Good to see this project, I will extract the full Upwork Ontology data (occupations and skills definitions) using the API and deliver it in a structured format (JSON or CSV), cleaned and ready for your use. On a similar extraction project, daily progress updates kept the client informed at every step. I will do the same here. Questions: 1) Do you need the full occupational taxonomy tree, or only specific categories? 2) What output format do you prefer: JSON, CSV, or both? Send me a message and we can go over the details. Best regards, Kamran

Your requirement is clear: extract the official occupation and skill definitions from Upwork’s Ontology through the API, since you do not currently have API access. I have the required authorized Upwork API access and can retrieve the ontology data without relying on browser-based scraping or unstable page parsing. I’ll first verify the available ontology resources and authentication, then map the occupation and skill endpoints, handle pagination, rate limits, retries, and nested relationships, and normalize the results into a clean dataset. I can provide the output as JSON and CSV, including IDs, names, descriptions, parent categories, and occupation/skill relationships where available. I’ll also include a small extraction script and clear usage notes so the process can be repeated when the ontology changes. I’ll validate the results for duplicate records, missing fields, and incomplete pagination before delivery. I can begin immediately and complete this focused extraction within 2 days. Should the final dataset include both the raw API response and a cleaned CSV version? Muhammad Saad

Warm Hello! Accessing and extracting official occupation and skill definitions from Upwork's Ontology requires working within Upwork's authorized APIs and usage policies. We are a team of 62 professionals with over 9 years of experience. We have extensive experience integrating third-party APIs, building secure data pipelines, and working with structured taxonomy data where official access is available. Here's how we can help: Verify the appropriate Upwork API or Ontology access method and its permissions Build a reliable solution to retrieve and structure occupation and skill definitions through authorized API access Deliver the data in your preferred format (JSON, CSV, Excel, or database) Create reusable scripts or API integrations for future updates if permitted Document the implementation and hand over the complete solution Before proceeding, we'd first confirm the available API scope and ensure the requested data can be accessed in compliance with Upwork's terms. If official API access is required, we'll advise on the most reliable approach.

Hi, This one's right up my alley. If Upwork hid it behind an API, that's basically their way of saying "please make me difficult." Luckily, difficult and impossible are distant cousins. I have experience working with APIs, reverse engineering undocumented endpoints, and large-scale data extraction projects. If the occupations and skills are available through the Upwork Ontology API, I can retrieve the complete dataset and structure it into JSON, CSV, or any format you prefer. I can also: * Extract the official occupation definitions. * Extract associated skills and relationships. * Preserve the original hierarchy and taxonomy. * Deliver clean, deduplicated datasets with documentation. * Build a reusable script if you'd like future updates. No API key? No problem—as long as there's legitimate API access available, I can work with existing credentials or approved access methods. Let's just say I've spent enough time arguing with APIs that they usually give up first. ? Looking forward to hearing more about the scope of the dataset you're after. Rawan

If you already have legitimate access to the Upwork Ontology API, I can help extract, structure, and deliver occupations and skills in a clean, reusable format. If API access is required, we'll need to use authorized credentials rather than unofficial methods. Do you already have an approved Ontology API token, or are you looking for guidance on obtaining access first? Please ping me to get started and deliver outstanding results Thanks!!!

Hello, As a result of a detailed review of your project requirements, I fully understand that you need the official Upwork occupation and skill definitions extracted directly from the Ontology API, not reconstructed from public profile pages or third-party sources. I have experience with API-based data extraction, JSON processing, taxonomy mapping, data validation, and delivering structured datasets in CSV, Excel, or JSON format. I can retrieve the occupation and skill records, preserve their identifiers and relationships, remove duplicates, and organize the final output for easy analysis or integration. In my opinion, the key challenge is ensuring the API access covers the complete ontology and that pagination, hierarchy, and linked occupation-skill relationships are captured without missing records. I have a couple of quick questions. • Which output format do you prefer: CSV, Excel, or JSON? • Do you need only definitions, or also IDs, categories, hierarchy, and occupation-skill mappings? I would be glad to discuss the API scope and can start immediately. Best regards, Carlos.

Hello, I can help with this project if you need someone who already has legitimate access to the required Upwork Ontology API. Before we proceed, I'd like to clarify one point: I will only use officially authorized API access and methods that comply with Upwork's Terms of Service. If your requirement is to retrieve the official occupation and skill definitions through a valid API, I can assist with fetching, processing, and exporting the data into the format you need. I have over 10 years of experience working with APIs, data extraction, and automation using Python, and I can deliver clean, well-structured results efficiently. Please let me know exactly which ontology data you need (occupations, skills, categories, or all of them), and we can discuss the best approach. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi, I can help extract Upwork occupation and skill ontology data into a clean structured dataset, provided the access is through an authorized API or approved data source. The best solution is to first confirm the available API access, authentication method, endpoint structure, required fields, and output format. I’ll then extract occupations, skills, IDs, categories, hierarchy, relationships, and definitions where available, and deliver the data in CSV, Excel, or JSON format. I’m comfortable with API-based data extraction, JSON parsing, Python scripting, structured data processing, duplicate checks, field validation, CSV/Excel exports, and documentation. Deliverables include: * Occupation data * Skill data * IDs and categories * Hierarchy/relationship mapping * Definitions where available * Clean CSV/Excel/JSON output * Validation and duplicate checks * Basic run notes I’ll work only with authorized API access and standard request handling, without bypassing platform restrictions.

Hello. I'm Davide, I'm here to help you. I understand you need Upwork ontology data for occupations and skills through an API-backed scraper. I'll build a Python scraper around FastAPI so the ontology endpoints are queried, normalized, and stored in PostgreSQL with retry handling, rate-limit protection, and clean mapping for occupations, skills, and annotations. If the ontology is behind authenticated API access, I'll wire in the session flow, inspect the network requests, and extract the same structured payloads directly rather than relying on brittle page scraping. Do you already have access to the ontology endpoint or any authenticated session/cookie that can be reused? I can start immediately and you can get good results within 2 days. Looking forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Davide

Hello. Your goal is to extract the official occupation and skill definitions from Upwork's Ontology. Right now, you need someone who already has an API key with the required Ontology access scope. Here is what I would do: Use my existing Upwork API key with "Ontology - Read Only Access" scope to query the ontologySkills endpoint , so you get the complete, official definitions. Extract all occupation and skill data via GraphQL queries, structured for your use case, so you have clean, usable data. Deliver the results in a structured format (CSV or JSON), so you can integrate or analyze them easily. One thing that catches most API data extraction requests: Upwork's API has a 40K daily request limit and strictly prohibits scraping outside approved endpoints . I structure queries efficiently so we stay within limits and remain fully compliant. I have an active Upwork API key with Ontology access and have extracted skill data for similar projects. I can share examples. I can start today, and my first step is understanding exactly which fields and categories you need from the Ontology before running the extraction. Would you prefer the output as a flat CSV with all skills mapped to categories, or a JSON structure preserving the full Ontology hierarchy?

Hi there ! Quick reality check first, because it saves you money: the Upwork Ontology lives behind their official GraphQL API, and access is granted per developer key for that developer's own app. Anyone pulling it on your behalf with their key is breaking Upwork's API terms - and a key that gets revoked stops working mid-project, so you would be back here in a week. The clean route is your own key. Upwork approves ontology access for legitimate uses, and the application is short. I will help you apply, then write the GraphQL queries that pull the full occupation and skill tree into clean CSV or JSON - categories, subcategories, skills, IDs, the lot. Same data, in your hands, and it keeps working because it is yours. Timeline : 4 days Budget : $150

Hello, "Upwork API Scraper – Fast Reliable Data Pull" – you need to collect job and freelancer data from Upwork via their API. I will write a Python script that authenticates with Upwork's OAuth2, queries the endpoints you need, and stores results in a clean CSV/JSON file. Using the requests library ensures fast, repeatable runs and easy error handling. For similar automation work I built a Python+Selenium script that backed up Reolink cloud video after an AI search, delivering reliable data extraction (https://www.freelancer.com/projects/automation/Automate-Reolink-Video-Backup-Script/reviews). What authentication flow does your Upwork app use – client‑credentials or authorization‑code? Looking forward to working with you. Artur Giżycki
