Indeed Jobs Scraper: Listings, Salary, Company Rating, Remote

Scrape Indeed.com job search results: title, company and its rating, location, remote or hybrid, salary range and period where the employer shows it, job types, posting date, urgent and easy apply flags, snippet and job URL. Filter by keyword, location, date posted and job type.

• Pay per result row: the platform usage of the run is included, and a run that finds nothing has no result charges.
• No login, no cookies, no account on Indeed: public pages only.
• Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or HTML, or read the rows through the Apify API.
• Start it from the Console, on a schedule, through the API, or as a tool for agents over MCP.
• Tested every day on its example input, with the rows checked, and repaired when a check fails.

What you can use it for

• Salary benchmarks: the salary ranges employers post for a job title in a city, with the pay period.
• Hiring signals for sales teams: which companies post a role in a region this week, with their Indeed rating.
• Job boards and alerts: a daily feed of new postings for a search, with remote and job type flags.
• Labour market research: count remote, hybrid and onsite postings and urgent hires for any search.

Every result is one row in the run's dataset. Download it as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML, or read it through the Apify API. The main fields:

How to use it

1. Open the Input tab (or call the actor through the API, see below).
2. Fill in Search query; the form opens with a working example.
3. Set Maximum results to cap the size and the cost of the run.
4. Click Start. Rows appear on the Output tab while the run works.
5. Download the dataset, or connect it to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, n8n or a webhook.

Input

Field	Type	Required	Description
query	string	yes	Job title, keywords, or company name. Example: 'software engineer'.
location	string	no	City, state, zip code, or 'remote'. Leave blank for all locations. Example: 'New York, NY' or 'Remote'. Default: "".
datePosted	select	no	Only return jobs posted within this many days. 'any' applies no filter. Allowed: any, 1, 3, 7, 14. Default: "any".
jobType	select	no	Filter by employment type. Leave blank for all types. Allowed: , fulltime, parttime, contract, temporary, internship. Default: "".
includeSponsored	boolean	no	Paid listings Indeed mixes into the results. Turn off to keep only the regular results. Default: true.
maxPages	integer	no	Number of result pages to read per search. Each page adds about 10 regular jobs, plus the sponsored ones. Maximum is 10, the pages Indeed's robots.txt opens. Default: 2.
maxItems	integer	no	The run stops after this many result rows. It also caps what one run can cost. Default: 100.
proxyConfiguration	object	no	Leave as is: the run starts on the cheapest network the site accepts and switches to Apify Proxy automatically when the site blocks it. Pick proxy groups here only to force one specific network.

Example input:

{
  "query": "data analyst",
  "location": "Remote",
  "datePosted": "any",
  "jobType": "",
  "maxPages": 1,
  "maxItems": 20
}

Pricing

You pay per result row in the dataset (the current price per 1,000 results is on the Pricing tab). A run that finds nothing produces no rows and no result charges. Set Maximum results to cap what a single run can cost.

Limits and notes

• Covers indeed.com (United States) job search pages. Each page holds about 15 results; set maxPages to control depth. Indeed's robots.txt opens the first 10 result pages of a search, so a search gives up to about 100 jobs: split a broad search by location or date to get more.
• Individual job detail pages (/viewjob) are closed to automated access in Indeed's robots.txt and are never fetched; jobUrl is provided as a reference link only.
• Salary, posting date, job types and the remote flag are filled when Indeed shows them on the search card. Sponsored marks paid listings; turn off Include sponsored jobs to keep only the others.
• Not affiliated with Indeed.
• Only publicly visible data is collected. No login, no paywalled content, no personal contact details.
• The actor reads only pages that the site's robots.txt leaves open to automated access.
• Sites change their pages from time to time. The actor is checked automatically and repaired when a check fails.
• Each run sends one short usage record to the developer: the Actor and run IDs, the number of results, whether the run succeeded (and if not, the kind of error, such as "blocked" or "input problem"), whether the account is on a paid Apify plan, how the run was started (for example from the Console, the API or a schedule) and a one-way fingerprint of the account (a hash, not the account ID), so that repeat runs of one account count once. It contains nothing from your input or results.

Run it through the API

Python, with the apify-client package:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("v0iddo/indeed-scraper").call(run_input={"query": "data analyst", "location": "Remote", "datePosted": "any", "jobType": "", "maxPages": 1, "maxItems": 20})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

JavaScript, with the apify-client package:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>' });
const run = await client.actor('v0iddo/indeed-scraper').call({"query": "data analyst", "location": "Remote", "datePosted": "any", "jobType": "", "maxPages": 1, "maxItems": 20});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

One HTTP call that waits for the run and returns the rows (for runs that finish within 5 minutes):

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/v0iddo~indeed-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "data analyst", "location": "Remote", "datePosted": "any", "jobType": "", "maxPages": 1, "maxItems": 20}'

Use it from an agent (MCP)

Claude, Cursor, VS Code and other MCP clients can call this actor as a tool through the Apify MCP server. Add it to the client's MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=v0iddo/indeed-scraper",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Then ask, for example: "List the remote data analyst jobs on Indeed posted in the last 3 days, with salary and company."

FAQ

Do I need an account on Indeed, cookies or an API key?

No. The actor reads only what every visitor of Indeed can see, without logging in. You only need an Apify account to start it.

How many results can one run return?

Up to 5,000 rows per run. Without a limit it stops at 100. Set Maximum results to the number you need; large jobs can also be split into several runs or scheduled.

How am I charged?

Per result row in the dataset, at the price on the Pricing tab for your Apify plan. The platform usage of the run is included in that price. A run that finds nothing produces no rows and no result charges, and your spending limit for a run is always respected.

Why did my run return no results?

The status message of the run says why: nothing matched the input, the input was not a page the actor understands, the page is closed to automated access by robots.txt, or the site refused every network the actor tried. Check the input against the example above and run it again with a small limit.

Can I run it on a schedule?

Yes. Save your input as a task and add a schedule in the Apify Console (daily, hourly or with a cron expression). Each run gets its own dataset, so you keep a history.

Which formats can I export?

JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, HTML table and RSS from the Output tab or the API. Integrations send the rows to Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier, n8n or a webhook.

Is collecting this data allowed?

The actor collects only what Indeed publishes to every visitor, without a login, and it reads only pages that robots.txt leaves open. Public data can still be personal data under laws such as the GDPR, and sites have their own terms: make sure your use of the data follows the rules that apply to you.

What happens when Indeed changes its pages?

Automated tests run the actor every day on the example input and check the rows, not only that the run finished. When a check fails, the actor is repaired and rebuilt; the build history on this page shows each update.

Something is missing or wrong. Where do I report it?

Open an issue on the Issues tab of this actor with the run link. Requests for a new field are welcome too.
