# Jobs-database.de API

> Read-only HTTP API over job postings collected from employers' own applicant tracking systems.

Use these docs to call the Jobs-database.de job-data API. Base URL: https://api.jobs-database.de. Every /v1 request needs an X-API-Key header. Start with the quick start, then use the field reference and errors page. Usage is counted in jobs returned, not requests.
