How to Use

Run the actor on the Apify platform. You primarily control it via the input configuration, which defines what to scrape.

Basic Input Configuration:

{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://himalayas.app/jobs?skills=python"
    },
    {
      "url": "https://himalayas.app/companies"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 100
}

• startUrls: Provide one or more Himalayas URLs. Use job search URLs, company directory pages, or specific company/job pages.
• maxItems: (Optional) Limit the total number of items to scrape.

The actor will crawl from the provided URLs, extracting all relevant jobs and company details it encounters.
