FAQ
Q: Do I need a proxy?
No. Arbeitsagentur exposes a public JSON API at rest.arbeitsagentur.de/jobboerse/jobsuche-service/pc/v4/jobs that requires only a public X-API-Key header (jobboerse-jobsuche). This key is shared by all official Arbeitsagentur frontends. The scraper works from any datacenter IP.
Q: What's the maximum results per query?
The API returns up to 100 results per page. The scraper paginates automatically until maxItems is reached or results run out.
Q: Are Austrian jobs included?
Yes. Arbeitsagentur cooperates with the Austrian AMS, so listings include both German and Austrian jobs. The country field shows Deutschland or Österreich.
Q: Why is street sometimes empty?
Many employers don't disclose the street address. The API returns the literal string "null" in that case — the scraper converts it to an empty string.
Q: How fresh is the data? The API serves the live Arbeitsagentur index. New jobs typically appear within 1-2 hours of being published.
