Open one XING job posting from its /jobs/ link and get the description, company, location, salary range, employment type, apply link and closing date. Profile links are not accepted here, and the posting does not confirm hiring or the final salary.

Price $1.39 per 1,000 requests ($0.001389 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.

AI prompt

Paste this into your AI assistant. It already holds this endpoint's parameters, response fields and an example request, so the assistant can ask what you need and then write the scraper.

Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra Xing Job details endpoint (xing/job_detail).

Endpoint contract:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to xing and action to job_detail, and put the parameters inside params.
- Required parameters:
  - url: Specifies the target XING URL. The job_detail action requires a /jobs/ link, while the profile action requires a /profile/ link; these object types cannot be used interchangeably.
- Returns one object. Main fields: id, url, title, company, company_url, location, country, salary_min, salary_max, salary_median, salary_currency, employment_type; 24 fields in total, full list at https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social/catalog?platform=xing.
- Example request body:
{
  "platform": "xing",
  "action": "job_detail",
  "params": {
    "url": "https://www.xing.com/pages/sap"
  }
}
- Price: $1.39 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- For dozens or hundreds of targets, add "mode": "async" to the body: you get a job_id at once and poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} for the result.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.

Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.

titleTitle. null when the platform has no titles (for example text-only posts).

Errors and billing

401
Missing or invalid key. Authentication runs before parameter checks, so unauthenticated requests never see the parameter schema.
422
Wrong parameter name or value. The error lists the parameters and allowed values this capability accepts and the closest match; it happens before any charge.
402
Insufficient balance. Top up first.
429
The account's per-minute request limit was reached (all of its API keys count together; a key's own lower limit applies first). Wait for Retry-After and try again; a rate package in the console raises the limit.
503
Could not complete right now. Any charge for the call goes back to your balance automatically, and the billing receipt in the response states the actual outcome, including when it is not yet known. Do not resend blindly.
200 empty
The request completed without data and is not charged (billing.reason = empty_result_refunded).
