By [Dvir Atias](https://jobspipe.dev/about) · Updated Sep 29, 2026 Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, Indeed, LinkedIn and more - one jobs API returning normalized job data, with real-time webhooks on new postings and explicit per-source attribution. Self-serve, free to start. JobsPipe holds millions of active job postings, refreshed every day. [Get a free API key](https://jobspipe.dev/signup)[Read the docs](https://jobspipe.dev/docs) Quick disambiguation This is a recruiting and labor-market data API. If you landed here looking for the Databricks Jobs API (workspace job scheduling), see [docs.databricks.com](https://docs.databricks.com/api/workspace/jobs). If you’re looking for the Google Cloud Talent Solution API, it searches jobs you upload yourself, not Google’s listings - see our [guide to the Google Jobs API question](https://jobspipe.dev/guides/google-jobs-api). 30+ sources across ATSs and job boards Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Workable, Personio, Indeed, LinkedIn, CV-Library, EURES and more - all normalized to one schema. Real-time webhooks Push delivery on new postings, every source refreshed within 6-24 hours. No polling, no daily-batch latency, no missing the window. Explicit per-source attribution Filter searches by collector source with source\_or (linkedin, indeed, workday, greenhouse, workable, smartrecruiters, ashby, lever, paylocity, ycombinator) instead of querying a blended black box. Cross-source duplicates collapse into one stable record. ## A first request to the job data API One curl, no client library required. Filter by source, by title, by date - the same shape across every ATS we cover. ``` curl https://api.jobspipe.dev/v1/jobs/search \ -H "Authorization: Bearer jp_live_your_key_here" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "source_or": ["greenhouse"], "job_title_or": ["site reliability engineer"], "posted_at_gte": "2026-05-01", "limit": 25 }' # { # "metadata": { # "total_results": 412, # "truncated_results": 25, # "next_cursor": "eyJwIjoyfQ" # }, # "data": [ # { # "id": "gh_5634891", # "source": "greenhouse", # "tenant": "stripe", # "title": "Site Reliability Engineer, Infrastructure", # "company": "Stripe", # "location": "Remote, US", # "remote": true, # "salary": { "min": 180000, "max": 260000, "currency": "USD" }, # "employment_type": "full_time", # "posted_at": "2026-05-14T09:22:00Z", # "apply_url": "https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe/jobs/5634891", # "description": "..." # } # ] # } ``` ## A job search API and a job postings data API in one Most teams need both halves. As a **job search API**, JobsPipe answers live queries - title, location, salary, remote, seniority, skills - in one POST with cursor pagination. As a **job postings data API**, it feeds pipelines: poll `discovered_at_gte` for only-what's-new, track closures with `status` and `closed_reason`, and keep source attribution on every record. Same endpoint, same credits, no separate product. ## What the job data contains, board by board One schema does not mean every board fills every field. A job posting API is only as good as what the source publishes, so here is the share of active postings on each collected board that arrives with a salary range, a remote flag, a seniority label and an employment type. Filter on what is populated, not on what you hope is there. | Board | Salary range | Remote flag | Seniority | Employment type | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | LinkedIn | 22.1% | 4.3% | 48.6% | 99.1% | | Indeed | 36.8% | 3.9% | 17.9% | 71.6% | | Workday | 23.3% | 5.6% | 32.9% | 95.1% | | Greenhouse | 46.8% | 15.4% | 38.2% | 0.0% | | Workable | 19.6% | 16.7% | 22.3% | 79.0% | | Ashby | 56.1% | 24.9% | 39.0% | 100.0% | | Lever | 22.7% | 45.5% | 29.6% | 55.3% | | SmartRecruiters | 5.3% | 3.8% | 26.3% | 99.9% | | Y Combinator | 67.7% | 36.5% | 36.8% | 100.0% | | Paylocity | 10.7% | 2.8% | 7.4% | 0.0% | How this was measured Measured from active postings per collected board. Generated 2026-09-09. Shares only: JobsPipe publishes percentages, not counts. Shares are computed over active postings per board, deduplicated by posting id. Salary counts a stated range on the posting; seniority is parsed from the title or the body; remote and employment type are taken from the board when it publishes them. Shares below half a percent print as <0.5%. ``` curl -X POST https://api.jobspipe.dev/v1/jobs/search \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $JOBSPIPE_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"source_or":["greenhouse"],"status":"active","limit":25}' ``` ## Sources covered 30+ sources across ATSs and job boards today, with explicit per-source schema. Every record carries the source name and the tenant identifier so you can filter, scope, or exclude. For the ATS side specifically, the [ATS job aggregator](https://jobspipe.dev/ats-job-aggregator) page covers why each platform publishes per tenant rather than in aggregate.

JobsPipe is $1.16 per 1,000 on Scale and $1.05 on Business. TheirStack runs $32.67 to $1.10 per 1,000 jobs, Fantastic.jobs $4.75 to $1.80 per 1,000 jobs and Coresignal $19.60 to $0.50 per 1,000 jobs, falling as the plan grows.

It is what you'd build instead of scraping individual career sites. The JobsPipe Jobs API covers 30+ sources across ATSs and job boards, returns a stable schema, and pushes real-time webhooks on new postings. Is the JobsPipe Jobs API the same as the Databricks Jobs API?+ No, and this is a common confusion in search. Databricks has a REST API also called 'Jobs API' that schedules and monitors data-processing jobs in a Databricks workspace. It has nothing to do with job postings or recruiting. JobsPipe's Jobs API is for reading job listings across employers - the recruiting and labor-market data sense of 'jobs'. Is there an official LinkedIn or Indeed Jobs API I should use instead?+ Only with serious constraints. LinkedIn's Talent API is gated and requires a partner agreement; it isn't generally available. Indeed's developer program is open but limited to specific use cases. Most teams that need flexible, cross-source jobs data end up using a unified jobs API like JobsPipe that handles the per-source differences behind one schema. What sources does the JobsPipe Jobs API cover?+ 30+ sources today, with active additions. The ATSs are Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Workable, Personio, Recruitee, Teamtailor, Paylocity, Breezy HR, Manatal, Pinpoint, JobScore and HireHive. The job boards and public employment services are LinkedIn, Indeed, EURES, CV-Library, Y Combinator, Bayt, JobTech (Sweden), Resume-Library, Arbeitnow, Himalayas, Rise, The Muse, Remotive, Remote OK, Jobicy, Working Nomads and Landing.jobs. Job posting API, job data API, job board API - are these different things?+ Mostly different names for the same product category, emphasizing different uses. 'Job posting API' and 'job postings API' stress the record type; 'job data API' stresses analytics and enrichment use cases; 'job board API' usually means the supply side for building a job board; 'job aggregator API' describes the multi-source architecture. JobsPipe serves all of these: one normalized postings feed with per-source attribution, usable as a board supply layer, an analytics dataset, or a trigger stream. Is there a job search API?+ Yes - a job search API is a jobs API you query with search parameters (title, location, remote, salary, posted-after) and get matching postings back. That is exactly what JobsPipe's POST /v1/jobs/search endpoint is: send a JSON filter body, get normalized postings from 30+ sources. If you're adding job search to your own product, the search endpoint plus webhooks for freshness is the whole integration. Is a 'careers API' or 'career API' the same thing?+ Usually, yes. 'Careers API' and 'career API' are alternate names people use for a jobs or job-postings API - a programmatic way to read the open roles that would otherwise live on companies' careers pages. JobsPipe reads those careers-page postings across 30+ sources and returns them in one normalized schema, which is the careers API most teams are actually looking for. Is there a free jobs API?+ Yes, several - with different catches. JobsPipe's free tier includes 1,000 jobs to start across every source. Adzuna is free to register, with default limits of 25 calls a minute, 250 a day, 1,000 a week and 2,500 a month, with thinner per-job detail. USAJOBS is fully free but federal-government-only. Per-company ATS endpoints (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby) are free but cover one employer per call. We compare all the genuinely free options on our free jobs API page. Is the API self-serve or sales-led?+ Self-serve. You can sign up, get an API key, and make your first request in 30 seconds with no sales call. Free tier includes 1,000 jobs to start (1 credit = 1 job returned); paid plans start at $49/month. What does the schema look like?+ One normalized JobPosting object across all sources with stable fields: id, source, tenant, title, company, location, salary, employment\_type, remote, posted\_at, expires\_at, apply\_url, and description. Per-source extras are preserved in a raw field for cases where you need the original payload. How is JobsPipe different from Coresignal, Bright Data, or other jobs-data providers?+ Coresignal sells bulk historical jobs data with enterprise procurement attached and shines on multi-year back-data. Bright Data is a scraping-infrastructure company; jobs is one of many verticals they cover. JobsPipe is a focused, real-time, self-serve jobs API: smaller historical depth, faster freshness, indie pricing, explicit per-source schema. Side-by-side comparisons live under /alternatives. How fresh is the data?+ Sources are refreshed every 6-24 hours depending on source. New postings push via webhook when they appear. For real-time-critical workflows (sales triggers, hiring alerts) webhooks are the right surface; for backfills or bulk analytics, the REST search endpoint is the better fit. Is scraping job postings legal?+ It depends on jurisdiction and source. JobsPipe reads upstream-ATS public endpoints where the data is published in structured form by the source itself. That avoids most of the gray-area scraping concerns. For specific compliance questions, check your jurisdiction and the source's terms; we are not legal counsel. What is the best job posting API?+ It depends on what you are metering and who is buying. If a salesperson is the user and jobs are one signal among technographics and intent, TheirStack is built for that. If you are an enterprise data team buying bulk corpora, Coresignal is. If you already run scraping infrastructure across many verticals, Bright Data is. JobsPipe is built for developers who want upstream ATS postings normalized per source, priced at $1.16 per 1,000 jobs on Scale, with a free tier you can start on without talking to anyone. Anyone claiming one API is best for every case is selling, not comparing. How much does a jobs API cost?+ Published prices in this market run from free tiers with call caps to self-serve plans of several thousand dollars a month, with bulk datasets quoted by sales. The number that matters more than the sticker is the rate per 1,000 jobs, because that is the unit most vendors bill in and the only one that compares directly. JobsPipe starts with a free tier (1,000 jobs to start), then $49/month for 25,000 jobs and $348/month for 300,000 jobs, which is $1.16 per 1,000; TheirStack's nearest plan to that volume is 500,000 credits for $1,200 a month, and Fantastic.jobs publishes $4.75 to $1.80 per 1,000 jobs. Can I try the jobs API without an API key?+ Yes. The sandbox endpoint at POST https://api.jobspipe.dev/v1/sandbox/jobs/search accepts the same filters as the live endpoint and needs no authentication, so you can confirm the request and response shape before signing up. It answers with sample records rather than live postings; swap in /v1/jobs/search with a key to query the real index. Get the Jobs API running in 30 seconds.
