Jobfeed Labor Market Data API - job postings and hiring trends

Jobfeed Labor Market Data API turns the Textkernel Jobfeed / Market IQ labor market dataset into a clean, structured export. Query millions of job postings by title, employer, location, source website and posting date, and download every match - job title, hiring organization, industry, location, source, salary and date - as JSON, CSV or Excel.

Bring your own Jobfeed credentials and pay only for the postings you keep.

Why use this actor?

• Structured labor market data - job title, employer, industry, location, region, source website, source URL, posting date, salary and profession, parsed into flat columns.
• Precise filters - filter by job title, organization name, location, source website and posting date range, with sort by any field ascending or descending.
• Relative and absolute dates - use 2024-01-01 style dates or relative values like today-1M for rolling windows.
• Pay per result - you are charged only for the postings actually returned, up to 1,000 per run.
• Reliable API access - data comes through the Jobfeed Data API with retry, backoff and rate-limit handling built in, so runs are fast and stable.

Use cases

• Labor market research - measure hiring demand by role, employer, industry, location or time period.
• Competitor hiring analysis - track which organizations are posting which roles, and where.
• Recruitment intelligence - benchmark job availability, salaries and sources across a market.
• Workforce planning - map skills and profession demand over rolling date windows to inform headcount and talent strategy.

Do I need credentials?

Yes. Jobfeed / Market IQ is an enterprise labor market product from Textkernel, so this actor cannot supply access on your behalf. You need an enterprise Jobfeed / Market IQ account, which gives you three things:

• a Jobfeed domain - your regional base URL, e.g. https://www.jobfeed.de, https://us.jobfeed.com or https://www.jobfeed.nl
• a username
• a password

Paste all three into the input and run. Contact Textkernel to obtain access. Your credentials are stored securely and never logged.

Pay per result

You pay only for the job postings the actor actually returns - no subscriptions, no minimums. Set Maximum results to cap each run's spend exactly. A run that returns nothing costs almost nothing.

FAQ

What is the Jobfeed Labor Market Data API?

Jobfeed, part of Textkernel Market IQ, is a labor market intelligence dataset built from online job postings collected across job boards, company career sites and other sources. Its Data API returns those postings as structured records - job title, hiring organization, industry, location, source and posting date - so you can run labor market research, competitor hiring analysis and recruitment intelligence without scraping.

What filters can I use?

Job title, organization name, location, source website and a posting date range. Dates accept absolute values (YYYY-MM-DD) or relative values (today-1M). You can sort by any returned field, ascending or descending, and restrict the returned fields to keep exports lean.

Do I need an account?

Yes. Jobfeed / Market IQ is an enterprise product. You must supply your provisioned Jobfeed domain, username and password. Contact Textkernel to obtain a Jobfeed / Market IQ account.

What data is included per posting?

Typical fields include job title, organization name, organization industry, location, region, source website, source URL, posting date, expiration date, salary, profession, education level and full text. The exact fields available depend on your Jobfeed deployment; use the Fields input to select only the ones you need.

How many results per run?

Up to 1,000 postings per run, paged automatically at up to 100 per request. For larger pulls, split by date range, organization, location or source website, or run on a schedule and collect new postings each day.

How much does it cost?

Pricing is pay-per-result: a small fixed amount per posting returned, plus standard Apify platform usage. Your Jobfeed account is billed separately by Textkernel.

Can I run this on a schedule?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules to run it hourly or daily and connect the dataset to Zapier, Make, n8n, webhooks or the API to pipe new postings into your BI tools, data warehouse or CRM.

Is this legal?

The actor returns labor market data from the Jobfeed / Market IQ Data API, retrieved through your own licensed enterprise account. Access is governed by your agreement with Textkernel. No credentials are shared and no login-walled personal data is scraped.
