## 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

## Indeed Jobs Scraper

Scrape **Indeed job listings** by keyword and location in 10 countries: job title, company, company rating, location, **structured salary (min / max / hourly or yearly)**, job types, benefits, schedules, posted date, remote, easy apply, sponsored flag and job URL. For job-market research, salary benchmarking, recruiting and lead generation.

### Why this scraper

- **Structured salary** — not just text: `salaryMin`, `salaryMax`, `salaryPeriod`, `salaryCurrency`.
- **Benefits & schedules** extracted per job.
- **Deduplicated** — every job appears once per search.
- **Pay only for jobs delivered** — empty searches are free.

### Input

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `queries` | Job titles / keywords (Indeed's "What" box) |
| `location` | City, state, ZIP or "Remote"; empty = whole country |
| `country` | US, GB, CA, AU, IN, DE, FR, IE, NZ, SG |
| `maxJobsPerQuery` | Up to 200 |
| `postedWithinDays`, `radius`, `sortByDate`, `skipSponsored` | Filters |

### How many jobs per search?

Indeed shows anonymous visitors only the first page of results. This scraper combines sort orders and filters (newest, job types, experience levels) to collect **typically 60-120 unique jobs per search**. For more, add more locations or keyword variations (e.g. "registered nurse", "RN", "ICU nurse").

### Output

```json
{"jobId": "1d9d5ad6081ee5e0", "title": "Data Analyst", "company": "Acme", "companyRating": 3.9,

 "jobTypes": ["Full-time"], "benefits": ["Health insurance", "401(k)"], "schedules": ["Monday to Friday"],

 "url": "https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=1d9d5ad6081ee5e0"}
```

### Pricing

# Actor input Schema

## `queries` (type: `array`):

What you'd type in Indeed's 'What' box: job title, keywords or company.

## `location` (type: `string`):

City, state, ZIP or 'Remote'. Leave empty for the whole country.

## `country` (type: `string`):

Which Indeed site to search.

## `maxJobsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

Indeed shows anonymous visitors only its first results page, so the scraper combines sort orders and filters to collect up to ~60-120 jobs per search. For more, add more locations or keywords.

## `postedWithinDays` (type: `string`):

Only jobs posted in this period.

## `radius` (type: `integer`):

Search radius around the location. Leave empty for Indeed's default (25).

## `sortByDate` (type: `boolean`):

Sort by date instead of relevance.

## `skipSponsored` (type: `boolean`):

Leave out paid/promoted listings.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "queries": [
        "data analyst"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("potato_44/indeed-jobs-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "queries": ["data analyst"] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("potato_44/indeed-jobs-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "queries": [
    "data analyst"
  ]
}' |
apify call potato_44/indeed-jobs-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,potato_44/indeed-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).
