## 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

## ATS Job Postings Scraper — Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable

Scrape live job postings from any company's career board hosted on the four major ATS platforms. Give it company slugs or careers-page URLs; get back one normalized JSON row per job.

### Why this Actor

Company careers pages on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, and Workable are backed by public JSON APIs — the same ones their own job boards call. This Actor speaks all four, auto-detects the platform, and normalizes the output into a single schema. No browser, no proxies, no flakiness.

### Use cases

- **Sales prospecting / lead-gen** — companies hiring for a role are budget-active buyers of tools in that category. Track hiring signals across your target-account list.
- **Recruiting intelligence** — monitor competitor hiring by department, location, seniority.
- **Job boards & aggregators** — ingest normalized postings from thousands of boards.
- **Market research** — salary transparency data (Ashby compensation tiers included when published), remote-work trends, tech-stack signals from job descriptions.
- **Job seekers** — track dream-company boards daily with a scheduled run + filter.

### Input

```json
{
  "companies": [
    "https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe",
    "https://jobs.lever.co/spotify",
    "https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/openai",
    "https://apply.workable.com/blueground",
    "netflix"
  ],
  "titleFilter": "engineer",
  "locationFilter": "remote",
  "remoteOnly": false,
  "includeDescription": true
}
```

- **companies** — URLs or bare slugs (bare slugs are tried against all four platforms). Max 500 per run.
- **titleFilter / locationFilter** — case-insensitive substring filters.
- **remoteOnly** — only jobs flagged remote.
- **includeDescription** — set false for lighter datasets.

### Output (one row per job)

```json
{
  "company": "stripe",
  "platform": "greenhouse",
  "title": "Backend Engineer, Payments",
  "department": "Engineering",
  "location": "Toronto, Canada",
  "isRemote": false,
  "employmentType": "Full-time",
  "compensation": "$150K – $210K",
  "url": "https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe/jobs/123456",
  "publishedAt": "2026-06-28T14:02:11Z",
  "description": "Stripe is looking for...",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-07-05T09:00:00.000Z"
}
```

Boards that can't be found return a single `type: "error"` row naming the input, so batch runs never fail silently.

### Scheduling

Pair with Apify Schedules for daily monitoring. Combine `companies` list + `titleFilter` and export to Google Sheets / webhook for a zero-maintenance hiring-signals pipeline.

### Pricing

Pay-per-result: **$0.001 per job posting** ($1 per 1,000 jobs). A 50-company batch typically returns 1,000-5,000 postings in under 2 minutes.

### Fair use

This Actor reads only officially public job-board APIs intended for embedding. It sends no credentials, bypasses no auth, and respects each platform's public data surface.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "companies": [
    "https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe"
  ]
}' |
apify call pattonholdings/ats-job-postings-scraper --silent --output-dataset

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,pattonholdings/ats-job-postings-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).
