Unlock Application Link

Get the real application_url for one job.

Most plans don't need this endpoint

Every plan except Solo MCP already gets application_url directly on GET /jobs and GET /jobs/:id. This endpoint only matters on plans where it's intentionally left out of search results.

GET

https://api.cleanjobdata.com/jobs/:id/apply

Path Parameters

idnumberRequired

The unique numeric identifier of the job (from a search result or GET /jobs/:id).

Example: 40652107

Monthly Quota (Solo MCP)

On the Solo MCP plan, unlocking a job's application link consumes one unit of a 1,000/month quota. Re-fetching the same job again within 24 hours is free; after that, unlocking it again counts as a new unlock.

First unlock

{

"job_id": "40652107",

"application_url": "https://stripe.com/jobs/listing/123",

"quota_charged": true,

"unlocks_used": 214,

"unlocks_limit": 1000

}

Re-fetching within 24 hours — free

{

"job_id": "40652107",

"application_url": "https://stripe.com/jobs/listing/123",

"quota_charged": false,

"unlocks_used": 214,

"unlocks_limit": 1000

}

Response Schema

job_idstring

Echoes the requested job id.

application_urlstring

The job's real application URL.

quota_chargedboolean

Whether this specific call consumed a unit of your monthly unlock quota. False if this job was already unlocked earlier this period, or if your plan doesn't have a quota at all.

unlocks_usednumber

Distinct jobs unlocked so far this billing period. Only present on plans with a quota.

unlocks_limitnumber

Your plan's monthly unlock quota. Only present on plans with a quota.

Quota Exceeded

Once you've used all 1,000 unlocks for the period, unlocking a new job returns a 403:

403 Forbidden

{ "error": "Monthly apply-link unlock limit of 1,000 reached for your plan." }

Jobs you unlocked within the last 24 hours are unaffected — you can keep re-fetching those for free.
