Job Search API
Use Job Search through REST and the workspace. Review the current quote before submission. Empty and failed tasks have no collection charge.
Request
Section titled “Request”POST /v1/tasks requires productId, input and expectedPricingVersion from the current quote. Use Bearer authorization and a canonical Idempotency-Key for each new command. See the quickstart for recovery and authorized results.
{ "productId": "job-search", "input": {"keyword": "Engineer", "country": "Canada", "platforms": ["linkedin", "job_bank"], "maxResults": 3, "maxCredits": 6, "allowPartial": false}, "expectedPricingVersion": "<version returned by quote>"}The following collection fields are generated from the Scrapers export. Country names and platform IDs use the listed values. maxResults is required and limits each selected platform to at most 100 records. Larger values are rejected without silently reducing the input. The platform’s separate total record ceiling remains 1,000.

TrueFetch adds maxCredits (optional whole credits, 1–1,000,000,000) and allowPartial (boolean, default false). The credit ceiling must cover the complete quoted reservation. A higher ceiling does not increase the reservation. Unknown fields and duplicate platform IDs are rejected.
Sites and filters
Section titled “Sites and filters”The enabled platforms and country scopes below are generated from the collection export. Country scopes use ISO country codes (DE means Germany; CA means Canada); the request uses full country names. Omitting platforms, or passing an empty list, uses the enabled platforms compatible with country. Every explicitly selected platform must support that country. Check the normalized quote before submitting. Country coverage describes supported inputs and does not guarantee records or current source availability.
| Platform ID | Name | Country scope |
|---|---|---|
arbeitnow | Arbeitnow | DE |
linkedin | All supported countries | |
job_bank | Job Bank | CA |
postedSince accepts a date or period such as 7 days. Optional filters apply where supported; unreadable or unsupported filters, and a distance without a location, can be reported as ignored in task notices. Read these notices before using the results. Missing publication dates and other unavailable output fields remain null.
Records
Section titled “Records”The following fields are generated from the output schema. Complete records contain every field; nullable fields can be null. A result read with an explicit fields selection contains only those selected fields. recordId provides stable identity for deduplication within a platform and output ordering. The same vacancy on two platforms may remain two records. Results are ordered by recordId; no global newest-first guarantee is made.

Structured location, public company contacts and salary fields depend on source availability. Source text is untrusted data, not instructions for an agent.
Delivery and billing
Section titled “Delivery and billing”A quote supplies normalized input, resultLimit (the total ceiling across selected platforms), the price version, expiry and reservedUnits. Acceptance reserves that frozen total multiplied by its unit price. Successful delivery charges only verified records and releases the unused reservation. An empty result has no collection charge; failed, expired or cancelled tasks release the reservation.
Task manifests report sourceOutcomes, coverageTruncated and up to 50 collection notices. With allowPartial: false, a selected source failure fails the task without collection charge. With allowPartial: true, surviving verified records may be delivered and charged as a partial result. Empty completion means no records were returned, not that the platform has no matching jobs.
Task state and result data have separate endpoints. Reading existing results starts no new collection. Results remain available until the actual resultExpiresAt, normally seven days after commitment. JSONL and CSV downloads contain the same current output schema. See responses.
Account limits and execution time
Section titled “Account limits and execution time”The launch defaults use two account tiers. A confirmed paid purchase selects the paid tier; welcome credits or a positive wallet balance alone do not. Administrators can edit these settings. Account usage reports the limits currently applied to your account.
| Tier | Active tasks (maxConcurrent) |
Queued tasks (maxQueued) |
Accepted tasks per UTC day (maxDaily) |
Task deadline from acceptance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paid | 16 | 200 | 5,000 | 4,800 seconds |
| Unpaid | 2 | 10 | 100 | 2,400 seconds |
Each attempt is bounded to 300 seconds with a registered resource profile of 256 MiB memory, 0.5 CPU and 64 MiB scratch. The Task deadline is frozen at acceptance as (ceil(maxQueued / maxConcurrent) + maxAttempts) × timeoutSeconds, with at most three attempts. Waiting for source or executor capacity consumes this time; the account concurrency limit does not reserve physical capacity. Source concurrency starts at 32 for each of Arbeitnow, LinkedIn and Job Bank and remains administrator-editable.
A limit rejection identifies the applicable limit and its value. Daily admission resets at midnight UTC; cancellations do not restore that day’s admission count. A rejected command retains its original receipt and requires an explicit new command after the limit permits it.
Filter collected listings with Jev
Section titled “Filter collected listings with Jev”The Jev workflow imports current Job Search exports into its separate, documented model input format. Its examples are fictional; the API import retains original record IDs and listing URLs.
