Indeed Jobs Scraper

Indeed jobs by keyword and location with the full job description: title, company, salary range, remote flag, post time, and job type.

For recruiters, sales teams, and labor-market analysts. Every run tells you plainly what worked and what did not: no silent empty runs.

What you can do with it

• Salary benchmarks: compare salaryMin and salaryMax by role and city.
• Hiring signals for sales: find companies that hire for roles you sell to.
• Job boards and alerts: collect fresh jobs with postedAt and the full description.
• Skills and AI analysis: feed full descriptions to an LLM to pull out skills, tools, and seniority.

Examples come from a real run. Every row has every field; a value the page did not show is null, never guessed.

One query gave about 40 jobs on page 1 in our tests. Use Date posted, Sort by, and Distance from location to narrow them.

Pricing

Pay per result: $3.00 per 1,000 rows, plus $0.001 per run start. No subscription.

Event	When	Price
Actor start	Once per run (per GB of memory; the default 256 MB counts as one)	$0.001
Result row	Each row saved to the dataset	$0.003

Example	Rows	Cost
10 jobs	10	$0.001 + $0.03 = $0.031
100 jobs	100	$0.001 + $0.30 = $0.301
1,000 jobs	1,000	$0.001 + $3.00 = $3.001

• Retries after a bot check or a temporary error cost you nothing. You pay only for rows saved.
• An input that fails after all retries saves one error row (one row charge), so you can see what failed and why.
• On Apify's free plan a run stops at 20 rows. Any paid Apify plan removes this limit.
• Set Max total charge per run in the run options. The Actor stops cleanly at that limit and keeps every row saved so far.

What you can count on

• Same columns on every row. Missing values are null, so spreadsheets and databases never break.
• No silent failures. An input that fails gets an error row with errorCode and a plain-language errorMessage. The other inputs keep running.
• A clear run summary. The run status says how many results were saved, how many inputs failed, and why. The same numbers are saved as the RUN_SUMMARY record in the run's key-value store, for automations.
• Automatic retries. Bot checks and temporary errors are retried with a fresh request before an input counts as failed.
• Limits respected. Max results and your spending limit stop the run cleanly.

Use it from code, automations, and AI agents

API (returns the rows when the run finishes):

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/plumblinedata~indeed-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"queries": ["software engineer"], "location": "Austin, TX", "radius": 25, "postedWithin": "7", "sortBy": "date", "maxResults": 10}'

Python (pip install apify-client):

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("plumblinedata/indeed-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={"queries": ["software engineer"], "location": "Austin, TX", "radius": 25, "postedWithin": "7", "sortBy": "date", "maxResults": 10})
for row in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(row)

JavaScript (npm install apify-client):

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('plumblinedata/indeed-jobs-scraper').call({"queries": ["software engineer"], "location": "Austin, TX", "radius": 25, "postedWithin": "7", "sortBy": "date", "maxResults": 10});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

No-code: connect the Actor in Make, Zapier, n8n, or Google Sheets through Apify's integrations, or add a webhook to get notified when a run finishes.

AI agents (MCP): add https://mcp.apify.com?tools=plumblinedata/indeed-jobs-scraper to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. The agent can call this Actor as a tool with the same input as above.

Limitations

• description is null in the rare case a job page could not be loaded; the rest of the row is still filled.
• Salary is empty when the listing shows none.
• About 40 jobs per search query: Indeed blocks later result pages for visitors who are not signed in.

FAQ

How do I get more than 40 jobs? Split the search: add more specific queries (one per line), run several locations, or use Date posted to collect new jobs every day on a schedule.

What does an error row mean? It marks an input that failed after retries. errorCode is short (blocked, empty_result, not_available, http_404, or invalid_... for a bad ID or URL) and errorMessage says what to do. Remove error rows with a filter on type.

Can I run it on a schedule? Yes. Create a task with your input in Apify Console, then add a schedule (for example every day at 8:00).

Is it legal to collect this data? The Actor reads public pages that anyone can open without logging in. You are responsible for how you use the data, including copyright, personal data rules such as GDPR, and the site's terms. If you are not sure, ask a lawyer.
