About RolesAPI

The short version: RolesAPI turns Indeed job postings into one clean, normalized JSON object you can build on. This page covers what the service is, who runs it, how the data works, and how to reach us.

What RolesAPI is

RolesAPI is an independent REST API for Indeed job-postings data. It gives developers, AI agents, and spreadsheets a stable way to look up individual postings, search roles by keyword and location, and read disclosed salaries across 60+ Indeed country editions. Alongside the REST endpoints, it runs an MCP server so AI agents can use the same data with no custom tool code.

RolesAPI is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Indeed, Inc. Indeed is a registered trademark of Indeed, Inc. The full statement is on the trademark and affiliation page.

Who builds it

RolesAPI is built and operated by an independent developer team. It is not a product of Indeed, Inc. or of any job board. The same people who write the parsers and run the infrastructure also answer the support inbox, so questions about odd responses or missing fields go straight to someone who can fix them.

How the data works

Every answer from the API is the same normalized role object: job key, title, company, location, salary range, employment type, posted date, full description, and canonical URL, in one consistent JSON envelope from every endpoint. Data is retrieved live at request time from publicly available postings, so you see what is on Indeed right now rather than a stale snapshot.

Pricing follows the same one-answer logic. One credit buys one role lookup or one page of search results, and plans differ only in how many credits you get and how fast you can spend them. The details are on the pricing page, and every account starts with free credits and no card.

How to get in touch

Email support@rolesapi.com for support, sales, or trademark questions. If you are reporting an API issue, include the request_id from the response envelope so we can find the exact request. For integration questions, the quickstart and the API reference usually have the fastest answer.
