• Three description formats — HTML, plain text and Markdown for flexible downstream processing
• Application deadline tracking — deadline field lets you filter and alert on closing dates
• Easy Apply detection — easyApply flag identifies listings with FINN's native one-click application
• Cross-run repost detection — 90-day fingerprint identifies listings republished under a new ID

Performance

Scenario	Speed	Notes
List-only (fetchDetails: false)	~300 listings/min	Fast — no detail page requests
With details (fetchDetails: true)	~40–60 listings/min	Includes detail page per listing
Large run (5,000+ listings)	~40 listings/min	Stable with retry logic

Memory usage: 256 MB (no browser).

Pricing

$1.50 per 1,000 results — pay only for what you extract.

Volume	Cost
1,000 results	$1.50
10,000 results	$15.00
50,000 results	$75.00

Compare this to flat-rate scraping tools that charge $50–200/month regardless of usage. At typical usage volumes, this actor is 3–10× cheaper.

---

Known limitations

• Salary data — approximately 60–70% of listings do not publish salary information; salaryMin will be null in those cases
• Apply URL — native FINN.no applications (where the candidate applies directly within FINN) return null for applyUrl; the job url should be used instead
• Promoted listings — "Betalt plassering" (paid placement) ads appear in results and are included in the output
• Search scope — the scraper targets the FINN.no fulltime jobs vertical (/job/fulltime/search.html). This covers the majority of Norwegian job listings
