## What's an Apify Actor?

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

## Jobup.ch Scraper

Extract job listings from [jobup.ch](https://www.jobup.ch), the leading job board of French-speaking Switzerland (part of the JobCloud group), as clean structured JSON. Search by keyword and location, pick your language, and get job titles, companies, workplaces, workload percentages, publication dates and direct links in one run.

No login. No cookies. No browser automation. The actor talks to the same public JSON API the jobup.ch website uses, so it is fast and stable.

### What this actor does

Given a search keyword (and optionally a city or canton), this actor collects every matching job listing from jobup.ch and returns one row per job with:

- Job title
- Hiring company
- Workplace / city
- Workload range (employment grade, e.g. 80–100%)
- Short preview of the description
- Publication date
- Company logo URL
- The job's unique ID and direct URL

jobup.ch is the go-to board for the Romandie: Geneva, Vaud, Fribourg, Neuchâtel, Valais and Jura. You can search with French or English keywords, and choose which language version of the detail URL you want back.

### Why use it

- **Job market research** — track how many roles match a keyword across the Romandie or a single canton.
- **Recruitment and sourcing** — build a live feed of open positions for a role or company.
- **Workload benchmarking** — analyse employment grade percentages across employers.
- **Aggregators and job boards** — feed Swiss French-language listings into your own product.

### How to scrape Jobup data

1. Open the actor and set a **Search Query** (for example `comptable`, `infirmier`, `ingénieur` or `marketing`).
2. Optionally set a **Location** such as `Genève`, `Lausanne`, `Fribourg` or `Sion`. Leave it empty to search all of Switzerland.
3. Pick a **Language** (`fr` or `en`) for the returned detail URLs.
4. Set **Max Results** to how many listings you want.
5. Leave the proxy on the default residential setting and click **Start**.

The actor pages through the jobup.ch search API (20 results per page) until it reaches your Max Results or runs out of listings, then writes everything to the dataset. You can export the result as JSON, CSV or Excel.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `searchQuery` | string | Keyword to search for. French works best, English also works. Default: `comptable`. |
| `location` | string | City or canton filter (e.g. `Genève`, `Lausanne`). Empty = all Switzerland. |
| `language` | string | Language of the returned detail URLs: `fr` or `en`. Default: `fr`. |
| `maxResults` | integer | Maximum number of listings to return. Default: `50`. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Apify proxy settings. Default: residential. |

#### Example input

```json
{
    "searchQuery": "comptable",
    "location": "Genève",
    "language": "fr",
    "maxResults": 50,
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true,
        "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"]
    }
}
````

### Output

Each dataset item looks like this:

```json
{
    "jobTitle": "Comptable",
    "company": "HCM Partners",
    "location": "Genève",
    "employmentGradeMin": 90,
    "employmentGradeMax": 100,
    "preview": "Dans le cadre du développement de notre client, une PME basée à Genève, nous recherchons un/une comptable...",
    "publishedDate": "2026-07-07T02:02:37+02:00",
    "companyLogo": "https://media.jobup.ch/media/535b9059-bba0-4ac3-a6cd-e21af453eac4.jpg?dimensions=320x0",
    "jobId": "d5d3b6fc-aaa5-4627-98e8-ac3eb9c5316e",
    "url": "https://www.jobup.ch/fr/emplois/detail/d5d3b6fc-aaa5-4627-98e8-ac3eb9c5316e/",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-07-10T10:00:00.000Z"
}
```

#### Output fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `jobTitle` | string | Title of the job listing |
| `company` | string | Name of the hiring company |
| `location` | string | City or place of work |
| `employmentGradeMin` | number | Minimum workload percentage (e.g. 80) |
| `employmentGradeMax` | number | Maximum workload percentage (e.g. 100) |
| `preview` | string | Short teaser of the job description |
| `publishedDate` | string | ISO 8601 publication date |
| `companyLogo` | string | URL of the company logo |
| `jobId` | string | Unique jobup.ch job identifier |
| `url` | string | Full job listing URL |
| `scrapedAt` | string | ISO 8601 timestamp of collection |

### Cost estimate

This actor uses a lightweight JSON API and no browser, so runs are cheap and fast. One request returns 20 listings, so a few hundred jobs cost only a handful of requests plus proxy traffic. Exact cost depends on your Apify plan and proxy usage.

### Limitations

- **Salary** is not published in the jobup.ch search API, so it is not included. The actor returns the workload percentage (employment grade) instead, which is what jobup.ch exposes.
- The API returns at most 20 results per page; the actor pages through automatically.
- Full job descriptions are not fetched; the `preview` field holds the teaser text jobup.ch shows in search results.
- Very deep result sets (thousands of jobs for a broad keyword) take proportionally longer because of the 20-per-page limit.
- Listings are concentrated in French-speaking Switzerland. For German-speaking Switzerland, use the Jobs.ch Scraper (same platform, same data shape).

### Related scrapers

Building a European jobs dataset? These sibling actors follow the same clean-JSON approach:

- **Jobs.ch Scraper** — Switzerland's largest job board (German-speaking focus)
- **Pracuj Scraper** — Poland's #1 job board
- **Jobs.cz Scraper** — Czech job listings
- **eJobs Scraper** — Romania's largest job board
- **InfoJobs Scraper** — Spanish job listings

### Disclaimer

This actor collects publicly available data from jobup.ch for legitimate research and aggregation use. Respect jobup.ch's terms of service and applicable data protection law when using the output.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQuery` (type: `string`):

Keyword to search for (e.g. 'comptable', 'infirmier', 'ingénieur', 'marketing'). French keywords work best on jobup.ch, but English also works.

## `location` (type: `string`):

Filter by city or canton (e.g. 'Genève', 'Lausanne', 'Fribourg', 'Neuchâtel', 'Sion'). Leave empty to search all of Switzerland.

## `language` (type: `string`):

Language of the job detail URLs returned. jobup.ch offers French and English versions of each listing.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of job listings to return.

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

Proxy settings. jobup.ch's public API is not geo-locked; residential proxies are the most reliable default. Add country CH if you need Swiss IPs.

```json
{
  "searchQuery": "comptable",
  "language": "fr",
