Visidarbi.lv Scraper

👁 visidarbi-lv-scraper

Scrape job listings from Visidarbi.lv — Latvia's largest job aggregator with 8,000–12,000 active listings collected daily from all major Latvian job portals. Filter by keyword and location. No API key required. HTTP-only — fast and cost-efficient.

Why this scraper?

🔄 Repost detection keeps your data clean

Job aggregators are especially prone to duplicate listings — the same vacancy appears from multiple source portals simultaneously. This scraper tracks jobs across runs using a 90-day index. The isRepost field flags duplicates, originalPublishDate shows when the vacancy first appeared, and originalUrl links to the first occurrence. Set skipReposts: true to filter them out entirely.

💰 Structured salary data — monthly and hourly

Visidarbi.lv aggregates salary information from all source portals in a consistent format. The scraper returns salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency (EUR), and salaryPeriod (MONTH or HOUR) as structured numeric fields — no regex parsing needed in your pipeline. Raw salary text (e.g. "1 200 - 1 800 (gross)") is also preserved in salaryText.

📄 Three description formats

When fetching the full job description, each listing is returned in three formats simultaneously:

🌍 Covers all of Latvia — including regional filters

Filter listings by any Latvian region or city: riga, daugavpils-and-region, vidzeme, zemgale, kurzeme, latgale, or use latvia to get nationwide results. International postings (Netherlands, Germany, Norway, Sweden) are available under abroad.

⏱️ Date filter removes stale listings automatically

Set daysOld to only retrieve vacancies posted within a specific window. Useful for daily feed pipelines — set daysOld: 1 and run on a schedule to get only fresh postings each day.

🔗 Custom start URLs for targeted crawling

Bypass the standard filters and provide any Visidarbi.lv search or category URL directly via startUrls. Useful for bookmarked searches, specific employer pages, or category URLs not covered by the keyword/location inputs.

💰 Pricing

$1.49 per 1,000 results — you only pay for successfully retrieved job listings. Failed retries and filtered reposts are never charged.

Flat-rate alternatives typically charge $29–$49/month regardless of usage. At 10,000 results/month, this scraper costs significantly less with no commitment.

Use the Max results cap in the input to control your spend exactly.

Performance

Set fetchDetails: false to skip the detail page fetch. This reduces run time by ~70% but omits descriptionHtml, descriptionText, descriptionMarkdown, summary, and contractType.

Known limitations

• Description: Only available when fetchDetails: true. Without it, descriptionHtml, descriptionText, and descriptionMarkdown are null.
• Salary: Not all employers publish salary information — salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency, and salaryPeriod will be null when unavailable. The raw salaryText is still captured when the value is displayed.
• External source: Visidarbi.lv aggregates from multiple Latvian portals (cv.lv, nva.gov.lv, ss.com, workingday.lv, etc.). The externalSource field identifies which portal the listing originates from, but the listing itself is hosted on Visidarbi.lv.
• Apply URL: Not included — Visidarbi.lv routes applications through the originating portal. Use url to navigate to the listing and follow the apply button from there.
• Languages: The scraper uses the English interface (/en/). Listing content (title, description) is in the original language of the posting (Latvian, Russian, or English depending on the employer).

• Pull results via API — every run writes a clean dataset you can fetch with one API call, ready for whatever you build on top of it.

Set it once and it runs on its own.
