Indeed Jobs API
Our Indeed Jobs API allows you to scrape job search results from Indeed. Each job posting contains a title, company, location, salary, job type, posting date, and more data. The job Indeed opens in the detail pane (the first result) includes a full description, street address, gps_coordinates and apply_link.
Company information is also provided for each listing, such as its overall rating and number of reviews. Salary information can include a minimum, maximum, and schedule.
The API endpoint is https://serpapi.com/search?engine=indeed_jobs
Head to the playground for a live and interactive demo.
Note on pagination
Indeed requires signing in to see more than one page of results, so the Indeed Jobs API returns a single page of results and does not support result offsets.
Each search returns that page: up to 15 organic job postings, plus the sponsored postings and job carousels Indeed inserts between them, flagged with sponsored: true (and group for carousel items).
API parameters
Geographic location
Advanced filters
jt
Optional
Parameter defines the job type to filter results by. fulltime - Full-timeparttime - Part-timecontract - Contracttemporary - Temporaryinternship - Internship
SerpApi parameters
no_cache
Optional
Parameter will force SerpApi to fetch the Indeed Jobs results even if a cached version is already present. A cache is served only if the query and all parameters are exactly the same. Cache expires after 1h. Cached searches are free, and are not counted towards your searches per month. It can be set to false (default) to allow results from the cache, or true to disallow results from the cache. no_cache and async parameters should not be used together.
async
Optional
Parameter defines the way you want to submit your search to SerpApi. It can be set to false (default) to open an HTTP connection and keep it open until you got your search results, or true to just submit your search to SerpApi and retrieve them later. In this case, you'll need to use our Searches Archive API to retrieve your results. async and no_cache parameters should not be used together. async should not be used on accounts with Ludicrous Speed enabled.
zero_trace
Optional
Enterprise only. Parameter enables ZeroTrace mode. It can be set to false (default) or true. Enable this mode to skip storing search parameters, search files, and search metadata on our servers. This may make debugging more difficult.
output
Optional
Parameter defines the format of the result. It can be set to json (default) to get a structured JSON of the results, html to get the raw HTML retrieved, or md to get a Markdown-formatted version optimized for LLMs and AI agents.
json_restrictor
Optional
Parameter defines the fields you want to include in the output, reducing payload size for faster response. See the JSON Restrictor documentation for more details.
API results
JSON results
JSON output includes structured data for jobs_results - job postings with salaries, job types and benefits, and related_searches.
A search status is accessible through search_metadata.status.
It flows this way: Processing -> Success || Error.
If a search has failed, error will contain an error message.
search_metadata.id is the search ID inside SerpApi.
HTML results
HTML output is useful to debug JSON results or support features not yet supported by SerpApi. It gives you the raw HTML results from Indeed Jobs.
Markdown results
Markdown output is optimized for LLMs and AI agents. It provides a curated view of the JSON results
in a token-efficient format using tables, markdown links, and YAML frontmatter.
To access, use the output=md parameter, the /search.md endpoint, or request header Accept: text/markdown.
