}About the mostaql.com API
The Mostaql API exposes 5 endpoints covering the Arabic freelance marketplace at mostaql.com, letting you retrieve paginated project listings, full project details (including budget range, duration, skills, and offer counts), and freelancer profiles with stats and bio. The get_project_details endpoint returns structured data on individual projects, while list_freelancers lets you search by skill or job title across Mostaql's freelancer base.
Project Data
The list_projects endpoint returns paginated project summaries — each object includes id, title, url, and post_time. You can narrow results using a keyword string, a category slug (e.g. development, ai-machine-learning, engineering-architecture), and a sort parameter accepting latest or most-offers. Use list_project_categories to retrieve all valid category slugs with their human-readable names before building filters.
Project Details
get_project_details accepts a numeric project_id from list results and returns the full project record: description, status, publication_date, budget_range, duration, skills array, owner info, and an offers field showing bids received. This is the primary endpoint for extracting structured budget and skills data per project.
Freelancer Data
list_freelancers returns paginated summaries with username, name, and title (professional headline). The optional query parameter filters by keyword, skill, or job title. For deeper data, pass a username to get_freelancer_profile to retrieve the full public profile: headline, bio, skills, and aggregated stats. The profile endpoint handles Mostaql's bot-protection layer automatically.
