Scrape the York CVS jobs board at yorkcvs.livevacancies.co.uk — even though it's a Vue SPA. No browser automation needed. The actor reverse-engineered the hireful SaaS bundle and hits the public JSON API directly with a single HTTP call. Each row carries title, salary, location, full description HTML, ISO closing date, region, contract type, hours, employer brand info, and PDF attachments. JSON or CSV out, no compute charge per run, just per result.

How it works

👁 How York CVS Scraper works

✨ Why use this scraper?

York CVS hosts its job board through hireful — a SaaS Applicant Tracking System with a Vue SPA front-end. Tracking who's hiring at York-area charities? Building a North Yorkshire voluntary-sector dashboard? Want a structured feed without firing up a headless browser?

• 🚀 No browser, no Playwright. We reverse-engineered hireful's SPA bundle and found the public JSON API: https://api.core-easywebats.com/v1/job/all. The only auth is the Origin header — the API maps Origin → company internally.
• ⚡ One HTTP call, full payload. The list endpoint returns EVERY job with EVERY field (title, salary, location, full description HTML, ISO closing date, region, contract type, hours, employer brand info, PDF attachments) — no per-job detail fetch needed.
• 🎯 Two starting points. The hireful API URL directly, or any yorkcvs.livevacancies.co.uk SPA URL (auto-redirected to the API).
• 🆔 Stable identifiers. Both job_number (sequential) and id (UUID) preserved per row.
• 🇬🇧 York / North Yorkshire focus. Social prescribers, support workers, project coordinators — charity-sector roles at York-area orgs.
• 📤 Clean exports. One row per vacancy with all fields inline. JSON + CSV exported automatically.

🎯 Use cases

📥 Supported inputs

Leave startUrls empty for the default.

Not supported: other hireful tenants (the actor is wired to York CVS's Origin specifically — drop us an email if you want a different tenant).

🔄 How it works

1. Send GET to https://api.core-easywebats.com/v1/job/all with:
   • Origin: https://yorkcvs.livevacancies.co.uk
   • Referer: https://yorkcvs.livevacancies.co.uk/
2. Parse the JSON array — every job is a complete record (no pagination, no detail fetch).
3. For each item, normalise into our standard JobRecord shape:
   • Concat description[].description blocks → single HTML body
   • Parse salary string → {currency, min, max, raw}
   • Extract apply email/URL from description body via regex
4. Push one row per job to the dataset.

⚙️ Input parameters

📊 Output overview

Each scraped vacancy is one single dataset row of type: "job". No detail-page enrichment needed — the hireful list endpoint is the data source AND the detail source.

🗂 Key output fields

❓ FAQ

Wait — no browser? How? The hireful SaaS bundles a Vue SPA that talks to a public JSON API. The bundle's URL-template strings revealed the API base (api.core-easywebats.com) and the list path (v1/job/all). The API authenticates by the request's Origin header — when we send Origin: https://yorkcvs.livevacancies.co.uk, it returns York CVS's jobs.

Why is companyName sometimes null? hireful doesn't enforce company_name in brand_info — it's an optional recruiter-side label. The description HTML almost always names the employer in the body. Use companyId (UUID) as the stable join key.

Could you scrape other hireful tenants? Yes — every {tenant}.livevacancies.co.uk site uses the same API + the same Origin-based auth. Drop us an email to wire up a different tenant.

Can I scrape private pages or applicant data? No. The actor only hits the public job-listing endpoint that any visitor's browser would fetch.

How do I limit results? Set maxItems. Currently only 1 vacancy is live; the cap mostly matters for tenants with high volumes.
