Workday Jobs API — Search 3,000+ Workday Career Sites

Every open job on 3,000+ companies' Workday career sites (*.myworkdayjobs.com), searchable by title, location and remote. No company list required, no login, no browser, no proxy.

• Search mode — {"keywords": ["data analyst"], "locations": ["Texas", "remote"]} searches a daily index of every live Workday career site we know, newest jobs first.
• Company mode — give company names (NVIDIA, Salesforce) or careers URLs (https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite) and get their live jobs with full descriptions.
• Only-new monitoring — schedule it and receive only postings that appeared since the last run.
• $2 per 1,000 jobs. Jobs removed by your filters are free.

Quick start

{ "keywords": ["software engineer"], "excludeKeywords": ["intern"], "locations": ["United States"], "postedWithinDays": 3, "maxItems": 200 }

{ "companies": ["NVIDIA", "Salesforce", "https://adobe.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/external_experienced"], "keywords": ["product"] }

Output

One row per job: vendor (always workday), company, title, url (direct apply link), location, postedAt, jobId, remote, employmentType, department, description (company mode), plus sourceUrl and fetchedAt.

Why Workday is hard and how this Actor handles it

A Workday careers address has three parts — numbered host (wd1…wd105), tenant and site id — none derivable from the company name. This Actor ships a directory of 3,000+ verified tenants and sites, so a name is enough. Each site is read through Workday's own public job-search API (the one the careers page calls), paginated 20 jobs at a time.

Daily job alerts → Google Sheets or Slack

Schedule the Actor (Apify Schedules, n8n, Make or Zapier) with onlyNewJobs: true and a fixed stateKey. The first run is your baseline; every later run returns only postings that appeared since — and you are not billed again for jobs you already received. No new jobs means zero rows and zero cost.

n8n: Schedule Trigger → HTTP Request → Google Sheets (Append rows) → Slack, with

• POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/suitable_sunspot~workday-jobs-api/run-sync-get-dataset-items?timeout=180&maxTotalChargeUsd=0.1
• Header Authorization: Bearer <your Apify token>
• Body: {"keywords": ["data analyst"], "locations": ["United States"], "onlyNewJobs": true, "stateKey": "workday-alert", "maxItems": 200}

maxTotalChargeUsd caps the cost of each run.

Python (pip install apify-client):

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<your Apify token>")
run = client.actor("suitable_sunspot~workday-jobs-api").call(
    run_input={"keywords": ["data analyst"], "locations": ["United States"], "onlyNewJobs": True, "stateKey": "workday-alert", "maxItems": 200},
    max_total_charge_usd=0.10,
)
for job in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(job["company"], "|", job["title"], "|", job["url"])

What it costs

$2.00 per 1,000 jobs, nothing else. A daily alert that finds 300 new postings a week costs $0.60 a week; a one-off search for 100 jobs costs $0.20. Jobs removed by your filters, errors, companies not found and jobs you already received in monitoring mode are never charged. Apify's free plan includes monthly credit, enough to try it at no cost.

Limits

• Search mode reads an index rebuilt daily and returns jobs without descriptions; use company mode for full text.
• Workday shows at most 2,000 jobs per career site in its public search.
• Companies missing from the directory can still be read by passing their careers URL.
