## 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

## Career Page Scraper

Extract job listings from Canadian company career pages. Feed it a list of `{ slug, careerUrl }` pairs and it returns clean `{ title, url, location }` records for every open position.

ATS is auto-detected from the URL — no configuration needed.

### Supported ATS platforms

| ATS | Detection | Browser? |
|---|---|---|
| **Greenhouse** | `boards.greenhouse.io`, `job-boards.greenhouse.io` | No |
| **Lever** | `jobs.lever.co` | No |
| **Workday** | `*.myworkdayjobs.com` | No |
| **SmartRecruiters** | `*.smartrecruiters.com` | No |
| **Jobvite** | `jobs.jobvite.com` | No |
| **UltiPro (UKG Pro)** | `recruiting.ultipro.com`, `recruiting.ultipro.ca` | No |
| **ADP WFN** | `workforcenow.adp.com` | Yes |
| **Oracle HCM CE** | `*.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience`, `/sites/XX_N/` URLs | Yes |
| **BambooHR** | `*.bamboohr.com` | Yes |
| **iCIMS** | `*.icims.com` | Yes |
| **Taleo** | `*.taleo.net` | Yes |
| **Custom pages** | everything else | Yes |

### Input

```json
{
  "companies": [
    { "slug": "cdn-controls",   "careerUrl": "https://workforcenow.adp.com/mascsr/default/mdf/recruitment/recruitment.html?cid=208130f4-7c8d-4127-9ad0-701715a753f9&ccId=9200462645748_2&lang=en_CA" },
    { "slug": "telus",          "careerUrl": "https://boards.greenhouse.io/telus" },
    { "slug": "rogers",         "careerUrl": "https://rogers.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/External" },
    { "slug": "shaw",           "careerUrl": "https://jobs.lever.co/shaw" }
  ],
  "maxJobsPerCompany": 0,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
}
```

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `companies` | array | required | **One company per run.** Single-element array: `{ slug, careerUrl, atsType? }`. `atsType` is optional — overrides auto-detection when the URL doesn't match a known pattern (e.g. custom domains) |
| `maxJobsPerCompany` | integer | `0` | Cap results per company. `0` = unlimited |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | RESIDENTIAL | Proxy config. Residential recommended for ADP/iCIMS/Taleo |

### Output

One dataset item per company:

```json
{
  "slug": "cdn-controls",
  "atsType": "adp",
  "jobCount": 15,
  "jobs": [
    {
      "title": "Field Technician – BC Lower Mainland",
      "url": "https://workforcenow.adp.com/mascsr/...&requisitionId=12345",
      "location": "Vancouver, BC"
    }
  ],
  "error": null
}
```

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `slug` | string | Company slug passed in input |
| `atsType` | string | Detected ATS (`greenhouse`, `lever`, `workday`, `adp`, `bamboohr`, `smartrecruiters`, `jobvite`, `icims`, `taleo`, `generic`) |
| `jobCount` | integer | Total jobs found |
| `jobs` | array | List of `{ title, url, location }` objects |
| `jobs[].title` | string | Job title |
| `jobs[].url` | string | Direct link to the job posting |
| `jobs[].location` | string | City and province/state (e.g. `Vancouver, BC`) |
| `error` | string|null | Error message if scrape failed, otherwise `null` |

On failure, `jobCount` is `0` and `error` contains the message.

### How it works

#### API-first (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Jobvite, UltiPro)

These platforms expose public endpoints that return all job data without a browser. Fast, cheap, and no anti-bot risk.

#### Browser-based (ADP WFN, Oracle HCM CE, BambooHR, iCIMS, Taleo, custom pages)

Single-page applications that require a real browser session to load job data. The actor handles session establishment, dynamic content loading, and pagination automatically.

# Actor input Schema

## `companies` (type: `array`):

One company per run. Provide a single entry with slug and careerUrl. Optionally include atsType to override auto-detection (greenhouse, lever, workday, adp, bamboohr, smartrecruiters, jobvite, icims, taleo, generic). Example: \[{"slug": "cdn-controls", "careerUrl": "https://workforcenow.adp.com/...", "atsType": "adp"}]

## `maxJobsPerCompany` (type: `integer`):

Cap job results per company. 0 = unlimited.

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

Used only for browser-based engines (ADP, BambooHR, iCIMS, Taleo, custom pages). Direct API scrapers (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Jobvite) bypass this entirely — no proxy credits consumed for those.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "companies": [
    {
      "slug": "autotrader-canada",
      "careerUrl": "https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/autotradercanada"
    }
  ],
  "maxJobsPerCompany": 0,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `jobListings` (type: `string`):

Dataset of scraped job listings. Each item: { slug, atsType, jobCount, jobs: \[{ title, url, location }], error }

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "companies": [
        {
            "slug": "autotrader-canada",
            "careerUrl": "https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/autotradercanada"
        }

        "apifyProxyGroups": [
            "RESIDENTIAL"
        ]
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("netorb/netorb-web-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

    },
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("netorb/netorb-web-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "companies": [
    {
      "slug": "autotrader-canada",
      "careerUrl": "https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/autotradercanada"
    }
  ],
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  }
}' |

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,netorb/netorb-web-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
