## 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.

## Remote Jobs Aggregator — 5 Job Boards in One, De-duplicated, Clean JSON

Aggregate remote jobs from five popular boards — Remotive, Arbeitnow, Jobicy, Himalayas and Working Nomads — into a single clean, de-duplicated dataset. Each listing is normalized to the same shape: title, company, category, job type, seniority, location, salary, tags, posted date, apply link and description. It pulls each board's public JSON API over fast, plain HTTP. No account, no API key. Ideal for anyone building a remote-work job board, a talent feed or a hiring-trends dataset without wiring up five different integrations.

### Features

- 🌐 **Five boards, one schema** — Remotive, Arbeitnow, Jobicy, Himalayas and Working Nomads normalized into identical fields.
- 🎚️ **Pick your sources** — the `sources` array lets you pull from all five or just the boards you care about.
- 🔁 **Cross-board de-duplication** — the same job posted to multiple boards is collapsed by apply URL, so no repeats.
- 🔍 **Keyword filter** — `search` does a case-insensitive match across title, description, tags and category.
- 🏷️ **Rich fields** — captures `seniority`, `jobType`, `salary` (where the board provides it), `companyLogo` and cleaned-up `description`.
- ⚡ **Fast, browser-free HTTP** — public JSON APIs only and lightweight.
- 🎯 **Per-board caps** — `maxItemsPerSource` keeps runs balanced across boards.

### What you get

Every job is normalized into one clean JSON record:

```json
{
  "source": "remotive",
  "title": "Senior Python Engineer",
  "company": "Acme Remote Inc.",
  "companyLogo": "https://remotive.com/logo/acme.png",
  "category": "Software Development",
  "jobType": "full_time",
  "seniority": null,
  "location": "Worldwide",
  "salary": "$120k - $150k",
  "tags": ["python", "django", "aws"],
  "url": "https://remotive.com/remote-jobs/software-dev/senior-python-engineer",
  "postedAt": "2026-07-20T09:00:00.000Z",
  "description": "We are looking for a senior Python engineer to join our fully remote team..."
}
```

### Input

```json
{
  "sources": ["remotive", "arbeitnow", "jobicy", "himalayas", "workingnomads"],
  "search": "python",
  "maxItemsPerSource": 100,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false }
}
```

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `sources` | Which boards to pull from: `remotive`, `arbeitnow`, `jobicy`, `himalayas`, `workingnomads`. |
| `search` | Case-insensitive keyword filter on title, description, tags and category. Leave empty for all jobs. |
| `maxItemsPerSource` | Cap jobs per board (0 = all available). |
| `proxyConfiguration` | Optional. These public APIs work without a proxy. |

### Use cases

- Populate a remote-jobs board with fresh listings from five sources at once.
- Build a filtered feed (e.g. only "designer" or "marketing" roles) across boards.
- Track remote hiring trends by category, seniority and job type.
- Feed a talent-sourcing or newsletter pipeline with de-duplicated openings.

### 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.

### FAQ

**Do I need any accounts or API keys?**
No. The Actor pulls each board's public JSON API — Remotive, Arbeitnow, Jobicy, Himalayas and Working Nomads — over plain HTTP, with no login and no API keys.

**How many jobs can I get per run?**
Use `maxItemsPerSource` to cap jobs per board (0 = all available), so results stay balanced across the five sources. The same job posted to multiple boards is collapsed by apply URL, so there are no repeats.

**Is aggregating these job boards legal?**
Only public data served by each board's own API is read, and every record keeps its `source` and original apply `url`. This is an independent tool, not affiliated with any of the boards; review each board's terms for your use case.

**What's the output format?**
One clean, normalized JSON record per job — identical fields across all five boards: `source`, `title`, `company`, `category`, `jobType`, `seniority`, `location`, `salary`, `tags`, `url`, `postedAt` and `description`. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel.

**Can I filter by keyword or source?**
Yes. The `search` field does a case-insensitive match across title, description, tags and category, and the `sources` array lets you pull from all five boards or just the ones you care about.
