Input and how to call it

A verified example input (it returned data on 2026-10-26):

{
  "opportunityTypes": [
    "internships"
  ],
  "workplaceTypes": [
    "wfh"
  ],
  "pay": "paid",
  "maxResultsPerSearch": 50
}

One HTTP call starts a run, waits for it and returns the records (token from console.apify.com):

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/data_daemon~unstop-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"opportunityTypes": ["internships"], "workplaceTypes": ["wfh"], "pay": "paid", "maxResultsPerSearch": 50}'

Python: ApifyClient(token).actor("data_daemon/unstop-scraper").call(run_input=...), full file python/unstop-scraper.py. Node.js: node/unstop-scraper.mjs. n8n: importable workflow. AI assistant (MCP): add the remote server https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=data_daemon/unstop-scraper with header Authorization: Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or VS Code and ask for the data in plain words.

All input fields

Field	Type	Meaning
`opportunityTypes`	array	Unstop listing types. Each type is one search; a listing is saved and charged once. On 26 Oct 2026 Unstop had about 710 open jobs, 570 internships, 670 competitions, 210 hackathons, 110 workshops, 75 quizzes and 5 scholarships.
`searchTerms`	array	Optional. Unstop matches them against listing titles and organisation names, e.g. `data analyst`, `marketing`, `software engineer`, `Reliance`. Each keyword runs once per type. Leave empty to get every open listing of the chosen types.
`workplaceTypes`	array	Only jobs and internships with these workplace types. Empty = any.
`timing`	string	Only full-time or only part-time jobs and internships.
`pay`	string	Mostly useful for internships: paid (with a stipend) or unpaid.
`eligibility`	string	Only listings open to this group, as set by the organiser.
`mode`	string	Only online or only in-person events.
`entryFee`	string	Only free or only paid-entry events.
`postedWithinDays`	integer	Only listings published on Unstop in the last N days (e.g. 1 for a daily feed, 7 for weekly). 0 or empty = any date.
`locations`	array	Only listings whose city, state or country contains one of these words, e.g. `Bangalore`, `Mumbai`, `Maharashtra`. `remote` matches work-from-home jobs. Listings without a location (many online events) are left out when this is set.
`includeDescription`	boolean	Full description as plain text (`description`) and HTML (`descriptionHtml`). It costs the same either way; turn it off for smaller files.
`maxResultsPerSearch`	integer	Cap for each type (and keyword). Newest listings come first. 0 = no cap: every open listing, about 2,350 across all types.
`maxResults`	integer	Stop after this many saved listings. 0 or empty = no total cap (the run's maximum cost still applies).
`onlyNewSinceLastRun`	boolean	For schedules: remember delivered listing ids (in a named key-value store in your account) and save only listings that earlier runs with the same settings did not deliver. Skipped listings are not charged.
`stateName`	string	Name of the only-new memory. Empty = derived from the types, keywords and filters. Give two schedules the same name to share one memory.
`skipIds`	array	Unstop listing ids you already have (the `id` field). They are neither saved nor charged.

Price

$0.0015 per opportunity ($1.50 per 1,000); $0.001 per run. List prices for Apify Free and Starter plans; Scale and Business plans pay 15% to 30% less.

Event	Price	Per 1,000	Charged when
Opportunity	$0.0015	$1.50	One Unstop listing saved to the dataset (job, internship, hackathon, competition, quiz, workshop or scholarship): id, URL, title, organiser, locations, workplace type, salary or stipend, eligibility, skills, registration dates and deadline, team size, entry fee, prizes, registration and view counts, and the full description (text + HTML). Skipped or filtered listings are never charged.
Actor Start	$0.001		Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event).

Worked example: the input above, capped at 50 opportunitys, costs at most $0.076. Apify's free plan includes $5 of usage a month, about 3,333 opportunitys; the Actor's own compute is included in the per-record price, and records skipped by filters, de-duplication or only-new mode are not charged.

Questions buyers ask

Is there an official Unstop API?

Unstop does not offer a documented public API. This Actor reads the public JSON endpoints (/api/public/opportunity/...) that the unstop.com website loads, which robots.txt allows. It exposes them as a REST API with schedules, webhooks and only-new runs.

Does it return closed listings?

No. It returns listings that are open for registration, which is what Unstop shows by default.

Does it include participants or applicant details?

No. It returns listing data only: the organiser, the role or event, deadlines and counts. No personal data about candidates or participants is collected.

Why does a salary show as empty?

The organiser chose not to disclose it. About 80% of jobs and internships show a salary or stipend.

Do I need a proxy or login?

No.
