How the Indeed review export works

flowchart LR
    A[Indeed company URL] --> B[Load review page<br/>with fingerprinted browser]
    B --> C[Parse server rendered<br/>review HTML]
    C --> D[Extract pros, cons,<br/>rating, job title]
    D --> E[Paginate via<br/>start parameter]
    E --> F[(JSON / CSV / Excel)]

The actor opens each Indeed company review page in a real browser, parses the server rendered HTML directly, and extracts structured data from each review card. It paginates through ?start=N (20 reviews per page) with built in delays to stay under Cloudflare rate limits.

Quick start

Export recent reviews for one company:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapemint~indeed-review-intelligence/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "companyUrls": [
      { "url": "https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Google/reviews" }
    ],
    "maxReviews": 200,
    "sortBy": "NEWEST"
  }'

Compare your company against 2 competitors, pulling only 1 and 2 star reviews:

{
  "companyUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Google/reviews" },
    { "url": "https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Microsoft/reviews" },
    { "url": "https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Amazon-com/reviews" }
  ],
  "maxReviews": 200,
  "filterByRating": "1"
}

Pull only the most helpful reviews sorted by votes:

{
  "companyUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Tesla/reviews" }
  ],
  "maxReviews": 100,
  "sortBy": "MOST_HELPFUL"
}

What one review record looks like

{
  "rating": 4,
  "reviewTitle": "Great engineering culture but work life balance varies",
  "pros": "Smart coworkers, interesting projects, good compensation, free food and perks",
  "cons": "Long hours during launch periods, promotion process can feel opaque",
  "reviewText": null,
  "jobTitle": "Software Engineer",
  "employmentStatus": "Current Employee",
  "location": "Mountain View, CA",
  "reviewDate": "March 12, 2026",
  "helpfulCount": 23,
  "hasCompanyResponse": false,

  "sourceUrl": "https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Google/reviews",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-04-17T10:15:33.221Z"
}

Pros and cons are separate fields so you can analyze them independently. Filter pros for what employees love, filter cons for recurring complaints. Every record also carries the company metadata for easy grouping across multi company exports.

Common workflows

• Quarterly employer brand audit. Schedule this actor on your own company page every quarter. Pull all reviews. Track how pros and cons shift over time. Spot department problems before they become attrition.
• Competitive talent intelligence. Pull your company plus 5 talent competitors. Filter by engineering, sales, or any role. See what employees praise about the rival that you don't offer yet.
• Recruiter pre vetting. Before pitching a candidate on a company, pull the latest 50 reviews. Filter by their role. Send the candidate a summary of what real employees say.
• Agency reporting. Pull 10 client companies in one session. Build a quarterly employer reputation report for each from the same dataset.
• Job seeker research. Export all reviews for a company you're considering. Filter by your target role and location. Read the real story, not the careers page.

Frequently asked questions

How do I scrape Indeed company reviews into a CSV or Excel file? Run this actor with an Indeed company review page URL and a review cap. Export the dataset as CSV or Excel from the Apify console or pull it via the API.

Is there an Indeed API that returns company reviews? No. Indeed's official APIs cover job posting management and applicant tracking only. They do not expose company review data. This actor scrapes the public review pages directly.

How do I export Indeed reviews for my company? Paste your company's Indeed review page URL into companyUrls. The actor loads every review page, extracts ratings, pros, cons, job titles, and employment status, and exports the full dataset.

How do I monitor my employer brand on Indeed? Schedule this actor on the Apify platform to run weekly or quarterly. Each run exports your latest reviews. Diff against the previous export to catch shifts in employee sentiment.

Can I compare multiple companies in one run? Yes. Pass every URL in companyUrls. Every record includes companyName and companyIndustry for easy grouping and ranking.

Can I filter by job title or department? The exported data includes a jobTitle field for each review. Filter the dataset by job title in your spreadsheet or BI tool to analyze sentiment for specific roles.

How do I find only negative Indeed reviews? Set filterByRating to 1 or 2 to pull only reviews with that star rating. Or export all reviews and filter by the rating field afterward.

What is the difference between pros and cons fields? Indeed reviews have separate "Pros" and "Cons" sections. This actor exports them as two independent fields so you can analyze what employees like and dislike separately.

How many reviews can I get per company? Indeed shows up to 1,000 reviews per company through their public pages. Set maxReviews to control the cap.

How fresh is the data? Live at query time. Every run pulls straight from Indeed.

Why residential proxies? Indeed uses Cloudflare protection. Datacenter proxies get challenged within a few requests. Residential proxies keep runs clean, and the actor ships with residential defaults.

What does "Attention Required" or "Just a moment" mean in the logs? Cloudflare detected the request as suspicious and served a challenge page. Switch to residential proxies in the input. The actor logs a warning and skips the blocked page.

How do I download Indeed reviews to Excel? Run the actor, then open your dataset in the Apify console. Click "Export" and choose Excel. You get one row per review with all fields: rating, pros, cons, job title, employment status, location, date, and helpful votes.

Can I track Indeed review sentiment over time? Schedule the actor to run weekly or monthly. Each run captures a scrapedAt timestamp. Append each export to your master file and chart average ratings, pros keywords, or cons keywords over time to spot trends.

How are Indeed reviews different from Glassdoor reviews? Indeed reviews split feedback into separate "Pros" and "Cons" fields, include helpful vote counts, and show employer responses. This actor exports all of those as structured data. Glassdoor reviews are on a different platform and require a separate tool.
