• Input: company names or Workday career-site URLs, search text, locations, posted within days, include description, max items per company, only-new mode.
• Output: job title, company, location(s), remote/hybrid, posted date, job ID, URL, time type, salary range when published, optional full description.
• Price: $0.001 per job listed, $0.002 per job with full description, $0.00005 per run start. Pay per result, no subscription; Apify's free plan credit covers a first test.

Scrape job postings from any public Workday career site, or pick from a built-in, live-verified directory of 167 large employers (NVIDIA, Salesforce, Boeing, Pfizer, Target, Home Depot, Bank of America, Cisco, Intel and more). Search by keyword, filter by location and posted date, pull full descriptions and stated salary ranges, and run on a schedule to get only new jobs. $1 per 1,000 jobs.

What does Workday Jobs Scraper do?

Thousands of large employers host their careers page on Workday (*.myworkdayjobs.com). Each of those sites exposes the same public job-search data that your browser loads when you visit it. This Actor reads that public data directly and returns clean, structured rows:

• Any Workday career site: paste a URL such as https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite (or any job link from it). The tenant, data center (wd1, wd5, wd12...) and site name are parsed for you. myworkdaysite.com URLs work too.
• Or just type company names: 167 big employers are bundled with their verified Workday URLs, so ["Pfizer", "Target"] is enough. Use ALL to sweep the whole directory.
• Keyword search through Workday's own search engine (searchText).
• Location filter (Texas, London, Remote...), checked against every location of multi-location jobs.
• Posted within N days, turning Workday's "Posted 3 Days Ago" into a real ISO date.
• Full job details on demand: description text (and HTML), exact posting date, all locations, country, time type, remote/hybrid/on-site, hiring legal entity, and salary range when the posting states one (parsed into min, max, currency, period).
• Only-new mode (delta): remembers which jobs you already received and returns just the new ones. Seen jobs are never charged.

Why use it?

• One Actor for every Workday employer: no per-company scraper, no browser, no login.
• Cheapest per job: $0.001 per listed job, $0.002 with full description. No monthly rental.
• Fast: the default input (2 companies, 20 jobs each) finishes in about 5 seconds.
• Built for monitoring: schedule it daily with onlyNewJobs and you get a clean feed of new postings for alerts, job boards, recruiting or labor-market research.
• Polite and reliable: one request at a time per career site with pauses, automatic retries on HTTP 429 and 5xx with back-off.
• Clean dates: every row has postedOn as YYYY-MM-DD, exact when details are fetched and clearly flagged (postedOnIsEstimate) when derived from "Posted N Days Ago".

}

Field	What it does

Sample output

Real rows from a platform run of the default input (NVIDIA + Salesforce, engineer):

Company	Title	Location	Posted	Req ID
Salesforce	Corporate Development M&A Senior Analyst	California - San Francisco	2026-10-08	JR363033
Salesforce	Summer 2027 Intern - Tableau Research	2 Locations	2026-10-08	JR363252
Salesforce	Account Executive - Data Foundations, Public Sector	Australia - South Australia - Remote	2026-10-08	JR354774
Salesforce	Software Engineer AMTS (Junior) - Keynote Demo	Mexico - Mexico City	2026-10-08	JR362623
NVIDIA	STA Engineer	2 Locations	2026-09-23	JR2016441

One full item with includeDescription: true (description shortened):

{
  "company": "Lowe's",
  "title": "HR Business Partner",
  "location": "Mooresville, NC (SSC) 1999",
  "locations": ["Mooresville, NC (SSC) 1999"],
  "country": "United States of America",
  "remoteType": "In-Office",
  "timeType": "Full time",
  "postedOn": "2026-10-07",
  "postedOnIsEstimate": false,
  "postedOnText": "Posted Today",
  "postedDaysAgo": 0,
  "jobReqId": "JR-02650199",
  "url": "https://lowes.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/LWS_External_CS/job/Mooresville-NC-SSC-1999/HR-Business-Partner_JR-02650199",
  "salaryText": null,
  "salaryMin": null,
  "salaryMax": null,
  "salaryCurrency": null,
  "salaryPeriod": null,
  "description": "Do your Best Work in Mooresville\n\nThis position is based at our headquarters in Mooresville, North Carolina...",
  "hiringEntity": "Lowe's Companies, Inc.",
  "careerSiteUrl": "https://lowes.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/LWS_External_CS",
  "workdayTenant": "lowes",
  "workdaySite": "LWS_External_CS",
  "jobId": "lowes:LWS_External_CS:/job/Mooresville-NC-SSC-1999/HR-Business-Partner_JR-02650199",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-10-08T02:03:47.800Z",
  "isNew": null
}

When a posting states pay (for example a Target analyst role: "$98,000.00 - $176,000.00"), you get salaryMin: 98000, salaryMax: 176000, salaryCurrency: "USD", salaryPeriod: "year".

Pricing

Pay per event, no subscription:

Event	Price
Actor start	$0.00005 per run
Job listed (descriptions off)	$0.001 per job ($1 per 1,000)
Job with description (descriptions on)	$0.002 per job ($2 per 1,000), replaces Job listed

Worked example: a daily alert over 20 companies, 50 new jobs per day with descriptions = 50 x $0.002 = $0.10 per day, about $3 per month. Listing 5,000 jobs without descriptions costs $5. Filtered-out jobs, already-seen jobs (only-new mode) and failed rows are never charged. Set a maximum charge per run in Console to cap spend; the Actor stops cleanly when it is reached.

Use from AI agents (MCP, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity)

Workday Jobs Scraper works as a tool for AI assistants through the official Apify MCP server. Add this server URL to any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT connectors, VS Code):

https://mcp.apify.com/?actors=transparent_meteorite/workday-jobs-scraper

Claude Desktop / Cursor config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?actors=transparent_meteorite/workday-jobs-scraper",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" }
    }
  }
}

Then ask in plain language, for example: "How do I scrape jobs from a myworkdayjobs.com site?"

Call it directly over HTTP (runs the actor and returns the dataset items in one request):

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/transparent_meteorite~workday-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"companies": ["NVIDIA", "Salesforce"], "searchText": "engineer", "maxItemsPerCompany": 20}'

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("transparent_meteorite/workday-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={"companies": ["NVIDIA", "Salesforce"], "searchText": "engineer", "maxItemsPerCompany": 20})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

The same actor works in n8n, Make, Zapier, LangChain, LlamaIndex and CrewAI through their Apify integrations.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Workday career sites? The Actor reads only public job postings that each employer publishes for anyone to see, through the same public endpoints the careers page uses. No login, no captcha bypass, no personal data. You are responsible for how you use the data; check your local rules and the site terms for your use case.

My company is not in the directory. Can I still scrape it? Yes. Open its careers page, copy the myworkdayjobs.com URL and put it in careerSiteUrls. Any Workday career site works.

How do I find a company's Workday URL? Click "Careers" / "Search jobs" on the company website; if the address contains myworkdayjobs.com, that is it. Unknown company names are listed in the run log.

Why is a run limited to 2,000 jobs per site? Workday itself does not page beyond 2,000 results per search. Use keywords, locations or several searches to cover very large employers.

How accurate is postedOn? With descriptions on, it is the exact posting start date from Workday. Without, it is computed from "Posted N Days Ago" (flagged with postedOnIsEstimate: true); "30+ Days Ago" is a lower bound (postedDaysAgo: 30).

Do I always get a salary? Only when the employer states a pay range in the posting (common for US roles in states with pay transparency laws). It needs includeDescription: true.

How does only-new mode work? Job IDs you received are stored in a named key-value store (deltaStoreName). The next run skips them and does not charge for them. Use a different store name per watch list.

Does it use proxies? No. Requests are light, sequential per site, with pauses and back-off on rate limits.

Limits

• Public Workday career sites only; internal or login-only sites are not reachable.
• Max 2,000 jobs per site per search (Workday's own cap); max 2,000 saved per company per run.
• Location filtering is text-based on Workday's location labels.
• Salary is parsed only from text the employer wrote; formats vary.
• The bundled directory was verified live on 2026-10-07; employers occasionally move career sites. If one fails, the run log says so and the other sites continue.

Changelog

• 2026-10-07: added plain-language summary, key facts, AI-agent (MCP) section and question-style FAQ; refreshed Store SEO metadata.
• 0.1 (2026-10-07): first release. Any career site URL, 167-company verified directory, keyword/location/date filters, descriptions, salary parsing, remote type, only-new delta mode, PPE $1/1k.
