## 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.

## Bumeran Group Scraper

![Bumeran Group Scraper — 8 LATAM Job Boards](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/ClElVyZWvQgPQIuDL/records/bumeran-scraper)

Extract structured job listings from all **8 Bumeran Group brands** across 7 Latin American countries — Argentina (Bumeran + ZonaJobs), Chile (Laborum), Ecuador (Multitrabajos), Mexico (Bumeran), Panama (Konzerta), Peru (Bumeran), and Venezuela (Bumeran). 52,000+ active listings combined. No API key required.

***

### Why this scraper?

#### 🌎 8 brands, 7 countries — one actor

Switch between Bumeran Argentina, ZonaJobs, Laborum (Chile), Multitrabajos (Ecuador), Bumeran Mexico, Konzerta (Panama), Bumeran Peru, and Bumeran Venezuela with a single input field.

#### ⚡ Zero proxy cost

All brands respond without a proxy from standard datacenter IPs. No residential proxy fees — ever.

#### 🔍 Rich filtering

Filter by keyword, province/region, job sector, employment type (full-time, part-time, by the hour), and work modality (remote, hybrid, on-site).

#### 📄 Full job details on demand

Enable `fetchDetails` to retrieve the complete HTML job description, seniority level, contract type, education requirements, and employer benefits for each listing.

#### 🔁 90-day cross-run deduplication

A persistent repost memory across runs flags jobs you have already collected and lets you skip them — essential for daily-feed pipelines.

#### 🛡️ Self-healing with circuit breaker

Automatic retry with exponential backoff, circuit breaker to stop on sustained failures, and a health signal written to the KV store after every run.

### 💰 Pricing

**$0.99 per 1,000 results** — you only pay for successfully retrieved listings. Failed retries and filtered reposts are never charged.

| 10,000 | ~$9.90 |
| 100,000 | ~$99.00 |

> Flat-rate alternatives typically charge $29–$49/month regardless of usage.

Use the **Max results** cap in the input to control your spend exactly.

### Performance

| Run size | No `fetchDetails` | With `fetchDetails` |
|----------|-------------------|---------------------|
| 100 jobs | ~15 sec | ~2 min |
| 500 jobs | ~1 min | ~8 min |
| 2,000 jobs | ~3 min | ~30 min |
| 10,000 jobs | ~12 min | ~2.5 hr |

***

### Known limitations

- Publication date filtering is natively limited to 1, 2, or 3 days. Values above 3 use client-side filtering, which may slightly reduce throughput.
- Salary data is not published by the vast majority of employers on Bumeran Group platforms and is therefore not included in the output.
- Benefits, seniority, contract type, and education requirements are only available with `fetchDetails: true`.
- Contact details (recruiter name, email, phone) are not included in output in compliance with PII policy.
- ZonaJobs and Bumeran Argentina share the same listing database — running both will return duplicate jobs.

### Run it on a schedule

This actor is built for repeat use. Set it to run daily, weekly, or hourly, and the data keeps flowing without you touching it.

- **Schedule runs** — open the actor, go to Schedules, and pick a cadence. Each run only charges you for the results it returns.
- **Connect it to your stack** — push results straight to Google Sheets, Slack, a webhook, or your database using Apify Integrations. No glue code needed.
- **Pull results via API** — every run writes a clean dataset you can fetch with one API call, ready for whatever you build on top of it.

Set it once and it runs on its own.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQuery` (type: `string`):

Job title, skill, or keyword. Leave empty to browse all listings.

## `brand` (type: `string`):

## `fetchDetails` (type: `boolean`):

ON: fetches full job description, salary, company info, and all details. OFF: returns basic listing info only (faster, lower cost).

Skip UNCHANGED and REPOST jobs — only emit listings with changeStatus=NEW. Ideal for daily feed pipelines where you only want genuinely new jobs.

## `compactMode` (type: `boolean`):
