## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. 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.

# README

## Remote Job Listings Aggregator API — WWR, RemoteOK & Remotive

Fetch fresh remote job listings from **We Work Remotely, RemoteOK, and Remotive** in one call, normalized to structured JSON — company, title, region, category, and the full description, ready for a job board, alert bot, or recruiting pipeline.

### What you can use this for

- **Job alert bots** — get notified the moment a new listing matches your keyword, across three boards at once instead of one.
- **Recruiting/sourcing tools** — pull structured company + role data instead of scraping HTML by hand.
- **Market research** — track hiring trends and role mentions in the remote job market over time.

### Input

| Field | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| `sources` | Which job boards to fetch: `weworkremotely`, `remoteok`, `remotive` | all three |
| `categories` | We Work Remotely category slugs to fetch (only used if `weworkremotely` is selected) | `remote-programming-jobs` |
| `keyword` | Only keep listings matching this text (optional) | — |
| `maxResults` | Max listings to return, across all sources combined | `100` |

Every field has a working default — hit **Start** with no changes and you'll get results.

### Output

One row per listing:

```json
{
  "source": "remoteok",
  "company": "Samsara",
  "title": "Staff Software Engineer",
  "region": "Worldwide",
  "category": "engineering, backend",
  "description": "plain-text job description",
  "postedAt": "2026-09-06T03:47:24+00:00",
  "url": "https://remoteok.com/remote-jobs/..."
}
```

### Pricing

Pay-per-event: **$0.015 per listing fetched**. No subscription, no minimum.

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 = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("rumi7911/remote-jobs-monitor").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();

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call rumi7911/remote-jobs-monitor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,rumi7911/remote-jobs-monitor"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
