FAQs

Can I scrape only jobs posted within a specific time range? Yes, you can filter by hours, days, weeks, months, or years. Entering “1 day” or “12 hours” limits results accordingly.

Can I scrape specific job IDs? Yes. Provide an array of job IDs and the scraper will return only those postings. Other settings are ignored.

Can I upload job IDs from a file? Currently, IDs must be provided directly in input parameters.

Does the scraper require proxies? Proxy usage is already handled internally to ensure stable performance.
