Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Make sure you selected the correct dataset (jobs or companies) and that maxItems is set to at least 1. If the site currently has no listings, the run will return an empty dataset.

Why did the run stop before reaching maxItems?

The scraper stops when it has collected all available listings on the site. If there are fewer listings than your maxItems value, you will get all of them.

Why are some fields empty in my results?

Some listings on 4dayweek.io may not have every field filled in, such as location or tags. Empty fields are normal and reflect missing data on the source page.

Can I get more fields than title, company, location, and tags?

The scraper returns only the fields available in the public feed. If you need additional data, you may need to scrape individual job pages with a different tool.

Why does the run take a long time?

The scraper respects the site's rate limits to avoid being blocked. If you set a very high maxItems, the run may take longer. You can reduce maxItems or run more frequently with smaller batches.
