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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Apna.co Jobs Scraper: Extract Indian Tech Job Data at Scale --- ### What Is Apna.co? Apna.co is India's leading peer-to-peer hiring platform, connecting millions of job seekers with employers across tech, sales, customer service, and operations. It hosts thousands of active listings ranging from entry-level positions to senior leadership roles. Manually extracting structured data from individual job postings is inefficient; the **Apna.co Jobs Scraper** automates this entirely, returning clean, machine-readable records with 40+ fields per job. --- ### Overview The **Apna Jobs Scraper** extracts detailed job listing pages from Apna.co and converts unstructured HTML into structured JSON data. It is built for: - **Job aggregators** building multi-source job boards - **Talent analytics firms** analyzing hiring trends in India's tech sector - **Researchers** studying entry-level and mid-career hiring patterns - **Career platforms** enriching job data with salary and skills information Key strengths include minimal configuration (just URLs), resilient error handling via `ignore_url_failures`, and comprehensive output spanning salary, experience, location, skills, and company details. --- ### Input Format The scraper accepts a simple JSON configuration: ```json { "urls": [ "https://apna.co/job/bengaluru/tech-solns-arch-sr-specialist-advisor-1418194562" ], "ignore_url_failures": true } ```` | Field | Description | |---|---| | `urls` | Array of direct links to individual Apna job detail pages. Paste one or more full URLs. | | `ignore_url_failures` | If `true`, the scraper continues even if some URLs fail; if `false`, it stops on the first error. Recommended: `true` for bulk runs. | > **Tip:** Copy URLs directly from your browser address bar when viewing a job detail page on Apna.co. *** ### Output Format **Sample output** ```json { "created_on": "2026-04-08", "description": "$3c", "deep_link": "https://l.apna.co/Cxkmz4S4q2b", "job_department": "IT & Information Security", "job_category": "IT Security", "employment_type": "Full Time", "job_format": "ppj", "ui_tags": [ { "text": "Work from Office", "icon_link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_ui_tags/Work%20from%20office_xxhdpi.webp" }, { "text": "Full Time", "icon_link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_ui_tags/Full%20time_xxhdpi.webp" }, { "text": "Min. 10 years", "icon_link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_ui_tags/Experience_xxhdpi.webp" } ], "company_address": null, "rich_description": "$3e", "apply_job_cta_section_config": { "job_info": { "is_external": true, "type": "basic" }, "cta_config": { "text": "Apply on company website", "text_color": "#FFFFFF", "background_color": "#1F8268", "enabled": true, "cta_type": "external_jobs", "icon_url": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_detail_icons/ic_external_jobs.webp?format=webp", "icon_position": "right" } }, "job_lead_type": "basic", "job_highlights": "$undefined", "id": 1418194562, "title": "Technical Solutions Architect Specialist Advisor - SailPoint IIQ Developer", "last_updated": null, "organization": { "id": 740038, "name": "NTT DATA Global Delivery Services Ltd", "external_id": "6328b64d7b4732078715cdb8", "logo_url": "https://apna-organization-logos.gumlet.io/production/6328b64d7b4732078715cdb8?w=128" }, "address": { "city": "$undefined", "area": "$undefined", "line_one": "bangalore, KA, IN" }, "address_v2": { "city": { "id": "$undefined", "name": "Bengaluru/Bangalore" }, "area": "$undefined", "line_one": "bangalore, KA, IN" }, "max_salary": 0, "min_salary": 0, "salary_type": 3, "max_experience": 31, "min_experience": 10, "is_flexible_job": false, "is_wfh": false, "deposit": "$undefined", "status": 0, "location_type": "single_location", "computed_location_type": 0, "location_name": "Bengaluru/Bangalore", "is_external_job": true, "external_job_url": "https://careers-inc.nttdata.com/job/bangalore-Tech-Solns_-Arch_-Sr_-Specialist-Advisor-KA/1368636200/", "experience_in_years": "Min. 10 Years", "public_url_v2": "/job/bengaluru/tech-solns-arch-sr-specialist-advisor-1418194562", "job_email": null, "job_creator_name": null, "job_source_platform": null, "job_details_section": [ { "id": "job_role", "heading": "Job role", "sub_heading": "", "data": [ { "icon": { "link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_detail_icons/address.webp?format=webp", "width": 24, "height": 24 }, "title": "Work location", "subtitle": "bangalore, KA, IN\n", "subtitles": [ "bangalore, KA, IN\n" ] }, { "icon": { "link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_detail_icons/department.webp?format=webp", "width": 24, "height": 24 }, "title": "Department", "subtitle": "IT & Information Security", "subtitles": [ "IT & Information Security" ] }, { "icon": { "link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_detail_icons/sub_department.webp?format=webp", "width": 24, "height": 24 }, "title": "Role / Category", "subtitle": "IT Security", "subtitles": [ "IT Security" ] }, { "icon": { "link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_detail_icons/employment_type.webp?format=webp", "width": 24, "height": 24 }, "title": "Employment type", "subtitle": "Full Time", "subtitles": [ "Full Time" ] }, { "icon": { "link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_detail_icons/shift.webp?format=webp", "width": 24, "height": 24 }, "title": "Shift", "subtitle": "Day Shift", "subtitles": [ "Day Shift" ] } ] }, { "id": "job_requirement", "heading": "Job requirements", "sub_heading": "", "data": [ { "icon": { "link": "https://cdn.apna.co/mumbai_apnatime_prod/job_detail_icons/experience.webp?format=webp", "width": 24, "height": 24 }, "title": "Experience", "subtitle": "Min. 10 years", "subtitles": [ "Min. 10 years" ] } ] }, { "id": "about_company", "heading": "About company", "sub_heading": "", "data": [ { "icon": { "link": "https://apna-organization-logos.gumlet.io/production/6328b64d7b4732078715cdb8?w=128", "width": 25, "height": 25 }, "title": "Name", "subtitle": "NTT DATA Global Delivery Services Ltd", "subtitles": [ "NTT DATA Global Delivery Services Ltd" ] } ] } ], "category": "IT Security", "seo_title": "Tech Solns.
