No code: run it on the Apify Store

Open the Indeed Jobs Scraper page on Apify.
Fill in the input form. An example input is already filled in.
Press Start, wait for the run to finish, and download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel from the Output tab.

The input that is pre-filled on the Actor page:

{
  "query": "data analyst",
  "location": "Remote",
  "datePosted": "any",
  "jobType": "",
  "maxPages": 1,
  "maxItems": 20
}

Python (apify-client)

Get your API token in Apify Console under Settings, then Integrations. The Actor id is v0iddo/indeed-scraper.

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")

run_input = {'query': 'data analyst',
 'location': 'Remote',
 'datePosted': 'any',
 'jobType': '',
 'maxPages': 1,
 'maxItems': 20}

run = client.actor("v0iddo/indeed-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/v0iddo~indeed-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "data analyst", "location": "Remote", "datePosted": "any", "jobType": "", "maxPages": 1, "maxItems": 20}'

Good to know

Salary, posting date, job types and the remote flag are filled when Indeed shows them on the search card. Sponsored marks paid listings; turn off Include sponsored jobs to keep only the others.
