Naukri Jobs Scraper — India Job Listings & Data API 🇮🇳

🎉 Search live Naukri jobs by keyword and city — salary band, experience, skills and vacancies for every job

Built for recruiters, talent-sourcing teams, HR analysts and job aggregators who need fresh India job data without copy-paste

🔍 What is the Naukri Jobs Scraper — and when should you use it?

The Naukri Jobs Scraper turns a Naukri job search into clean, structured rows you can filter, export and feed into a spreadsheet, database or AI agent. No account, no portal API key, no browser automation to maintain.

Use it when you need: live Indian job postings for a role or skill, with the hiring company, city, salary band, experience range, key skills, vacancy count and posting date.

Use something else when: you need jobs from Indeed, LinkedIn or Glassdoor, or from outside India. Use Jobs Search API for that.

🤖 Use with AI agents

Already connected to the Apify MCP server? Just ask for this Actor by name: sian.agency/naukri-jobs-scraper

Your agent can pay for its own runs. This Actor is eligible for agentic payments, so an agent can discover it, run it and settle the bill over x402 (USDC on Base) or Skyfire — without an Apify account or API token of its own. Billing is the same either way: per job delivered.

Otherwise copy this prompt into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP-enabled assistant:

I want a list of live job openings in India for a role, using the Apify Actor `sian.agency/naukri-jobs-scraper`.

Use it when I need: Naukri job postings with company, city, salary band, experience range, skills, vacancies and posting date.

Don't use it when: I need jobs from Indeed, LinkedIn or Glassdoor, or outside India — use `sian.agency/jsearch-jobs-scraper` instead.

How to call it: set "scrapeMode" to "search", then give either a "keyword" (optionally with a "city" and filters such as "experience", "jobAge", "wfhType" or "ctcFilter"), or paste Naukri search-result URLs in "searchUrls". Each page holds about 20 jobs.

Start with this input:
{
  "scrapeMode": "search",
  "keyword": "data analyst",
  "city": "Bangalore",
  "jobAge": "7",
  "maxPages": 2,
  "maxResults": 40
}

Ask me which role and city I care about, then run the Actor and summarise the results as a table.

Things you can ask your agent for:

• "Find remote Python developer jobs posted on Naukri this week and list the companies hiring."
• "Compare the salary bands for data analyst jobs in Bangalore and Pune."
• "Which skills show up most often in product manager openings in Mumbai?"

Machine-readable API, MCP config and OpenAPI definition for this Actor are published at apify.com/sian.agency/naukri-jobs-scraper.md.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many jobs can I extract? A: FREE tier: 25 per run. PAID tier: unlimited. Each result page holds about 20 jobs, so raise maxPages for bigger pulls.

Q: Do I need a Naukri account or API key? A: No. Just run the actor.

Q: What output formats are available? A: JSON, CSV and Excel, exported straight from the Apify dataset.

Q: Why is the salary sometimes empty? A: Many employers hide the salary band. For those jobs salary_disclosed is false and the salary fields stay empty rather than showing 0.

Q: Can I fetch a single job by its link or ID? A: Not right now. Job details mode is temporarily unavailable. Search for the role and company instead, and every matching job comes back with its link.

Q: How long does a run take? A: About a minute for two pages (around 40 jobs).

Q: Is this legal? A: We only extract publicly available job listings. See the legal note below.

🐛 Troubleshooting

Fewer jobs than requested

• Your search may have fewer live matches than maxResults. Widen the keyword, drop a filter, or remove the city.
• Raise maxPages: each page holds about 20 jobs.

A pasted URL is rejected

• Use a search-results URL such as https://www.naukri.com/python-developer-jobs or https://www.naukri.com/jobs-in-pune, not a single job listing.

The run ends with a "blocked" message

• Naukri occasionally blocks a search. No jobs are billed on those runs, only the run-start fee. Wait a few minutes and run it again.

⚖️ Is it legal to scrape data?

Our actors are ethical and do not extract any private user data, such as email addresses, gender, or location. They only extract what the user has chosen to share publicly. We therefore believe that our actors, when used for ethical purposes by Apify users, are safe.

However, you should be aware that your results could contain personal data. Personal data is protected by the GDPR in the European Union and by other regulations around the world. You should not scrape personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so. If you're unsure whether your reason is legitimate, consult your lawyers.

You can also read Apify's blog post on the legality of web scraping.
