## 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

## Remote Jobs Aggregator — 7 Boards in One Run

Pull remote job listings from **seven major remote-work boards in a single run** — RemoteOK, WeWorkRemotely, Remotive, Arbeitnow, Jobicy, Himalayas, and Working Nomads — normalized into one clean schema. Search by keyword, get structured JSON.

No login, no proxy needed. Fast and cheap.

### Why this scraper

- **Seven boards, one schema** — stop running seven different scrapers and stitching the output together.
- **One keyword, everywhere** — search title, company, tags, and description across all sources at once.
- **Precise filters** — narrow by job type, location/region, salary, and how recently a job was posted.
- **Cross-board dedup** — the same role often appears on several boards; get one record listing every board it was found on (`foundOnSources`).
- **Clean, consistent fields** — title, company, category, tags, location, salary, posted date, apply URL, and full description.
- **Cheap and fast** — these are open feeds, so runs are lightweight with no browser overhead.

### Use cases

- **Build or fill a remote job board** with fresh listings from multiple sources.
- **Job-market research** — track remote hiring, in-demand skills, and categories.
- **Alerts & dashboards** — feed new remote roles into Slack, a sheet, or your own app via the API.
- **Recruiting** — monitor where companies post remote roles.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `search` | string | Keyword filter across title/company/tags/description |
| `sources` | array | Pick any of the 7 boards (default: all) |
| `jobType` | string | Keep jobs whose type contains this (untagged jobs kept) |
| `location` | string | Keep jobs whose location contains this (e.g. `USA`, `Europe`) |
| `postedWithinDays` | integer | Only jobs posted within N days |
| `minSalary` | integer | Only jobs advertising at least this salary |
| `dedupe` | boolean | Merge the same job across boards (default `true`) |
| `sortByNewest` | boolean | Newest first (default `true`) |
| `maxItems` | integer | Cap the final combined count |
| `maxItemsPerSource` | integer | Cap per board before combining (default `100`) |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Optional — only needed if you hit rate limits |

```json
{
    "search": "react",
    "sources": ["remoteok", "weworkremotely", "remotive"],
    "maxItemsPerSource": 200
}
```

### Output

One dataset item per job:

```json
{
    "source": "remoteok",
    "id": "1135294",
    "title": "Senior React Engineer",
    "company": "Acme",
    "companyLogo": "https://…",
    "category": "Full-Stack Programming",
    "tags": ["react", "typescript", "remote"],
    "jobType": "Full-Time",
    "location": "Anywhere in the World",
    "salaryMin": 90000,
    "salaryMax": 130000,
    "salaryText": "90000-130000",
    "url": "https://…",
    "applyUrl": "https://…",
    "publishedDate": "2026-07-23T07:31:34+00:00",
    "descriptionText": "…",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-07-24T00:00:00.000Z"
}
```

### Notes

- Only publicly available listings are collected.
- Fields present vary by source (e.g. RemoteOK provides salary ranges; WeWorkRemotely provides categories).

# Actor input Schema

## `search` (type: `string`):

Filter jobs by keyword across title, company, tags and description (e.g. "react", "designer"). Leave empty for all jobs.

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

Which remote job boards to scrape.

## `jobType` (type: `string`):

Keep jobs whose type contains this text (e.g. "full", "contract", "part"). Jobs from boards that don't tag a type are kept. Leave empty for all.

## `location` (type: `string`):

Keep jobs whose location contains this text (e.g. "USA", "Europe", "worldwide"). Jobs with no listed location are kept. Leave empty for all.

## `postedWithinDays` (type: `integer`):

Keep only jobs posted within this many days. Leave empty for all.

## `minSalary` (type: `integer`):

Keep only jobs advertising at least this salary (excludes jobs with no salary listed). Leave empty to ignore salary.

## `dedupe` (type: `boolean`):

The same job is often posted to several boards. Merge them into one record listing every board it was found on.

## `sortByNewest` (type: `boolean`):

Order the combined results by publish date, newest first.

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

Cap the final combined result count (after filtering and dedup). Leave empty for no overall cap.

## `maxItemsPerSource` (type: `integer`):

Cap how many jobs are pulled from each board before combining.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

These sources are open, so a proxy is usually not needed. Enable one only if you hit rate limits.
