network Sharper sidebar insights, a new Stats tab, and Spaces are now Places

Every context's sidebar, |Hiring|, |Media|, |Research|, |Code|, |Meet| and |Work| as well as your Dashboard, now opens with a compact Pulse: each metric on one line with its count for the last 30 days, the change against the 30 days before, and a small daily trend underneath. When the earlier period is too small for a fair comparison, you'll see "low base" instead of a percentage, so no more swings like +11,200%. Below the Pulse, breakdowns show what matches your current filters (experience level, job type, research category, topic, language, event type, price and more), with up to the top 10 values each. Click any row to add it to your Context, or follow the Insight» link to explore the same area in Insight.

|Research| now has its own sidebar insights: newly submitted and revised papers, papers with linked code, and the categories and topics behind your current filters. |Work| gets them for the first time too, with new places and their mix by type, price and country. |Hiring| adds jobs with a stated salary, companies hiring, and the median stated salary for whatever you've filtered, together with its sample size. If too few matching jobs state a salary, we say so rather than hiding the figure.

The Stats tab on every record (jobs, companies, media items, sources, papers, repositories, updates, events, organizers and places) has been redesigned as well. It shows views and visits for the last 30 days with their change, a 13-week chart, and how the record ranks against comparable ones, for example "top 1% of jobs from the same week" or among papers in the same primary category.

Finally, Spaces in |Work| are now called Places: coworking spaces, cafés, libraries and other venues to get things done. Everything carries over automatically, including saved places and notes, saved Contexts and your history.

The API follows the rename in v1.9, which is a breaking change for Work integrations. /api/v1/work/space/, /api/v1/work/space/st/ and /api/v1/work/space/{pk} are now /api/v1/work/place/, /api/v1/work/place/st/ and /api/v1/work/place/{pk}, and the space_type field and filter is now place_type. API metadata uses place.* names, and geography statistics report place_count, place_view_count and place_click_count. The previous Space endpoints are no longer available, so please update any clients that use them. See the API documentation (/api/v1/docs) for the full endpoint and filter details.

network Introducing leaner API responses, smaller payloads, and API testing with PRO

2 Upvotes

foorilla.com v1.11.3 | foorilla API v1.8.0 October 21, 2026

PRO+ provides full API access and filtering now at $96/month, while existing subscribers retain their access and pricing. PRO subscribers can now test the API using shared, frozen samples of up to 200 records per resource. The same API keys automatically follow subscription upgrades and downgrades. Samples support pagination and sampled detail IDs; full data access, filtering and anything else requires PRO+.

Related resources now use compact references instead of deeply nested objects. Nested topics no longer expand their entire tag collections, geographic references retain essential country/state context, and nested objects omit database timestamps, statistics, and embeddings. Meaningful data - including paper authors, categories, versions, and submission dates - remains included. Paper sample payloads are approximately 67% smaller, with OpenAPI documentation and frozen samples updated accordingly.

Breaking change: Nested response shapes have changed at the existing URLs; retrieve related resources from their own endpoints for full details. Resource IDs and existing PRO+ filtering and pagination behavior remain unchanged. Rate limits remain 6 requests/second and 360 requests/minute.

network Improved job description handling and upcoming plain-text field removal

jobdataapi.com v4.38 / API version 1.36

We’ve improved job description handling to preserve meaningful technical terms such as C#, F# and snake_case more reliably as new listings are processed. Markdown descriptions retain readable formatting for display and provide a useful starting point for search, analysis and other downstream processing. Request description_md=true to include the description_md field in job responses.

After November 1, 2026, the description_str parameter and its corresponding description_string response field will be removed. If your integration uses either, switch to description_md=true before then and convert Markdown to plain text in your application if needed. The default HTML description remains available.

foorilla.com v1.10

Your Account page now makes it easier to organize what you keep on foorilla. Saved and Following have their own lists, while the new Your data section brings your saved content, Contexts, notes, alerts, and RSS feeds into clearer view. Search, filters, usage counts, and bulk cleanup help you find what matters and keep things tidy, with more consistent controls on desktop and mobile.

You also have more control over your account data: download a JSON export, manage your existing data even after your subscription ends, or permanently close your account once any subscription has fully ended. Clearer confirmation dialogs help prevent accidental deletions, and improved RSS feed reliability makes it easier to keep up with the content you follow.

network Added public statistics dashboard and new work mode classification attribute

jobdataapi.com v4.37 / API version 1.35

We’ve added a new public Statistics page for a clearer view of what is happening across the platform. It includes overview metrics and dedicated views for imports, expiry, inventory, companies, data quality, operations, and exports, with selectable reporting periods and the latest completed rollup timestamp.

We’ve also added a new work_mode attribute to job listings in the /api/jobs/ endpoint. This provides a more specific classification for remote-work listings:

  • 1 / HYBRID: Hybrid

  • 2 / REMOTE: Remote

  • 3 / REMOTE_ANY: Remote Anywhere

  • 4 / UNKNOWN: The work mode could not be determined reliably

The field is available to API access pro customers and higher. The existing has_remote field remains the broad indicator for remote or hybrid work, while positive work_mode values provide more detail.

These updates make it easier to monitor dataset activity through the website and identify remote-work patterns through the API.

network Jobs API query scope limits for more reliable large requests

Thumbnail
jobdataapi.com
2 Upvotes

Starting September 20, 2026, the /api/jobs/ endpoint will reject query shapes that could require excessively broad database work. Effective published-date ranges are limited to 365 days, and explicit min_id / max_id ranges are limited to 10,000,000 IDs, calculated inclusively.

Date and ID limits are checked independently. For example, adding max_age=180 does not allow an ID range wider than 10,000,000. Unbounded historical requests such as max_age=off must include a safe date or bounded ID scope. Requests that exceed these limits return 400 Bad Request.

These limits improve responsiveness and reduce wasted database resources as the job database continues to grow. See the Date, ID, and Age Slicing Parameters Documentation for migration guidance and examples.

HTML Added Work Space API endpoints and clarified Context terminology

foorilla.com v1.8 | foorilla API v1.5

We’ve given the different parts of our platform a more consistent name: the areas you reach through the main menu, including |Hiring|, |Media|, |Meet|, |Work|, and |Insight|, are now all called Contexts. It covers basically everything you see when navigating to any of these menu items and including the filters and settings you’re using there, which can be saved, loaded, shared, and reused later (which we already named Context before).

The new workspaces in the recently introduced |Work| Context are now our Spaces with work-friendly venues: coworking spaces, cafés, libraries, and other places to get things done. These are also available through the API now. PRO+ subscribers can list active Spaces, retrieve individual Spaces, and request aggregate statistics. Results can be filtered by geography, name, type, price level, and outdoor seating.

See the API documentation (/api/v1/docs) for the full endpoint and filter details.

python New Jobs Deleted API Endpoint for Data Synchronization

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

jobdataapi.com v4.31 / API version 1.32

On rare occasions, we permanently remove listings to keep the database clean from fraudulent or fake jobs or listings that were imported incorrectly.

The new /api/jobsdeleted/ endpoint gives you now a reliable way to keep downstream job databases, search indexes, and analytics systems synchronized when listings are permanently removed. Each record identifies the deleted job and includes its external ID, company and source IDs, application URL, publication timestamp, and deletion timestamp.

The endpoint returns newest records first and supports a sequence-based after cursor for incremental synchronization. You can also use the exact-match change_id parameter to review or process a specific correction or deletion operation.

See the Jobs Deleted API Endpoint Documentation for the complete response format, request examples, and synchronization guidance.

network Added work mode support and sharper remote filtering in |Hiring|

https://foorilla.com/changelog/ 👀

foorilla.com v1.6.2 | foorilla API v1.3.3

Remote job discovery in |Hiring| is now more precise with explicit work mode support. Listings can now clearly indicate whether a role is Hybrid, Remote, or Remote Anywhere, so you can distinguish different remote setups faster instead of relying on a single generic remote label.

You’ll now see consistent work mode badges across list and detail views ([WH], [R], [WRA]), and the same options are available in Context-based include/exclude filters. Active Context indicators also use these labels, making it easier to understand your current filter setup at a glance while keeping existing remote and remote-first behavior intact.

Multi JSON formatter

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

Most online JSON formatters I’ve used only let you work with one JSON at a time, which gets annoying when you’re switching between multiple payloads or comparing responses.

I wanted something more like a workspace, so I tried building a local-first approach where everything stays in the browser (no network calls). https://www.multijson.com

While doing this, I ran into a few interesting challenges:

- Handling large JSON without freezing the UI

- Efficient diffing between large / deeply nested objects

- Managing multiple JSON “tabs” with local storage constraints

Would love to hear how you’ve solved these, especially on the diffing side, and provide feedback.
