Indeed Job Postings
Indeed job postings as employer leads — which companies are hiring, where, for what and at what pay.
115 rows in the dataset
Download the dataset
Get every row this scraper has collected as one CSV or JSONL file. If the data is older than maxAgeHours, the scraper is re-run with its configured settings first. The key needs the datasets:export scope.

The rate is 1 credit per 100 rows cached and 2 credits live, charged on the rows in the dataset when the download becomes ready. A failed refresh is not charged. The file stays downloadable for 24 hours. See pricing.
Start a run
To choose the targets yourself, send the parameters below as input. The call returns 202 with the run; the key needs the scrapers:run scope and the account a positive credit balance.
curl -X POST "https://api.pandorlabs.com/v1/scrapers/indeed-jobs/runs" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANDORLABS_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "input": { "queries": [ "software engineer" ], "locations": [ "Austin, TX", "New York, NY", "San Francisco, CA", "Chicago, IL" ], "radiusMiles": 50, "postedWithinDays": 0 } }'A run is billed at the live rate once it finishes: 2 credits per 100 rows it collected. A run that collects nothing costs nothing.
Parameters
Every parameter is optional. Anything you leave out uses the default shown here; an unknown name or an invalid value is rejected with a 400 that lists each problem.
Targeting
queriesstring[]
Search queries
One walk per query per location. Two queries across four locations is eight walks.
- Default
["software engineer"]- Example
software engineer
locationsstring[]
Locations
Anything Indeed’s own location box accepts — a metro, a postal code, a state, or a country.
- Default
["Austin, TX","New York, NY","San Francisco, CA","Chicago, IL"]- Example
Austin, TX
radiusMilesnumber
Search radius (miles)
Ignored by Indeed for country-wide locations.
- Default
50- Range
- 0 to 100
postedWithinDaysnumber
Posted within (days)
Zero means no age filter. A small value is what makes a scheduled run collect only what is new.
- Default
0- Range
- 0 to 365
domainenum
Indeed country site
- Default
www.indeed.com- Allowed values
www.indeed.comca.indeed.comuk.indeed.comie.indeed.comau.indeed.comnz.indeed.comde.indeed.comfr.indeed.comnl.indeed.comes.indeed.comit.indeed.comin.indeed.comsg.indeed.comza.indeed.com
includeSponsoredboolean
Include sponsored postings
A company paying to advertise a role is spending money on hiring, which is the signal this dataset exists for.
- Default
true
Advanced
maxPagesnumber
Pages per query
Each page is one request and yields roughly forty cards, heavily overlapping the page before it.
- Default
3- Range
- 1 to 50
startPagenumber
Start at page
- Default
1- Range
- 1 to 100
maxJobsnumber
Max jobs per run
Rows persist and re-runs upsert, so a ceiling here bounds one run, not the dataset.
- Default
5000- Range
- 1 to 100000
requestDelayMsnumber
Delay between requests (ms)
Indeed blocks on request rate before it blocks on volume. Lowering this is the fastest way to lose an address.
- Default
1500- Range
- 0 to 60000

The run is asynchronous. Poll it until it reaches a terminal status and its billing is paid, then page through its rows. Until then the rows endpoint answers 409 (still queued or running) or 402 (payment required).
