Indeed Jobs Scraper API - Listings & Salaries, $0.50/1K

Indeed Jobs Scraper - Job Listings & Salaries

Scrape job listings from Indeed search results on 6 country sites (US, UK, FR, DE, CA, AU). Returns title, company, location, salary, description snippet and job URL in flat JSON.

The Actor uses browser-like requests and Apify Proxy (residential, exit country matched to the Indeed site); if Indeed blocks a request it retries with a new proxy session.

Input

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
query	string	Yes	—	Job search keywords (e.g., "software engineer")
location	string	No	—	Location filter (e.g., "New York, NY")
maxItems	integer	No	50	Maximum job listings to scrape (1–5,000)
country	string	No	"US"	Indeed country site: US, UK, FR, DE, CA, AU. Must match the location: the location is searched on that site only (e.g. location: "London" with the default US returns London, OH; use country: "UK" for London, UK).

Output

{
    "title": "Senior Software Engineer",
    "company": "Example Corp",
    "location": "New York, NY",
    "salary": "$150,000 - $200,000 a year",
    "description": "Design and build scalable backend services...",
    "url": "https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=abc123def456",
    "date": "3 days ago",
    "jobType": "Full-time",
    "jobKey": "abc123def456",
    "query": "software engineer",
    "scrapedAt": "2025-01-15T10:30:00.000000+00:00"
}

description is the short snippet shown on the search results page, not the full job description. date is relative ("Today", "3 days ago"), as shown by Indeed.

Limitations

• Indeed shows anonymous visitors only the first results page of each search (deeper pages redirect to a login wall). To collect more, the Actor combines several filtered searches (different sort, recency and radius filters) and de-duplicates by job key.
• Because of this, a large maxItems may not be reached. Expect roughly 15-60 unique listings per search outside the US and more on indeed.com; the run status says when fewer than maxItems were found.
• country must match the location: the location is only searched on that Indeed site (e.g. location: "London" needs country: "UK").
• A run that finds no jobs, or whose requests are all blocked, ends as FAILED with an explanation.
