Input
The Configure input node holds the starter input. Change it there; every setting the Actor accepts is listed below.
{
"scrapeDetails": false,
"includeJobFamily": false,
"maxItems": 25,
"mode": "careerSite"
}| Setting | Type | Required | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| mode | string | Yes | careerSite | How to find jobs. 'Scrape career site URLs' accepts careers pages or job URLs. 'Scrape a tenant by name' uses tenant + site. 'Scrape specific job URLs' requires /job/... One of: careerSite, tenant, jobDetail. |
| startUrls | array | No | ["https://salesforce.wd12.myworkdayjo… | Public Workday careers-site or job URLs (mode=careerSite or jobDetail). Paste the URL from your browser; both myworkdayjobs.com and myworkdaysite.com are supported. |
| tenant | string | No | – | Workday tenant name, for example 'nvidia' or 'capitalone' (mode=tenant). You can also paste the full careers URL here or use 'tenant/site'. |
| site | string | No | – | Optional career site identifier shown in the URL after the tenant host, for example 'NVIDIAExternalCareerSite' or 'External_Career_Site' (mode=tenant). It is case-sensitive. |
| region | string | No | auto | Workday data-center region. Leave 'auto' to detect it, or set wd1, wd3, wd5, wd12, wd103, and similar when you already know it (mode=tenant). |
| searchText | string | No | – | Optional keyword passed to the site's own job search, for example 'engineer' or 'marketing'. Workday searches titles and descriptions. |
| locations | array | No | – | Optional locations to keep. Use names such as 'United States', 'New York', 'Remote' or 'US, CA, Santa Clara'; the actor matches them against the site's own location filters. |
| jobFamilies | array | No | – | Optional job families or categories to keep, for example 'Engineering', 'Sales' or 'Finance'. Names come from the site's own Job Category filter; IDs are also accepted. |
| remoteOnly | boolean | No | false | Keep only postings the employer explicitly marks as remote. Hybrid and onsite postings are excluded. This turns on full detail fetching. |
| postedWithin | string | No | any | Keep jobs posted within this window. 'Any time' applies no date filter. Use Posted After for an exact cutoff date. 8 choices. |
| postedAfter | string | No | – | Optional exact cutoff date in YYYY-MM-DD form. When both Posted Within and Posted After are set, the stricter cutoff wins. |
| startDateFrom | string | No | – | Optional YYYY-MM-DD cutoff for the role's start date. Only applies when the posting publishes a start date. This turns on full detail fetching. |
| scrapeDetails | boolean | No | true | Fetch each posting's public job page for the full description, exact posting date, employment type, work model and every location. |
| includeJobFamily | boolean | No | true | Add each job's family or category (for example Engineering or Sales). This uses the site's own Job Category filter and is skipped automatically when a site has no such filter. |
| maxItems | integer | No | 50 | Maximum number of jobs to save across all URLs. Jobs are returned in URL order, so a large first site can use the whole cap. |
| proxyConfiguration | object | No | {"useApifyProxy":false} | Optional. The actor works without a proxy and chooses a working connection automatically; change this only if you need a specific proxy setup. |
What each row holds
Every field the Actor returns stays in the row (6 in its dataset schema). Normalize + dedupe trims text, drops empty fields and adds _source and _scrapedAt. The main fields:
| Field | What it is |
|---|---|
| title | Title |
| tenant | Tenant |
| location | Location |
| postedOn | Posted On |
| timeType | Time Type |
| workplaceType | Workplace Type |

The Actor lists $0.99 per 1,000 results; its catalogue page breaks the price down by Apify plan. The Apify Free plan includes $5 of usage a month.

With the starter input (maxItems = 25) a first run costs about $0.42 on the Apify Free plan: $0.40 to start the run at 4 GB of memory and $0.02 for the results, plus platform usage. The Actor's Store page shows the current price.
Can I change what it collects?
Yes: edit the input object in the Configure input node. The Actor takes 16 settings; the table on this page lists each one with its default. Raise maxItems once the first rows look right.
