One call

Send the page URL and the recipe name to the Scrape API. The recipe brings the extract rules and the settings that work on PeoplePerHour (JavaScript rendering and the advanced proxy).

curl -G 'https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape' \
  -H "ApiKey: $UJEEBU_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode 'url=https://www.peopleperhour.com/freelance-jobs/writing-translation' \
  --data-urlencode 'recipe=peopleperhour'

import os, requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape",
    params={"url": "https://www.peopleperhour.com/freelance-jobs/writing-translation", "recipe": "peopleperhour"},
    headers={"ApiKey": os.environ["UJEEBU_API_KEY"]},
    timeout=120,
)
print(r.json()["result"])

const params = new URLSearchParams({
  url: "https://www.peopleperhour.com/freelance-jobs/writing-translation",
  recipe: "peopleperhour",
});
const res = await fetch(`https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape?${params}`, {
  headers: { ApiKey: process.env.UJEEBU_API_KEY },
});
console.log((await res.json()).result);

The answer is {"result": {...}} with the headers Ujb-Recipe and Ujb-Credits. Your own parameters always win over the recipe.
