Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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 ## Arbetsformedlingen.se Jobs Scraper: Extract Swedish Job Listings at Scale **Excerpt:** Scrape structured job data from Arbetsformedlingen.se — Sweden's official public employment service. Extract titles, descriptions, skills, salary, workplace, and 25+ fields per listing. Perfect for labor market analysis, recruitment tools, and HR research. --- ### What Is Arbetsformedlingen.se? Arbetsformedlingen (the Swedish Public Employment Service) operates Sweden's largest official job board — Platsbanken — listing thousands of vacancies across all industries and regions. As a government-run platform, it provides highly structured, reliable job data that reflects the real state of the Swedish labor market. Manually collecting this data at scale is impractical; the **Arbetsformedlingen Jobs Scraper** automates extraction from Platsbanken search result pages, delivering clean, structured records ready for analysis or integration. --- ### Overview The **Arbetsformedlingen Jobs Scraper** targets Platsbanken search result URLs and extracts full job details from each listing found on those pages. It is suited for: - **Recruiters & staffing agencies** monitoring Swedish job market demand - **Labor market researchers** analyzing occupation trends by region - **Developers** building job aggregators or Swedish employment dashboards - **HR analysts** benchmarking skills requirements and salary types across sectors With support for paginated search URLs, configurable item limits, and fault-tolerant URL handling, it is designed for both one-off exports and recurring data pipelines. --- ### Input Format The scraper accepts a JSON configuration: ```json { "urls": [ "https://arbetsformedlingen.se/platsbanken/annonser?q=Stockholms%20l%C3%A4n&page=2" ], "ignore_url_failures": true, "max_items_per_url": 50 } ```` | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `urls` | `array` | One or more Platsbanken search result page URLs. Supports regional filters, keyword queries, and pagination (e.g., `?q=Stockholms+l%C3%A4n&page=2`). Add URLs one by one or use bulk edit. | | `max_items_per_url` | `integer` | Maximum number of job listings to collect per URL. Default: `20`. Set higher (e.g., `50`) for broader sweeps. | | `ignore_url_failures` | `boolean` | If `true`, failed URLs are skipped without stopping the run. Recommended for bulk URL lists. Default: `true`. | > **Tip:** Use Platsbanken's built-in filters (region, occupation, employment type) to scope your search URL before pasting it into the scraper. Paginate by incrementing the `page` parameter. *** ### Output Format **Sample output** ```json { "application": { "email": "Peter@tecreacare.com", "information": null, "mail": null, "other": null, "reference": null, "web_address": "http://www.tecreacare.com" }, "company": { "city": null, "email": null, "name": "Te Crea Care AB", "organisation_number": "5569368607", "phone_number": null, "post_code": null, "street_address": null, "web_address": "http://www.tecreacare.com" }, "conditions": null, "contacts": [], "description": "

Set `max_items_per_url` to control volume per page. 4. **Run and export** — Start the scraper and download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel. **Common issues:** - Ensure URLs point to Platsbanken *search result* pages, not individual job detail pages. - URL-encode special characters in query strings (e.g., `ä` → `%C3%A4`, space → `%20`). - If a region returns no results, verify the filter is applied correctly in the browser before copying the URL. *** ### Use Cases & Business Value - **Regional labor analysis:** Track hiring volume and occupation demand across Swedish counties (län) - **Skills mapping:** Aggregate required skills across industries for workforce planning - **Salary benchmarking:** Collect salary type and description data to inform compensation strategies - **Job board integration:** Feed Swedish public job data into multilingual aggregator platforms - **Academic research:** Study employment trends, language requirements, or occupational shifts over time Because Arbetsformedlingen is a government source, the data tends to be well-structured and consistent — making it particularly valuable for quantitative research and automated pipelines. *** ### Conclusion The **Arbetsformedlingen Jobs Scraper** gives you programmatic access to Sweden's official public job market data. With 28 structured output fields and support for filtered, paginated search URLs, it transforms Platsbanken listings into actionable datasets in minutes. Whether you're building recruitment tools or conducting labor market research, this scraper delivers reliable, government-sourced Swedish job data at scale. # Actor input Schema ## `urls` (type: `array`): Add the URLs of the Jobs list urls you want to scrape.
