name four specific problems. Here is how this Actor handles each one. The numbers come from six test runs on 24 September 2026 (build 1.0.92, 92 jobs in total).

UK runs that return US jobs

Set country to GB or UK and the search runs on uk.indeed.com. A start URL keeps its own site, so a uk.indeed.com URL returns UK jobs even if the country field says US. Each row has a countryCode you can check. In our test, a search for nurse in London with country GB returned 20 jobs, and all 20 had countryCode GB. If you pick a country the Actor does not support, the run stops with an error. It does not fall back to US jobs.

Runs that never stop

A run ends when it reaches maxItems (10 by default) or when Indeed has no more results. The default timeout is 600 seconds, and you can set a lower one in the run options. Our six test runs collected 10 to 20 jobs each and took between 2.6 and 4.5 seconds.

Missing job descriptions

description and descriptionText hold the full plain-text description, and descriptionHTML keeps the original formatting. Every one of the 92 jobs in our test runs had a description. The shortest was 2,455 characters and the average was 5,515.

Being billed for nothing

You pay for each job written to your dataset and for nothing else. A run that finds no jobs ends as FAILED and is not charged. An unsupported country or URL fails before the Actor sends a single request, so that is not charged either. In the six test runs, the charged count matched the dataset row count exactly: 92 charged, 92 rows.

How it compares

This Actor offers search filters, multi-country support, and direct URL input. Here is how it compares to other Indeed scrapers on Apify based on their public listings.

Configure the run

Drive the Actor from a direct Indeed URL or build a search with job title, location, and filters. Filters run as each listing is read so only matches reach your dataset. The Input tab lists every parameter.

Each example below was run on 24 September 2026, and the result is noted under it. maxItems counts jobs for the whole run, not per URL.

1. First run with the prefilled input. Returned 10 US jobs in 4.2 seconds.

{
  "startUrl": "https://www.indeed.com/jobs?q=software+engineer&l=New+York%2C+NY&sort=date",
  "maxItems": 10,
  "country": "US"
}

2. UK nursing jobs in London from the last 7 days. Returned 20 jobs, all with countryCode GB, in 2.8 seconds.

{
  "searchQuery": "nurse",
  "location": "London",
  "country": "GB",
  "datePosted": "7",
  "maxItems": 20
}

3. Remote full-time customer service jobs in the US, newest first. Returned 20 jobs, all with remoteLocation true, in 4.5 seconds.

{
  "searchQuery": "customer service",
  "country": "US",
  "remoteFilter": "1",
  "jobType": "fulltime",
  "sortBy": "date",
  "maxItems": 20
}

4. Single job pages from different countries, plus a search. Returned 12 jobs: 1 from the US, 1 from the UK and 10 from Germany, in 2.6 seconds. URLs are read in order, so put single job URLs before searches. Job links stop working when the posting closes, so swap in your own jk values.

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=b8893114ef03ebc2",
    "https://uk.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=ae8383c8fe759822",

}

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check that your search filters are not too restrictive. Try removing the salary, experience level, or date posted filter and run again. Also verify the location spelling matches Indeed's format.

The Actor is returning fewer results than I expected.

Indeed sometimes caps the number of pages it shows for a search. Try narrowing your search with more specific keywords or a smaller location radius to get more complete results within the visible range.

I'm getting an error about the Start URL.

Make sure the URL is an Indeed search, company jobs, or job detail (viewjob?jk=...) page on a supported country site, such as www.indeed.com, uk.indeed.com, or indeed.de. The run fails with the list of supported countries if the site is not supported, and nothing is charged.

The run is taking a long time.

Large maxItems values and broad searches will take longer. Reduce the maxItems or add more filters to speed up the run. The Actor processes listings sequentially to avoid rate limiting.

Some job descriptions are missing or truncated.

Indeed occasionally changes its page layout. If you notice missing fields, try re-running the Actor. If the issue persists, report it through Apify support so the parser can be updated.

Next step

Each row carries the fields that these ParseForge jobs Actors take as input:

• Every open role at that employer, from its own ATS. Take company (or corporateWebsite when present), find the company's careers page (Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, Ashby and 16 more ATS are supported) and paste it into careerSiteUrls of Career Site Jobs Scraper. It returns everything the employer lists on its own site, including roles never posted on Indeed, with salary and a geocoded location.
• Company rating and salary estimate. Put company into companyName of Glassdoor Jobs Scraper to get that employer's Glassdoor rating, salary estimates and its other open roles.
• Pay benchmark for the same role. For tech employers, pass company as a Levels.fyi company slug (for example google) in companies of Levels.fyi Salary Scraper, with the job family that matches title (for example software-engineer) in jobFamilies. You get base, stock and bonus by level to set against the posted salary.
