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 ## EURES Jobs Scraper Scrape job vacancies from [EURES](https://europa.eu/eures/portal/jv-se/search), the official EU job mobility portal run by the European Commission and the European Labour Authority. EURES aggregates the public employment service feeds of 30+ European countries (VDAB, Forem, Actiris, Bundesagentur für Arbeit, UWV, and many more) into one searchable index of roughly 3 million live vacancies. One actor, one input format, jobs from the whole EU plus EEA countries. No login, no cookies. ### What you get - **Job title and full description** in the original posting language, HTML stripped to plain text - **Employer name** when the source feed provides it - **Locations** as country + NUTS region codes, plus city and postal code with detail enrichment - **Employment type** (fulltime, parttime) and contract type (directhire, contract, temporary...) - **Publication and modification dates** as ISO 8601 timestamps - **Application deadline, apply URL, and source feed** with detail enrichment - **Direct link** to the job page on the EURES portal ### Why EURES Most job scrapers cover one board in one country. EURES is the official aggregator: national public employment services push their vacancies into it, so a single query reaches Belgium, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Poland, the Nordics, and the rest of the EU/EEA at once. That makes it a practical base layer for cross-border recruiting, labour market research, and job aggregation products. ### How to scrape EURES data 1. Open the actor and set a **Search Query** (any language works: `software engineer`, `verpleegkundige`, `Krankenpfleger`) 2. Optionally add **Location Codes**: lowercase ISO2 country codes (`be`, `de`, `nl`) or NUTS region codes (`be2` for Flanders, `de21` for Upper Bavaria) 3. Optionally set a **Publication Period** (last 24 hours, last week, last month) 4. Set **Max Results** and run 5. Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Storage tab Turn on **Fetch Details** when you need city, postal code, apply URL, source feed, or application deadline. This costs one extra request per job, so a 100-job run stays quick but a 5,000-job run takes noticeably longer. ### Input example ```json { "searchQuery": "verpleegkundige", "locationCodes": ["be", "nl"], "publicationPeriod": "LAST_MONTH", "fetchDetails": true, "maxResults": 100, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ```` ### Output example ```json { "id": "NTg1NDQxMSAy", "title": "VERPLEEGKUNDIGE (V/M/X) M/V/X", "employer": "CARITAS INTERNATIONAL", "locations": [ { "country": "BE", "regionCodes": ["BE211"], "city": "Borgerhout", "postalCode": "2140" } ], "description": "WERKEN BIJ ONS, DAT IS...\neen job uitoefenen die zin heeft én voldoening geeft. Omdat je, samen met je collega's, een stukje bijdraagt aan een meer rechtvaardige, meer solidaire wereld...", "employmentType": "fulltime", "contractType": "directhire", "numberOfPosts": 1, "publicationDate": "2026-06-08T06:33:01.973Z", "lastModificationDate": "2026-06-30T09:30:26.997Z", "expirationDate": "2026-07-31T00:00:00.000Z", "euresFlag": false, "language": "fr", "city": "Borgerhout", "postalCode": "2140", "source": "Actiris", "applyUrl": "https://caritasint.portal.carerix.com/jobportal/vacature/37", "detailUrl": "https://europa.eu/eures/portal/jv-se/jv-details/NTg1NDQxMSAy?lang=en", "scrapedAt": "2026-07-11T18:53:55.907Z" } ``` Fields `city`, `postalCode`, `source`, `applyUrl`, and `expirationDate` are filled when **Fetch Details** is on. Without it you still get country and NUTS region codes for every job. ### Location codes | Code | Coverage | |------|----------| | `be` | Belgium | | `be2` | Flanders (NUTS1) | | `de` | Germany | | `de21` | Upper Bavaria (NUTS2) | | `fr` | France | | `nl` | Netherlands | | `es` | Spain | | `it` | Italy | | `pl` | Poland | | `se`, `dk`, `no`, `fi` | Nordics | Any lowercase ISO2 country code of an EU/EEA member works, and NUTS1/NUTS2 codes narrow down to regions. Leave the list empty to search all countries at once. ### Use cases - **Cross-border recruiting**: find candidates' target vacancies in several countries with one query - **Labour market research**: track vacancy volumes per country, region, or occupation over time - **Job board aggregation**: one feed instead of 30 national integrations - **Lead generation**: employers actively hiring in a region, with apply links via detail enrichment - **Salary and demand analysis**: full description text supports downstream extraction ### Practical notes - A single query returns at most 10,000 results (API limit). Split by country or publication period to go deeper. - Jobs come back in their original posting language. Search keywords match across all languages, so `nurse`, `verpleegkundige`, and `Krankenpfleger` return different (national) subsets. - Descriptions are capped at 3,000 characters of plain text. - The scraper deduplicates by vacancy ID, so items are unique within a run. - Datacenter proxies are sufficient. The default proxy setting works as-is. ### Related scrapers More European job scrapers from Studio AMBA: - [Arbeitsagentur Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/arbeitsagentur-scraper) — Germany's Federal Employment Agency job board - [HelloWork Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/hellowork-scraper) — France's biggest job site - [IrishJobs Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/irishjobs-scraper) — Ireland's leading job board - [Jobindex Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/jobindex-scraper) — Denmark's largest job database - [StepStone Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/stepstone-scraper) — Major European job platform ### FAQ **Do I need an account or API key?** No. The EURES search API is public. **Which countries are covered?** All EU member states plus EEA countries (Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein) and Switzerland, wherever the national employment service publishes to EURES. Around 3 million vacancies are live at any time. **How fresh is the data?** National feeds push updates continuously. Use the publication period filter to get only recent postings. **Can I filter by occupation or education level?** Not yet in this version. Keyword search plus location and publication period covers most needs. Open an issue on the actor page if you need more filters. **Is scraping EURES legal?** The actor only reads publicly available vacancy data published by government employment services for the explicit purpose of job matching. Always review how you use and share scraped data. # Actor input Schema ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Keyword(s) to search for, matched everywhere (title, description, employer). Any language works because jobs are indexed in their original posting language. Examples: 'software engineer', 'verpleegkundige', 'chauffeur', 'Krankenpfleger'. ## `locationCodes` (type: `array`): Filter by country or region. Lowercase ISO2 country codes ('be', 'de', 'fr', 'nl', 'es', 'it', 'pl'...) or NUTS1/NUTS2 region codes ('be2' = Flanders, 'de21' = Upper Bavaria). Leave empty to search all 30+ EURES countries. ## `publicationPeriod` (type: `string`): Only return vacancies published within this period. Leave empty for all. ## `fetchDetails` (type: `boolean`): Enrich each job with city, postal code, apply URL, source feed, and application deadline from the detail API. Costs one extra request per job: 100 jobs is quick, but 5,000 jobs means 5,000 extra requests and a noticeably longer run. Leave off for fast keyword searches. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of vacancies to return. The EURES API caps any single query at 10,000 results; narrow with locationCodes or publicationPeriod to go deeper. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings. The EURES API is public and open, so Apify datacenter proxies work well. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchQuery": "software engineer", "fetchDetails": false, "maxResults": 20, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (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 '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "searchQuery": "software engineer", "maxResults": 20, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("studio-amba/eures-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); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
