Glassdoor API — job postings without the closed data deals
Glassdoor's salary and review datasets are sold through separate partnership deals, and its job listings have no self-serve API either. This page covers what RankFabrik's Jobs API does return from Glassdoor's public postings — and, just as important, what it does not claim to replace.
Prices verified 17 August 2026.
Title, company, location, salary when published
Glassdoor's own salary database & employee reviews
Pay per posting returned — empty runs cost nothing
What this is, and what it isn't
RankFabrik's Jobs API reads Glassdoor's public, logged-out job listing pages and returns the same
posting shape used across this silo — title, company, location, salary, url, published
plus the company link. It does not attempt to reproduce Glassdoor's separate salary-estimate
database or its employee-review product; those are a different dataset behind a different, closed
deal. Salary here is what the posting itself published, or null — never estimated.
The fill rate, before you pay
Job postings across every source in this silo carry a salary far less often than developers expect — Glassdoor's are no exception. The completeness block in every response reports the real rate for your search rather than letting you assume:
18% on salary is a real number from a mixed-role sweep, not a floor — some queries run higher,
some lower, and you read the figure for your own query from completeness, not from
this page.
Pricing, in plain units
job — posting
job-complete — posting + company
Pay per posting returned — you are charged only for events the actor actually returns, never for an empty run. Metered and billed by Apify; no separate RankFabrik account to open.

Questions
Does Glassdoor have a public API?
Glassdoor does not run a self-serve API for pulling job listings or company data — its own data products (salaries, reviews) are sold separately through partnership deals, not opened to individual developers. A collection API is the practical alternative for the job-listing side of that data.
What data can I get from a Glassdoor jobs API alternative?
The same posting shape as the rest of this silo — title, company, location, salary when published, and a direct link — read from Glassdoor's public, logged-out listing pages. This is job-posting data, not Glassdoor's separate salary-database or employee-review product, which RankFabrik does not claim to replicate.
Is scraping Glassdoor legal?
Scraping public web pages sits in a legal gray area rather than a clean yes/no — courts and platforms have taken different positions over the years. What RankFabrik does is narrower than the general question: it reads pages that are publicly visible without logging in, does not bypass a login wall, CAPTCHA or other access control, and routes requests through a managed proxy layer to handle rate-limiting rather than to evade detection. That describes the collection method — it is not legal advice, and you remain responsible for how you use the data (re-publishing personal information, respecting a platform's terms of service, and your own jurisdiction's rules).
What are some free APIs for job listings?
A few national job boards and labor agencies publish small free endpoints, but none combine Glassdoor-sourced postings with Indeed and LinkedIn under one shape. RankFabrik's pay-per-event pricing ($2.50–$4.00 per 1,000) is the trade-off for that coverage — nothing charged on an empty run.
