What format is the data returned in?

Responses are JSON. Each one contains the extracted data plus a _metadata block with the request ID and execution time.

What are the rate limits for the Monster Job Details API?

Up to 60 requests per minute, 1,000 per hour and 10,000 per day. Contact us if you need higher limits.

Can I run long requests in the background?

Yes. Add ?async=true to receive a job_id immediately, then poll /api/v1/jobs/ / until the status is COMPLETED.

Can I send a large list of requests at once?

Yes. Upload a CSV file with one request per row and the Monster Job Details API runs them in the background within 24 hours, at 50% of the normal price for each successful row. Use "Upload file" in the Playground or add ?batch=true to the API call.

Do I need to manage proxies or browsers?

No. DataGuru runs the infrastructure, proxies and retries. You only send an HTTP request with your API key.
