## 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.
For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

- **Job type detection** — Full time, Part time, Contract, Casual, Temporary, Internship
- **Full descriptions** — optional detail mode extracts complete job descriptions with HTML formatting
- **Automatic pagination** — scrapes across multiple result pages until your limit is reached
- **Proxy support** — configurable proxy for large-scale runs
### Input
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
| `startUrls` | array | — | Direct Jora URLs (search pages or job pages). Overrides keyword/location. |
| `country` | string | `au` | Country to search: `au`, `nz`, `sg`, `hk`, `my`, `id` |

### Use Cases
- **Job market research** — analyze hiring trends, in-demand skills, and salary ranges across Asia-Pacific
- **Salary benchmarking** — compare compensation for the same role across countries and cities
- **Recruitment intelligence** — monitor competitor hiring and new job openings
- **Career exploration** — find opportunities matching specific skills and locations
- **Remote work tracking** — identify companies offering flexible work arrangements
- **Regional comparison** — compare job markets between Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia
### Tips
- **Start with default mode** — it's much faster and gives you all the key data. Use `extractDetails: true` only when you need the full description text.
- **Use the country selector** to target a specific market, or provide direct URLs from different country subdomains to search across multiple markets.
- **Set `maxItems`** to control costs and run time. Each result page contains about 15 jobs.
- **Proxy is recommended** for large runs (100+ jobs) to avoid rate limiting.
### Integrate via API
The scraped data can be downloaded in JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS format via the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2).
### Your Feedback
If you have any feedback or found a bug, please create an issue on the Actor's Issues tab in Apify Console.
