## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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.

### 💰 Pricing

**$0.99 per 1,000 results** — you only pay for successfully retrieved listings.
Failed retries and filtered reposts are never charged.

| Results | Cost |
|---------|------|
| 100 | ~$0.10 |
| 1,000 | ~$0.99 |
| 10,000 | ~$9.90 |
| 100,000 | ~$99.00 |

> Flat-rate alternatives typically charge $29–$49/month regardless of usage.

Use the **Max results** cap in the input to control your spend exactly.

***

### ⚠️ Known limitations

- **`applyUrl` not available** — JobStreet does not expose direct application URLs; the listing URL is the entry point.
- **Salary is often null** — many listings in PH and ID do not display salary information; `salaryMin` / `salaryMax` will be null for those.
- **`bulletPoints` sparse** — only sponsored/premium listings include highlight bullet points.
- **`workArrangement`** — not available when using `startUrls` mode (list-page only field).
- **HK / TH not supported** — those markets use a different platform architecture and are not covered by this actor.
- **Max 10,000 results per search** — the platform caps paginated results at 100 pages × 100 items. Use multiple targeted keyword+location runs for larger extractions.

***

### Technical details

- **Source:** jobstreet.com — Southeast Asia's leading job platform
- **Memory:** 256 MB
- **Repost storage:** KeyValueStore `jobstreet-{country}-job-dedup`, 90-day TTL per market
