## 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

## MyCareersFuture Singapore Jobs Scraper

Job postings from Singapore's national job portal, run by Workforce Singapore.
**Official open API — no key, no login, no proxy.**

### Salary is included

Most job sources hide pay. This one publishes it, and every posting carries it:

```json
"salary_min": 6000,
"salary_max": 7500,
"salary_type": "Monthly"
```

In testing, **200 of 200** postings came back with a full salary range.

### What you get

| Field | Example |
| --- | --- |
| `title`, `company` | Senior Consultant, SAP ASIA PTE. LTD. |
| `company_uen` | 200909004C — Singapore company registration number |
| `salary_min`, `salary_max`, `salary_type` | 6000, 7500, Monthly |
| `employment_types`, `position_levels` | \["Permanent", "Full Time"], \["Professional"] |
| `categories` | \["Consulting"] |
| `skills`, `key_skills` | \["Oracle Cloud", "Oracle Support"] |
| `min_years_experience`, `vacancies` | 4, 2 |
| `street`, `building`, `postal_code` | STRAITS VIEW, MARINA ONE WEST TOWER, 018937 |
| `ssoc_code` | 33499 — Singapore Standard Occupational Classification |
| `posted_at`, `updated_at`, `expires_at` | ISO timestamps |
| `views`, `applications` | engagement counts |
| `job_post_id`, `uuid`, `url` | MCF-2026-1294347 |

`company_uen` is the useful one for lead generation: it joins straight to
Singapore's ACRA company registry.

### Sweep the whole board

Leave the search terms empty and you get everything — **about 85,500 open
postings**:

```json
{ "searchTerms": [], "maxJobsPerTerm": 5000 }
```

Or target roles:

```json
{
  "searchTerms": ["developer", "data analyst"],
  "maxJobsPerTerm": 500,
  "sortBy": "min_monthly_salary"
}
```

### Options

| Option | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| **Search terms** | Keywords, searched one at a time. Empty means the whole board. |
| **Max jobs per term** | Collected 100 per request; paging works deep into the results. |
| **Sort by** | Newest first, or highest salary first. |
| **Include full job description** | Adds the description as plain text. Costs no extra requests. |

### Notes

- Sorting by salary really does sort by salary — the top of an `engineer` search
  runs 30000, 23000, 22160, 21000 per month.
- Only publicly posted listings are read; no login and no account are used.
- Runs stop cleanly before the platform timeout and keep everything collected so
  far, rather than failing.

### Pricing

Pay per result: one `job` event per posting returned.

### Support

Found a field that stopped populating, or a search that returns nothing? Open an
issue on the Actor's page and include the input you used.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchTerms` (type: `array`):

Keywords to search, for example developer or nurse. Each term is searched separately. Leave this empty to sweep the whole board, which holds roughly 85,000 open postings.

## `maxJobsPerTerm` (type: `integer`):

How many postings to collect for each term, fetched 100 per request. Paging keeps working deep into the results, so large numbers are fine.

## `sortBy` (type: `string`):

new\_posting\_date returns the newest postings first. min\_monthly\_salary returns the highest paying first.

## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`):

Add the full job description as plain text. It is already in the response, so this costs no extra requests, but it makes each row much larger.

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

Optional. This is an open government API and works without a proxy.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searchTerms": [
    "developer",
    "data analyst"
  ],
  "maxJobsPerTerm": 100,
  "sortBy": "new_posting_date",
  "includeDescription": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `jobs` (type: `string`):

No description

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "searchTerms": [
        "developer",
        "data analyst"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("straightforward_hydra/mycareersfuture-jobs-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "searchTerms": [
        "developer",
        "data analyst",
    ] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("straightforward_hydra/mycareersfuture-jobs-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "searchTerms": [
    "developer",
    "data analyst"
  ]
}' |
apify call straightforward_hydra/mycareersfuture-jobs-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,straightforward_hydra/mycareersfuture-jobs-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
