## Pricing

from $1.00 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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`).

Images, tags and other lists stay with their parent result instead of creating extra rows. Invalid or unavailable inputs, inputs with no results, and requests that fail after all retries produce a row with `status: failed`. At most one failed row is saved per input; it includes `error_code` and `error_message` explaining the outcome. A normal end of pagination after collected results does not add a failed row.

### Input requirements and collection settings ⚙️

| Setting | What to enter |
|---|---|
| **What to collect** (`mode`) | Choose the information to collect. |
| **Maximum results per search or link** (`maxResults`) | Collect up to this many results for each search or link. Minimum: 1. |
| **Job title or keywords** (`query`) | Words to search for in job listings. Leave empty to include all jobs. For Job Search. |
| **Location** (`location`) | City or region to search in. Leave empty to search all locations. For Job Search. |
| **Job listing links** (`jobUrls`) | Paste one link per line. Example: https://www.arbeitsagentur.de/jobsuche/jobdetail/20357-00004b02b77001-S For Job Details. |

| Collection mode | Fields to use |
|---|---|
| Job Details | **Job listing links** |
| Job Search | **Job title or keywords**, **Location** |

The result limit applies separately to each search or supplied link. Collection ends earlier when no more matching results are available.

### Bundesagentur für Arbeit scraping use cases 🎯

#### Hiring activity monitoring

Run repeat collections of Bundesagentur für Arbeit listings and compare vacancy titles and original links over time to identify newly advertised roles and changes in hiring activity.

#### Vacancy enrichment

Turn known Bundesagentur für Arbeit job links or supported identifiers into structured vacancy records for recruitment databases, job comparison tools and candidate research.

#### Advertised compensation research

Compare the compensation published in Bundesagentur für Arbeit records. Keep the original salary text, units and available pay-period context when preparing recruitment or labour-market reports.

#### Skills demand analysis

Analyse the skills, experience or qualifications actually published in Bundesagentur für Arbeit records to compare hiring requirements across role groups and prepare recruitment briefs.

#### Working-condition comparison

Compare the contract, schedule or benefit information published in Bundesagentur für Arbeit records when researching how employers present their opportunities.

### Pricing and saved-result behavior 💰

See the Actor's **Pricing** tab for the active pricing model and current rate. Store settings may change, so this README does not claim a fixed cost.

Under dataset-item pricing:

- Each collected item saved in the dataset is one result.
- Images, tags and other values attached to that item do not create additional rows.
- Automatic retry attempts do not create extra dataset rows.
- A saved `failed` row is also one billable dataset item, including invalid inputs, unavailable items, no results, or exhausted retries. At most one failed row is saved per input, including when some results were already collected.
- `maxResults` caps all saved rows for each input, including its failed row. Repeated copies of the same input are processed once. More inputs or a higher limit can produce more saved results.

### Bundesagentur für Arbeit scraper API and integrations 🔌

Replace `$ACTOR_ID` with the ID shown in the Actor API tab and `$APIFY_TOKEN` with your token.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/$ACTOR_ID/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"mode":"ba_search","query":"Buchhalter","location":"Berlin","maxResults":10}'
```

Use schedules for recurring collection, webhooks for completion notifications, and Apify integrations for Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, cloud storage, a CRM or your own application.

### Reliability, retries, and public-data limits ⚠️

Temporary connection errors, timeouts and access restrictions are retried automatically, up to five attempts. Invalid inputs save a failed row without an HTTP request; confirmed unavailable items save a failed row without unnecessary retries. Exhausted retries also save a failed row. Results already collected remain available if a later request fails, and normal pagination completion adds no error row. Collection also stops after two consecutive fully processed pages add no new results, even if the website provides another cursor. Required detail lookups are completed before checking a page; new results reset the counter, and independent reply branches are checked separately. Failures while initializing the Actor, saving data or scheduling requests stop the run instead of being reported as a failed website result.

Search rows and detailed advertisements have different depth. Salary values are available only where the source discloses them.

Bundesagentur für Arbeit controls which information is publicly available. Removed, private or restricted items may be unavailable, and optional values can be null or empty. A run can still fail if the results cannot be saved.

### Frequently asked questions ❓

#### Does it require an account on Bundesagentur für Arbeit?

No. You do not need to provide an account, password or login cookies. Only publicly available information is collected.

#### How does maxResults work?

It limits the number of saved results separately for every input. The minimum is 1. With maxResults set to 10, each input returns at most 10 available results. A detail lookup normally returns one record per input.

#### Which inputs and filters does this Actor support?

Search rows and detailed advertisements have different depth. Salary values are available only where the source discloses them.

#### When should I use Job Details instead of Job Search?

Use search to discover Bundesagentur für Arbeit vacancies and their listing fields. Use details for a known vacancy when you need the additional description and requirements that the advertisement publishes.

#### Why are some fields empty?

The website may not publish that value, or the field may belong to a different collection mode. Missing values remain null or empty instead of being guessed.

#### Can I export the results to a spreadsheet?

Yes. Download CSV, Excel or JSON from the Apify dataset. All returned fields are included in the same results table.

### Support and responsible use 🛟

For a reproducible issue, share the run ID, selected mode, result limit and a safe public example through the support channel. Never disclose access tokens, passwords or proxy credentials.

Use public Bundesagentur für Arbeit information lawfully and responsibly. Follow applicable privacy, copyright, data-protection, contractual and platform requirements when storing, analyzing or redistributing results.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config.
