A record named SUMMARY in the run's key-value store says what each input returned, with any notes (for example an account that does not exist), what was charged and how much traffic the run used.

Pricing

• $1 per 1,000 jobs on Free and Bronze, $0.90 on Silver, $0.80 on Gold, less above, with the full description included.
• $0.01 a run to start.
• Searches with no jobs are free. The Free plan returns 20 jobs a run.

What typical jobs cost at the list price:

Job	Cost
100 jobs	$0.11
1,000 jobs across several searches	$1.01
A daily run of 200 new jobs	$0.21 a day

On Apify's Scale and Business plans the per-event prices are lower (Store discounts). Set Maximum cost per run and the Actor stops cleanly when it is reached: you never pay more than that.

Tips

• Indeed ends a search at about 690 jobs: split a big search by place or by more exact words.
• Use listed in the last days with a schedule, so each run pays only for what is new.
• Many jobs show no pay. salaryIsEstimate tells you when the figure is Indeed's estimate rather than the employer's.
• Duplicates across your searches in one run are removed and not charged.

Use it through the API

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("zaiq/indeed-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={"keywords": ["software engineer"], "locations": ["Austin, TX"], "maxJobsPerSearch": 10})
for row in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(row)

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>' });
const run = await client.actor('zaiq/indeed-jobs-scraper').call({"keywords": ["software engineer"], "locations": ["Austin, TX"], "maxJobsPerSearch": 10});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

HTTP (one call, results back)

curl -X POST 'https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/zaiq~indeed-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"keywords": ["software engineer"], "locations": ["Austin, TX"], "maxJobsPerSearch": 10}'

Integrations and schedules

• Schedules: run it every hour, day or week from the Apify Console (Schedules) and keep a history of results.
• Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, Slack, Airtable: connect it through Apify's integrations, or send each finished run to a webhook.
• Datasets: results stay in the run's dataset; export them or read them by API whenever you need them.

Use it with AI agents (MCP)

Add Apify's MCP server with this Actor already pinned (https://mcp.apify.com?tools=zaiq/indeed-jobs-scraper) to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client. The agent can find this Actor and run it for you: ask it for Find registered nurse jobs posted in Boston this week and tell me which employers pay the most. AI agents can also pay for runs directly through Apify's agentic payments.

Limits

• About 690 jobs a search: measured on one US search with far more. Split big searches.
• Employer details appear only where Indeed holds a company profile and are shown as Indeed holds them, so they are empty on some jobs and can be out of date.
• Names of people, such as a company's CEO, are left out on purpose.
• Search words match broadly, as they do on the site, so read title.

FAQ

Do I need an Indeed account?

No. There is nothing to sign in to and no cookies to supply.

Which countries are covered?

62, from the United States, the UK and Germany to India, Brazil and South Africa. Each run searches one country.

Can I get only new jobs?

Yes. Set listed in the last days and schedule the run.

Is the full description extra?

No. It is included in the price.

Why fewer than I asked for?

Indeed ends a search at about 690 jobs, and fewer when fewer match. The run tells you when that happened.

Can I combine a date with job type or remote?

Yes. Rows that don't match are dropped and not charged, so a narrow search may scan more jobs to find them.
