How much does it cost to scrape ITJobs.pt?

The ITJobs.pt Scraper reads server-rendered listing pages and native detail pages over plain HTTP — no browser — so runs are fast and cheap. Typical costs:

• 50 listings (with full details): ~$0.02-0.05 in platform credits
• 100 listings (with full details): ~$0.05-0.10 in platform credits
• 1,000 listings (with full details): ~$0.30-0.80 in platform credits

Costs depend on the number of pages loaded. Disabling includeDetails is even faster and cheaper when you only need basic listing data (title, company, location, work mode).

Tips and advanced options

• Use a technology tag to narrow results. Supported tags include: .net, abap, ai, android, angular, aws, azure, backend, c#, c++, cloud, devops, frontend, helpdesk, java, js, linux, microsoft, mobile, node, oracle, outsystems, php, project, python, qa, react, salesforce, sap, sql, sre, web.
• Leave searchQuery empty or unrecognized to scrape the full unfiltered IT job feed across all technologies.
• Keep includeDetails on for full job descriptions, exact addresses, and confirmed employment type. Turn it off when you only need listing basics and want the fastest possible run.
• Set maxResults to control costs. Start small (10-50) to verify the output, then scale up.
• Schedule runs to track new listings daily or weekly using Apify's built-in scheduler.
• Combine with other scrapers to build a comprehensive European IT job market dataset alongside our Prace.cz, Jobs.cz, and other EU job board scrapers.
