## 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.

### Tips & best practices

- 🎯 **Be specific** — Precise job titles and skills return more relevant results than generic terms
- ⏱️ **Use `postedWithin`** for fresh listings — set to `24` for jobs from the last day
- 🔀 **Combine filters** — `jobType`, `isRemote`, and `easyApply` work together. Note: `postedWithin` cannot be combined with these filters (Indeed treats date filtering as a separate search dimension)
- 📅 **Schedule runs** — Use the Apify scheduler for daily or weekly market monitoring
- 🔗 **Integrate** — Connect via webhooks, Zapier, or Make to pipe data into Google Sheets, Airtable, Slack, or databases
- 📦 **Start small** — Test with `resultsWanted: 10` to validate your search criteria, then scale up
- 🌍 **Multi-country** — Run the same search across multiple countries by scheduling separate runs with different `country` values
- 💡 **Use `remote` location** — Set location to `remote` with `isRemote: true` for fully remote positions

### Frequently asked questions

#### How many jobs can I scrape per run?

Up to **1,000 jobs** per run. For larger volumes, schedule multiple runs with different search terms or locations.

#### Which countries are supported?

All **62 countries** where Indeed operates — including the US, UK, Germany, India, Japan, Brazil, Canada, Australia, and many more. See the [full country list](#supported-countries).

#### Can I search for remote jobs?

Yes. Set the location to `remote` and enable the **Remote Only** filter. You can also combine `isRemote` with job type filters.

#### Why are some output fields empty?

Data availability depends on what the employer provided. Not all listings include compensation data, company descriptions, or direct apply URLs. The scraper returns whatever is available.

#### Can I combine multiple filters?

Yes — `jobType`, `isRemote`, and `easyApply` can be used together. However, `postedWithin` cannot be combined with these filters because Indeed treats date filtering as a separate search dimension.

#### What format is the output?

Each job is a flat JSON object with 45+ fields. You can download the dataset in **JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or XML** from the Apify Console, or access it via the Apify API.

#### Is this scraper compliant with Indeed's Terms of Service?

This tool retrieves publicly available job listing data. Users are responsible for reviewing and complying with Indeed's Terms of Service, robots.txt, and applicable local laws before using the data commercially.

#### Can I run this on a schedule?

Yes. Use the Apify **Scheduler** to run this Actor daily, weekly, or at any interval — ideal for monitoring job market trends or tracking new postings.

## MCP server setup

```json

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
