## Pricing

from $1.20 / 1,000 lever jobs

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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.

> **Unofficial independent tool.** Not affiliated with or endorsed by Lever, Inc. The Lever name
> identifies compatible public postings URLs only.

Create a normalized feed from public Lever postings on global or EU-hosted job sites. Retrieve
teams, locations, workplace type, commitment, public salary ranges, descriptions, and stable hiring
changes—without a Lever login.

### Best for

- Recruiting and job-search products
- Hiring-signal lead generation
- Company and competitor hiring trackers
- Job alerts, search indexes, and research datasets

### Run it

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://jobs.lever.co/palantir" }
  ],
  "maxItems": 1000,
  "mode": "snapshot",
  "includeDescription": true,
  "includeCompensation": true
}
```

EU boards such as `https://jobs.eu.lever.co/<site>` are routed to Lever's EU postings endpoint.
Multiple public boards can be processed in one run.

### Normalized fields

- Stable ID and content fingerprint
- Company and job title
- Team, department, commitment, and workplace type
- Primary and additional locations
- Public salary minimum, maximum, currency, and interval
- Hosted and application URLs
- Published timestamp and normalized description

Use `"mode": "changes"` for added, updated, and removed job events. Stable state is derived from
your sources and filters unless you provide `stateStoreName`. Temporary source failures suppress
removals instead of generating false paid events.

One default-dataset row is one chargeable job or job-change result. Source diagnostics remain in
the unpaid `OUTPUT` record.

### Cost and reliability

`maxItems` is a hard result cap. Apify shows the active price before the run and its maximum total
charge setting remains authoritative. Temporary source failures preserve prior state and cannot
create a paid removal flood.

### FAQ

**Does it need Lever credentials?** No. It reads the published Postings API only.

**Does it support EU boards?** Yes. `jobs.eu.lever.co` URLs route to Lever's EU endpoint.

**Does it apply to jobs or access candidates?** No.

The Actor reads only Lever's published Postings API. It does not access candidates, internal jobs,
accounts, sessions, or application submission endpoints.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Add one or more public Lever job-board URLs. HTTPS only.

## `sources` (type: `array`):

Optional advanced source objects with url, provider, companyName, and label.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Hard cap across all sources. One default-dataset item is one chargeable result.

## `mode` (type: `string`):

Snapshot emits current jobs. Changes emits only added, updated, and removed jobs versus saved state.

## `stateStoreName` (type: `string`):

Optional stable key-value store name. If omitted, one is derived from sources and filters.

## `titleKeywords` (type: `array`):

Emit jobs whose title contains at least one term. Leave empty for all titles.

## `excludeTitleKeywords` (type: `array`):

Drop jobs whose title contains any term.

## `locations` (type: `array`):

Case-insensitive location substrings. Leave empty for every location.

## `departments` (type: `array`):

Case-insensitive department substrings. Leave empty for every department.

## `remoteOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Emit only records identified as remote or hybrid.

## `postedAfter` (type: `string`):

Optional ISO date in YYYY-MM-DD format.

## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch and normalize descriptions when the source exposes them.

## `includeCompensation` (type: `boolean`):

Include public salary or compensation fields when the source exposes them.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

Bounded request concurrency across sources and detail pages.

## `requestTimeoutSecs` (type: `integer`):

Maximum time allowed for each source request.

## `retryCount` (type: `integer`):

Retries timeout, rate-limit, and server errors with backoff.

## `failOnSourceError` (type: `boolean`):

When disabled, healthy sources still return results and failed sources cannot create false removals.
