They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. 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. Actors are written with capital "A". ## 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. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. - **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use). - **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`. - **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`. - **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`. - **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ![reapX — public sources in, addressable records out](https://reapx.dev/reapx.gif) ## Remote Jobs Scraper · Remote Openings, Salary, Tags & Company **Remote Jobs Scraper** extracts real-time remote job openings, hiring company names, salary ranges, skill tags, categories, location requirements, and direct application links from the Remotive API (`https://remotive.com/api/remote-jobs`). Every extracted record maps the employer to a clean `companyName` field, enabling entity-level page generation and cross-dataset aggregation. > Maintained by **reapX**. Every row cites the Apify run that produced it — nothing is > inferred, modelled or filled in, and a field absent from the source is absent from the row. > The extracted archive for this source is browsable at > [reapx.dev/data/remote-jobs-scraper/](https://reapx.dev/data/remote-jobs-scraper/) and mirrored as an open dataset on > [Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/datasets/reapxdev/remote-jobs-scraper) and > [Kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/reapxdev/remote-jobs-scraper).

Citation guarantee & archive links. *** ### Key Features & Capabilities - **Direct Public API Extraction**: Fetches job listings directly over lightweight HTTP without requiring headless browser overhead or complex page rendering. - **Entity Page Ready (`companyName`)**: Emits `companyName` on every row, fully validated by `growth/entity_pages.py` for automated entity page indexing. - **Salary Transparency**: Captures published salary ranges and hourly compensation rates, with built-in filtering for pay transparency analysis. - **Skill & Technology Tagging**: Extracts full technology stack tags (e.g. `python`, `react`, `aws`, `figma`, `kubernetes`, `solidity`). - **Flexible Filtering**: Query jobs by official Remotive categories (`software-dev`, `design`, `marketing`, `data`, `sales`, etc.), search keywords, company name substrings, or tag matches. - **Dataset Views**: Includes four tailored Console dataset views: *Overview*, *Companies Hiring*, *Positions with Disclosed Pay*, and *Full Remote Job Details*. - **Flat Pay-Per-Event Billing**: Only pay per successfully returned job posting with 6 automatic volume discount tiers (`FREE` through `DIAMOND`). *** ### ⬇️ Input The actor accepts standard JSON input parameters to filter and control job extraction. All filter fields are optional; leaving them empty fetches remote jobs across all categories and companies. #### Input Parameters | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | `category` | String | `""` | Filter job listings by official Remotive category slug (e.g., `software-dev`, `design`, `data`, `marketing`, `sales`, `product`).

Remotive updates its public API listings continuously throughout the day. Running this scraper daily guarantees complete coverage of new remote openings. ##### Does this scraper require API keys or paid credentials? No. This scraper extracts data from Remotive's public endpoint over HTTP without needing any API key or subscription. ##### How does pricing work? The actor uses Pay-Per-Event billing at $0.002 per returned job row (plus a fixed $0.00005 start event). If a query returns zero results or encounters a block, nothing is charged for data items. ##### Can I filter by specific tech stacks like React or Python? Yes. You can pass keywords into `search` or `tagFilter` to isolate specific technologies, frameworks, or languages. *** ### 💬 Your feedback We continuously improve our scrapers based on user feedback.

We have a ``` ### ⚠️ Run outcomes and error handling This Actor reports what happened in the run's **status message**, and it always keeps whatever it collected. These are the outcomes you can get and what each one means. | Outcome | What it means | |---|---| | **Success** | Rows were returned and you were charged `job-returned` at $0.002 per row. | | **No matches** | The source returned nothing for your filters. **Nothing is charged.** Widen the date window or drop a filter. | | **Partial - source refused** | The source rate-limited or refused some requests. The affected items are skipped and named in the log, and **everything already collected is still pushed**. A block never discards a run's work. | #### What is guaranteed either way - **Every row is pushed as it is built**, not buffered to the end of the run. Anything that buffers output loses everything to a timeout, a block or a migration; this does not. - **A field absent from the source is absent from the row.** Nothing is inferred, modelled or filled in to make a row look complete. # Actor input Schema ## `category` (type: `string`): Filter job listings by official Remotive job category slug (e.g. software-dev, design, marketing, data, devops, product). Consequence: Selecting a specific category narrows returned job postings to that domain; leaving this field empty fetches remote job openings across all available categories without restriction.

Learn more at remotive.com. ## `search` (type: `string`): Full-text search keyword matched against job title, company name, skill tags, or job description (e.g. python, react, senior, engineer). Consequence: Keyword filtering returns only matching remote positions; leaving this field empty returns all open remote positions across the board.

See Remotive for search syntax.

Leave this field empty to skip this filter. ## `companyNameFilter` (type: `string`): Filter remote job openings by company or employer name (e.g. Lemon.io, Workada, Outsite). Consequence: Narrows output to specific hiring companies; leaving this field empty includes job postings from all hiring employers.

Check employer names on Remotive.

Leave this field empty to skip this filter. ## `tagFilter` (type: `string`): Filter jobs by technology stack or skill tag (e.g. python, golang, javascript, node.js, ai/ml). Consequence: Limits output to jobs tagged with this technology; leaving this field empty includes jobs regardless of tags.

See available tags on Remotive.

Leave this field empty to skip this filter. ## `mustHaveSalary` (type: `boolean`): Only return remote job postings that specify a clear salary range or hourly compensation rate. Consequence: Filters out jobs without disclosed pay; leaving this disabled (false) returns all jobs whether salary is published or not.

Salary transparency details on Remotive. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum total number of remote job postings returned in the dataset output (e.g. 100, 200, 500). Consequence: Higher limits take slightly longer to process and return more records, while lower limits run faster and cost less. Leaving empty uses default 200 limit.

Adjust capacity based on your pipeline needs.

The higher the number, the longer the run takes and the more you are charged, because you pay per row returned. ## Actor input object example ```json { "maxItems": 200 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): Every remote job posting record found by this run, one row per item, in the default dataset.
