Added plain-text field for cleaned job description

jobdataapi.com v4.1 / API version 1.6

0 min read · July 23, 2024

A field description_string with a corresponding query parameter description_str=true has been added to the /api/jobs/ endpoint to offer a cleaned version of the job description without any HTML tags or other non-informational/textual content in it.

This version of a job description has already been used internally for all meta data processing and enrichment and is now finally being exposed through the API as well. It might be particularly useful for saving cleaning steps in your data pipeline for further processing (e.g. text analysis, NLP, model training, etc.).

The description_string field is available without restrictions through the API (currently not included in CSV downloads) and included in all subscription plans.
