## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. 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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Indeed Jobs Scraper — Titles, Companies, Salaries & Apply Links

Scrape job listings from Indeed by keyword and location and get them back as clean, structured JSON. Feed it plain search terms or full Indeed URLs, pick any Indeed country, and pull job title, company, location, salary, job type, remote flag, company rating, a snippet and a direct apply link. It runs reliably, so you get real results at scale. No account, no API key. Built for recruiters, sourcers, job-board builders and labor-market analysts.

### Features

- 🔎 **Keyword + location search** — pass `searches` as `"software engineer|New York"` lines, or drop in full Indeed jobs URLs; mix as many as you like.
- 🌍 **Any Indeed country** — set `country` to us, uk, ca, de, fr, au, in, nl or ie to hit the right domain.
- 💰 **Salary when shown** — captures posted or estimated salary text straight from the listing.
- 🏠 **Remote detection** — every record carries a boolean `remote` flag so you can filter work-from-home roles instantly.
- ⭐ **Company ratings** — pulls the employer's star `rating` where Indeed displays one.
- 🛡️ **bot protection bypass** — residential proxy by default keeps runs clearing the challenge reliably.
- 📄 **Depth controls** — cap results with `maxItemsPerSearch` and `maxPagesPerSearch` to balance cost and coverage.

### What you get

Each job is one dataset record like this:

  "location": "New York, NY",
  "salary": "$150,000 - $180,000 a year",
  "remote": false,
  "jobType": "Full-time",
  "snippet": "We are looking for a senior engineer to join our platform team...",
  "rating": 4.1,
  "postedAt": "3 days ago",
  "url": "https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=a1b2c3d4e5f6"
}
```

### Pricing

Pay-per-event: you're billed a small amount per run and per item scraped — you only pay for what you get. See the **Pricing** tab for current rates.

### Notes

This scraper reads only public Indeed search-result pages and returns the same data any visitor can see. It is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to Indeed; "Indeed" is a trademark of its respective owner. Public data only.
