Query Parameters
title*string
The job title to price. Spaces are accepted and hyphenated for you, so software engineer and software-engineer are the same request.
location?string
Optional city/state to scope the aggregates to. Usually unnecessary: a national call already carries a per-region breakdown for all 51 US regions in regions, so asking for one state costs a request and returns less.
