Indeed Job Search Scraper with Salary & Benefits Data

Turn any Indeed job search into a structured, analysis-ready dataset. Give it keywords, a location and optional filters — or paste search, company or single-job URLs — and receive each posting with its full description, salary range and pay period, benefits, remote-work model, employer details and the link candidates actually apply through. No Indeed account, cookie or API key required.

What this actor does

• Search 62 country sites by keyword and location, with filters for date posted, job type, workplace, experience, education, Easy Apply and minimum salary
• Paste Indeed URLs — filtered search links, company job pages (/cmp/<company>/jobs) and individual job links are all understood, and filters in a URL are honored
• Full descriptions, not teasers — every listing carries the complete posting text, with optional HTML
• Structured compensation — minimum, maximum, period, currency, annualized figures, and whether the range is the employer's own
• Employer and application data — company size, revenue, industry, CEO and website when Indeed holds them, plus the external application link for off-site applications
• Beyond Indeed's search ceiling — Indeed stops each query at roughly 600–900 unique jobs; the actor automatically splits the search into date windows and merges them, returning the full set Indeed's index holds for your query
• Optional employer depth — add sub-ratings, Work-Wellbeing, CEO details, salary-by-title reports and full review pages for each hiring company
• Clean records — duplicates across searches are removed by job key, and fields Indeed has no value for are left out of the record instead of being padded with blanks

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
searchQueries	array	–	Job searches. Put a location after " in ": data analyst in Austin, TX. A query without " in " uses location, or searches the whole country
startUrls	array	–	Indeed URLs: filtered searches, https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Google/jobs, or job links with jk=
country	string	US	Indeed country site to search (62 available). Salaries come back in that country's currency and job links point to the matching site; URL tasks from other country sites work too
location	string	–	City, region or postal code for searches that don't name one. Ignored for remote-only searches
radius	integer	25	Search distance from the location (0–500)
radiusUnit	string	miles	miles or kilometers
sort	string	relevance	relevance or date (newest first)
datePosted	string	–	Only jobs posted within 1, 3, 7, 14 or 30 days
jobType	string	–	Full-time, part-time, contract, temporary, internship, permanent, seasonal, per diem, freelance, apprenticeship or volunteer
workplaceType	string	–	remote, hybrid or inPerson
experienceLevel	string	–	noExperience, entry, mid or senior
educationLevel	string	–	noDegree, highSchool, associate, bachelor, master or doctoral
easyApplyOnly	boolean	false	Only jobs accepting Indeed's one-click application
salaryMin	integer	–	Only jobs paying at least this much per year, comparing annualized pay. Jobs with no stated salary are kept
maxItems	integer	50	Overall cap across all searches (1–10000)
maxItemsPerSearch	integer	–	Cap per search query or URL; defaults to maxItems
includeDescriptionHtml	boolean	false	Also save each description as HTML
includeCompanyRatings	boolean	false	Look up employer ratings plus sub-ratings, wellbeing, CEO details, salary-by-title reports and review snippets for each unique hiring company
includeContacts	boolean	false	Extract emails and phone numbers written in the posting description
includeCompanyReviews	boolean	false	Also fetch the first page of each employer's reviews: up to 20 full reviews (one extra request per company)
includeCompanySalaries	boolean	false	Also fetch each employer's salaries page: total report count, satisfaction and the broader title list (one extra request per company)
expandBeyondCeiling	boolean	true	Bypass Indeed's ~600–900-result search ceiling by splitting the search's date range into windows and merging the slices; narrow searches are unaffected

At least one search query or URL is needed — or a filter plus a country.

FAQ

Do I need an Indeed account or API key?

No. The actor reads Indeed's publicly available job data without any login, cookie or key.

How many jobs can one search return?

Indeed's own ranking ends one query after roughly 600–900 unique jobs. With expandBeyondCeiling on (the default), the actor splits the search into date windows and merges them: a live test returned 2,599 unique jobs for a query whose single pass stopped at 861. It stops at the size of Indeed's app index for your query — which can be smaller than Indeed's web page count — and older than two years is not covered. Narrow searches (fewer than ~750 results) are handled in a single pass. A job found by more than one search or window is saved once — every posting has one jobKey.

Why is the applicant count missing?

Indeed does not expose applicant numbers through its public job data; the only counter is an internal tracking value on its web search page without the displayed meaning. The actor therefore does not ship an applicant field. Posting age (datePosted, postedTime) is included.

Why do email/phone fields only appear sometimes?

They are extracted from text employers wrote in the posting, because Indeed's job data does not carry recruiter contacts. About one posting in nine includes an email. Enable includeContacts to add them.

Why do Indeed links return 403 to my link checker?

Indeed protects its own pages with Cloudflare bot management. jobUrl and companyUrl open normally in a browser, but a clean command-line request or a datacenter connection receives 403 — sometimes a login redirect — and that is expected, not a broken URL. From an ordinary residential browser session Indeed's /job/ pages and its apply redirects do open. applyUrl points directly at the employer's own application page whenever they apply off-site; those links are served raw and are machine-reachable, though a small share are dead because the employer removed the posting.

Why is the salary missing on some jobs?

Many employers simply do not publish pay. Those listings have no salary fields rather than a guessed number. Indeed's own estimated pay is rendered only on its login-gated pages, so the actor ships the employer's stated salary and never substitutes an estimate; salarySource is EMPLOYER whenever a range exists.

Why do some company fields look empty?

Indeed only holds company profiles for employers that maintain one. Fields like revenue, CEO or founded year are omitted when Indeed has no value, instead of being sent as blanks.

What is the difference between indeedApply and applyUrl?

indeedApply: true means the posting accepts Indeed's one-click application. applyUrl is the employer's own application page — an ATS or career site — which is what you follow for off-site applications.

Will the actor get blocked?

The actor reads Indeed data through the same interface Indeed's own mobile app uses, and picks a working connection automatically. If a search cannot be loaded at all, the run says so in its status message rather than returning empty records silently.

Is this affiliated with Indeed?

No. This is an independent, third-party actor that reads Indeed's public job data; it is not operated by or affiliated with Indeed.
