## 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

## Greenhouse Jobs Scraper — Pay Per Result

Scrape **published** Greenhouse job boards through the official Job Board API (`boards-api.greenhouse.io`). Paste board tokens or board URLs — multi-board batch in one run.

**Store search keywords:** Greenhouse scraper · Greenhouse jobs API · ATS jobs · boards.greenhouse.io · career page scraper

***

### Why this Actor

| Need | What you get |
|------|----------------|
| Many companies at once | Batch board tokens / URLs in one run |
| Clean structured jobs | Title, location, departments, offices, dates, URL, optional description |
| Failures that shouldn’t bill | 404 / empty boards / bad tokens → **not charged** |
| Low cost | HTTP-only (no Playwright); PPE priced from measured unit economics |

Public Job Board API only. No Greenhouse login. No application submission.

***

### Input

```json
{
  "boards": ["stripe", "https://boards.greenhouse.io/datadog"],
  "maxItemsPerBoard": 50,
  "includeContent": true,
  "titleContains": "engineer",
  "locationContains": "Remote"
}
```

Accepted board values:

- Token: `stripe`
- Board URL: `https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe`
- Job URL on a Greenhouse host: `https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe/jobs/123`
- Embed: `https://boards.greenhouse.io/embed/job_board?for=stripe`

Vanity career sites without a Greenhouse token in the URL are skipped (not charged) — pass the board token instead.

***

### Output fields

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `id` | Greenhouse job post id |
| `internalJobId` | Internal job id when present |
| `title` | Job title |
| `company` | Company name when exposed by the board |
| `boardToken` | Board token used for the request |
| `location` | Primary location string |
| `departments` / `offices` | Structured arrays |
| `absoluteUrl` | Public job URL |
| `updatedAt` / `firstPublished` | Timestamps when present |
| `descriptionHtml` / `description` | When `includeContent` is true |
| `metadata` | Custom board fields when employers expose them |

***

### Pricing

Pay-per-event for each **delivered** job row.

- Empty boards, 404 tokens, and parse failures → **not charged**
- Turn `includeContent` off for listing-only pulls (smaller payloads)

**~$0.50 / 1,000 jobs** on the Store pricing tab (HTTP-only; empty/404 boards free).

***

### Limitations (honest)

- Only **published** Job Board API posts — not Harvest/private ATS data
- You must know the board token (or a Greenhouse-hosted board URL)
- Some employers disable the public board or use a vanity domain without an extractable token
- Description HTML is whatever Greenhouse returns; formatting varies by employer

# Actor input Schema

## `boards` (type: `array`):

Greenhouse board tokens (e.g. "stripe") and/or board URLs (https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe). Multi-board batch in one run.

## `maxItemsPerBoard` (type: `integer`):

Cap after title/location filters. Greenhouse returns the full published board in one API call.

## `includeContent` (type: `boolean`):

If true, request content=true (HTML + plain-text description). Turn off for cheaper listing-only pulls.

## `titleContains` (type: `string`):

Optional case-insensitive title substring filter (e.g. "engineer").

## `locationContains` (type: `string`):

Optional case-insensitive location / office filter (e.g. "Remote", "New York").

## `dedupeAcrossBoards` (type: `boolean`):

Skip job ids already returned for a previous board in this run.

## `requestDelayMs` (type: `integer`):

Throttle between board API calls. Keep low — the API is public and fast.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional. Greenhouse Job Board API usually works without proxies.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "boards": [
    "stripe",
    "https://boards.greenhouse.io/datadog"
