Why this scraper?

🎯 Built for Canada

A dedicated Canadian scraper, not a global tool with a country dropdown. Search, locations and currency (CAD) are tuned for eluta.ca.

📄 Complete job data

Full job title and description, direct listing URL and publish date for every record.

💶 Salary data

Salary information parsed from the listing where the employer publishes it, in CAD. Missing salaries are returned as null, never guessed.

🏢 Company details

Hiring company name plus the profile details the source publishes, such as logo and company page.

📍 Location fields

Structured location data for every listing, ready for filtering and analysis.

🔁 Repost & change detection

Every record carries isRepost and changeStatus, so daily feeds return genuinely new jobs instead of reposted duplicates.

Examples

Search for accountant roles in Toronto:

{
  "searchQuery": "accountant",
  "location": "Toronto",
  "maxItems": 100
}

Only jobs from the last 3 days:

{
  "searchQuery": "accountant",
  "location": "Toronto",
  "maxItems": 100,
  "daysOld": 3
}

Scrape a specific search URL:

{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.eluta.ca/"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 200
}

Daily feed (run on a schedule):

{
  "searchQuery": "accountant",
  "daysOld": 1,
  "skipReposts": true,
  "maxItems": 500
}

Schedule this input to run once a day in the Apify Scheduler — each run returns only jobs posted in the last 24 hours.

Known limitations

• Salary is only returned when the employer publishes it — many listings carry null salary fields.
• Company details vary per listing; the scraper returns what the source publishes and never invents data.
• Very large result sets are bounded by the source's own paging limits.
• Listings can be removed by the source at any time, so a small share of URLs may expire shortly after scraping.

Technical details

• Source: eluta.ca — Canada job listings
• Coverage: everything the public search exposes, filterable via the input parameters above
• Retry: automatic retry on network errors with exponential backoff
