Overview

Returns normalized detail for one job posting by its numeric id (the id field returned by tes-job-search): employer, location, salary, contract terms/types, dates, and application contact/URL, plus a short excerpt of the listing description rather than the full long-form HTML copy. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.

Infrastructure behavior

This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.

• Proxy strategy: managed automatically where needed
• Browser rendering: enabled for supported targets that require rendered HTML or JavaScript execution
• Browser cluster: supported dynamic workloads can be routed through distributed browser instances
• Retry behavior: automatic retry/fallback may be used depending on endpoint type
• Challenge handling: challenged pages or unusable upstream HTML are detected and surfaced clearly when they cannot be used
• Billing: credits are charged only for successful 2xx responses
• Observability: responses include request context where available

Response behavior

- An unknown or no-longer-listed job id returns `404`. - `description_excerpt` is plain text with HTML tags stripped and truncated to roughly 600 characters, not the full listing copy. - `employer_url`'s trailing numeric id (e.g. `1039424` in `.../jobs/employer/epsom-college-1039424`) is the `id` [tes-job-employer](tes-job-employer.md) accepts. - `employer_logo_url` and `employer_header_url` are empty when the employer hasn't uploaded that image. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "id": "2340998", "title": "Minibus Driver", "url": "https://www.tes.com/jobs/vacancy/minibus-driver-epsom-2340998", "employer": "Epsom College", "employer_url": "https://www.tes.com/jobs/employer/epsom-college-1039424", "employer_website": "http://www.epsomcollege.org.uk", "employer_logo_url": "https://l.imgt.es/employer-assets/employers/1039424/brandimages/20181030_1126AM_desktop_1039424_logo.jpg", "employer_header_url": "https://l.imgt.es/employer-assets/employers/1039424/brandimages/20160908_1226PM_desktop_1039424_header.jpg", "location": "Epsom", "salary": "£11,956 per year", "contract_terms": ["Permanent"], "contract_types": ["Part Time"], "description_excerpt": "Epsom College is an independent co educational day and boarding school with approximately 1100 pupils...", "posted_date": "2026-08-31T23:00:00.000Z", "closing_date": "2026-09-29T23:00:00.000Z", "application_url": "https://www.epsomcollege.org.uk/vacancies/minibus-driver/", "application_email": "hr.recruitment@epsomcollege.org.uk", "quick_apply": false } } ```

Error behavior

Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.

When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
