FAQ

Do I need a Reed account or API key? No. The Actor reads Reed.co.uk's public job search directly — no login and no API key required.

How many jobs can I get per run? Use maxItems to cap results per keyword. Each keyword in searchQueries is scraped separately, so more keywords means more coverage across UK roles and locations.

Is scraping Reed.co.uk legal? Only public data shown to any visitor on Reed.co.uk is scraped. This is an independent tool, not affiliated with Reed; check Reed's Terms of Service and applicable regulations for your use case.

What's the output format? Structured JSON — one record per job with title, company, location, salary, sector, contractType, remote, dates and (optionally) the full description. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel.

Can I filter by location, salary or keyword? Yes. Filter by location with an adjustable proximity radius in miles, plus salaryFrom/salaryTo, full-time/part-time flags and contractType (permanent / contract / temp).

Can I integrate this with other tools? The Reed Job Scraper can be connected with almost any cloud service or web app thanks to integrations on the Apify platform. It works with Make, Zapier, Slack, Airbyte, GitHub, Google Drive and many more, plus the Apify API, JavaScript/Python clients and MCP. Or use webhooks to trigger an action whenever a run finishes.
