## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

## Jobindex.dk Scraper

#### The smartest way to collect Danish job listings at scale

---

Tired of manually browsing Jobindex.dk? This scraper does it for you — automatically extracting job listings, full descriptions, contact details, and application info from Denmark's largest job board.

Set your search query, hit run, and get structured, ready-to-use data in minutes.

---

### What You Get

Every job listing is extracted with the data that actually matters:

**From search results** — job title, company name, location, area, posting date, deadline, company logo URL, and a short preview of the description.

**From Jobindex detail pages** — the complete job description, contact person name and title, phone number, email, application deadline, working hours, full address, and automatic detection of requirements like driving license or own car.

**From HR-Manager / Talentech pages** *(beta)* — many Danish employers use the Talentech recruitment platform. When a listing redirects to candidate.hr-manager.net, this scraper follows the link and extracts the full description, contact info, deadline, working hours, and company website — all merged into one clean entry.

No duplicates. No separate entries. Every piece of data lands in the same record.

---

### Who Is This For?

**Recruitment agencies** monitoring the Danish job market for trends, client opportunities, or competitive intelligence.

**HR departments** keeping an eye on what competitors are offering and how they position open roles.

**Job boards and aggregators** pulling fresh listings from Jobindex to republish or enrich their own platforms.

**Market researchers** studying employment trends, salary patterns, regional demand, and sector activity across Denmark.

**Developers building job-related tools** who need clean, structured Danish job data via API without maintaining their own scraper infrastructure.

---

### How It Works

1. **Enter your search URL** — use any Jobindex search page as your starting point. Filter by keyword, location, job type, or industry directly on Jobindex, then paste the URL.

2. **Choose what to scrape** — toggle Jobindex detail pages for full descriptions and contact info. Enable the Talentech beta to also capture jobs hosted on HR-Manager.

3. **Set your limits** — control how many items to collect and how many pages to crawl. The scraper paginates automatically.

4. **Run and export** — results are saved as structured JSON. Export to CSV, Excel, Google Sheets, or connect directly via API and webhooks.

---

### Smart Classification

Not all jobs on Jobindex are hosted the same way. This scraper automatically classifies every listing:

**Jobindex-hosted jobs** link directly to a `/jobannonce/` page on Jobindex.dk. These contain the full job description, structured contact info, and application details — all extracted automatically.

**Talentech / HR-Manager jobs** link to `candidate.hr-manager.net`, a popular Danish recruitment platform. The scraper detects these links, navigates to the external page, and extracts the full content — including descriptions, bullet-point requirements, contact person, deadline, and working hours.

**Other external jobs** link to company career pages, recruitment platforms, or PDF files. These are saved with their resolved destination URL for manual review or further processing.

---

### Output Fields

Each record contains a rich set of fields, depending on the source:

**Always included** — title, company name, company URL, city, area, posting date, deadline, search preview text, source URL, and timestamp.

**Jobindex detail pages** — full description, contact name, contact title, contact phone, contact email, application deadline, working hours, full address, application emails, driving license required, own car required.

**Talentech detail pages** — full description, contact name, contact title, contact phone, contact email, application deadline, working hours, company website, location, start date.

---

### Built for Reliability

Jobindex is a JavaScript-heavy site with cookie consent overlays, browser version warnings, and aggressive resource loading. This scraper handles all of it.

**Cookie banners** are dismissed automatically. **Browser warnings** are prevented by spoofing a modern User-Agent and stripped from output as a safety net. **Detail pages** are parsed server-side for speed and reliability — no waiting for JavaScript to render. **Talentech cookie policy text** is filtered out line by line so your descriptions are clean.

The scraper uses Playwright for search pages (which require JavaScript) and Cheerio for detail pages (which are server-rendered), striking the right balance between compatibility and performance.

---

### Configuration

| Setting | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Start URLs | One or more Jobindex search URLs | Required |
| Max Items | Maximum number of job listings to collect | 50 |
| Max Pages | Maximum search result pages to crawl (0 = unlimited) | 0 |
| Scrape Jobindex Detail Pages | Extract full descriptions and contact info from Jobindex-hosted jobs | Off |
| [BETA] Scrape HR-Manager Pages | Follow and extract Talentech/HR-Manager job pages | Off |
| Delay Between Requests | Milliseconds to wait between page loads | 500 |
| Proxy Configuration | Use Apify proxies or your own | Optional |

---

### Quick Start

1. Click **Try for free** on this Actor's page.
2. Paste a Jobindex search URL (e.g. `https://www.jobindex.dk/jobsoegning?q=rengøring`).
3. Check **Scrape Jobindex Detail Pages** for full descriptions.
4. Set **Max Items** to 10 for a quick test.
5. Hit **Start** and explore your data.

---

### Pricing and Usage

This Actor runs on the Apify platform. You only pay for the compute and proxy resources you use. A typical run scraping 50 listings with full detail extraction takes 3–5 minutes on the free tier.

---

*Built with Playwright, Cheerio, and the Crawlee framework. Runs on Apify's infrastructure with automatic scaling, scheduling, and integrations.*

# Actor input Schema

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

Jobindex.dk search/listing URLs to start scraping from.
## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of job listings to extract. Set 0 for unlimited.
## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of pages to paginate through per start URL. Set 0 for unlimited.
## `scrapeJobindexDetails` (type: `boolean`):

If checked, jobs hosted directly on Jobindex.dk (jobannonce pages) will have their full detail page scraped — extracting full description, contact person, application deadline, address, and more.
## `scrapeTalentech` (type: `boolean`):

BETA: If checked, jobs that redirect to candidate.hr-manager.net will have their full description, contact info, deadline, and working hours scraped and merged into the listing. Adds extra time per redirected job.
## `delayBetweenRequests` (type: `integer`):

Milliseconds to wait between page requests. Higher values are more polite.
## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify proxy configuration. Leave empty to scrape without proxies.
