They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Indeed CH Scraper ![Indeed CH Scraper](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/MZycmv9AeAXYnOg6G/records/banner.png) Extract job listings from ch.indeed.com at scale, with the richest field set available: full descriptions, structured salary, company profiles, precise geo-coordinates and hiring signals. No API key required. --- ### Why this scraper? #### 🎯 Built for Switzerland A dedicated Swiss scraper, not a global tool with a country dropdown. Salary parsing, location handling and currency (CHF) are tuned for ch.indeed.com. #### 📄 Complete job data Full job title, description in both HTML and plain text, apply URL, publish date, and the date the job first appeared on Indeed. #### 💶 Structured salary Minimum, maximum, pay period and currency, parsed from the listing. Estimated figures are flagged so you can filter them out. #### 🏢 Company profiles Company name, industry, employee count, revenue band, corporate website and logo where Indeed publishes them. #### 📍 Precise location Full address, city, postal code, region code, country and latitude/longitude, plus a remote-work flag. #### 🔁 Repost detection Every record carries hiring-demand signals so you can spot urgent and high-volume postings at a glance. --- ### Input parameters | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `query` | string | `"entwickler"` | Job title or keyword to search for. | | `location` | string | (empty) | City, region or postal code. Leave empty to search all of Switzerland. | | `radius` | integer | `25` | Search radius around the location, in kilometres. | | `sort` | string | `"relevance"` | Sort by `relevance` or `date` (newest first). | | `fromDays` | string | (empty) | Limit to jobs posted within the last 1, 3, 7 or 14 days. Empty means any time. | | `maxItems` | integer | `100` | Maximum number of listings to return. Set to `0` for unlimited. | --- ### Output schema Every field below is present on every record.

Failed retries are never charged. | Results | Cost | |---|---| | 100 | ~$0.08 | | 1,000 | ~$0.76 | | 10,000 | ~$7.60 | | 100,000 | ~$76.00 | > Flat-rate alternatives typically charge $29–$49/month regardless of usage. Subscription tiers lower the rate further, from $0.73 per 1,000 down to $0.64 per 1,000 at the highest tier. Use the **Max results** cap in the input to control your spend exactly. *** ### Performance | Run size | Typical time | |---|---| | 100 results | under 1 minute | | 1,000 results | 2–4 minutes | | 10,000 results | 20–35 minutes | *** ### Known limitations - Salary is only returned when the employer or Indeed publishes it. Many listings have no salary. - Company profile depth varies by employer. Large companies return full profiles; smaller employers return only what Indeed holds. - Indeed caps how deep any search can page. Very broad queries return a large but finite slice, not every matching job ever posted. *** ### Technical details - **Source:** ch.indeed.com — Switzerland job listings - **Coverage:** nationwide, filterable by location and radius - **Retry:** automatic retry on network errors with exponential backoff *** ### Need a custom scraper? **[Unfenced Group](https://www.unfencedgroup.nl)** builds Apify actors for any website — for free.
