APIs, open data and open source code
This page contains information about how you can access Arbetsförmedlingen’s open data, APIs and open source code. Our open data, open APIs and open source code is free for anyone to use.
Open data, open source code and APIs help developers, journalists, researchers and our partners to analyse and build digital services – which in turn benefits society and is of value to the general public.
Open data and APIs
Arbetsförmedlingen’s open data is accessible in our data portal and is also searchable on Sweden's national data portal (dataportal.se). Arbetsförmedlingen publishes, among other things, job advertisements, historical and real-time data, labour market forecasts, labour market training as well as occupations and skills as open data. In our data portal you will also find our APIs.

Partner APIs
Partner APIs are accessible to Arbetsförmedlingen's partners, i.e. other authorities or private actors with whom Arbetsförmedlingen cooperates. Common to these APIs is that they require authentication.
At the moment, we do not have an API portal for partner APIs. Until we get one in place, please contact your existing contact person at Arbetsförmedlingen if you need access to a partner API, or send an email to support@arbetsformedlingen.se. Please put "API" in the subject line.
Open source code
Open source code or open software often refers to computer programs whose source code is available for anyone to use, read, modify and redistribute.
Several systems from Arbetsförmedlingen are found on a developer platform for open source code - Gitlab. The source code is tagged with an open approved license which is the requirement to achieve the designation open source.
