jobTitle: Free-text role title used to match the request to a benchmark job.
jobDescription: Free-text role context used to improve benchmark matching, especially when the title alone is ambiguous or incomplete.
jobCode: Stable benchmark identifier for a Salary.com benchmark job. Use this when the client already knows the exact benchmark to retrieve or price.
country / state / city / zipCode: Geography inputs used to define the market scope for pricing and matching. The service normalizes the request to a supported geography in the response. For U.S. requests, zipCode takes priority when it is provided.
naicsCode: Optional industry filter used to narrow the market to a specific NAICS scope. The user may provide a 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, or 6-digit NAICS code, and the service will roll it up or normalize it to the industry scope used in the response.
companySize: Optional company-size filter used to narrow the market by FTE range or revenue range. The user may provide a free-input value, and the service maps it to the appropriate supported bucket.
payValue: Submitted compensation amount used by CompareToMarket. In the current version, payValue supports base-salary comparison only. The user may provide any pay value.
requestedCompensation: Optional JSON object used by getMarketRate to specify which Salary and Comp percentiles to return, and whether BonusTarget and LTI should be included. If omitted, the default response returns P25, P50, and P75.
Salary: Array of integer percentiles to return for salary data. Values must be multiples of 10, for example [10, 20, 30] except 25 and 75.
Comp: Array of integer percentiles to return for total-compensation data. Values must be multiples of 10, for example [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90].
BonusTarget: Boolean indicating whether bonus target data should be included.
LTI: Boolean indicating whether long-term incentive data should be included.
sessionId: Optional client or runtime tracking value when supported by the MCP implementation. It is useful for request tracing or client continuity, but it is not a compensation output field.
