They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. - **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use). - **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`. - **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`. - **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`. - **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Lnk.Bio Profile Scraper Scrape **Lnk.Bio link-in-bio profiles** — the link-in-bio pages used by 1.5M+ creators on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. Given one or more usernames or profile URLs, this Actor extracts the **bio**, **avatar photo**, **verified badge**, **all links** (with their group/section labels and thumbnails), **social & contact profiles** (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, Spotify, website, …) and the **email address** when the profile publishes one. Works for any public profile, e.g. `https://lnk.bio/guggenheim` or just `guggenheim`. Runs on the Apify platform, so results are available via API, schedule, webhooks and integrations (Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets…). ### Why use Lnk.Bio Profile Scraper? - **Influencer & creator research** — collect bios, links and socials for outreach and sponsorship scouting. - **Brand monitoring** — track how competitors structure their link-in-bio pages (campaign links, group labels, CTAs). - **Lead generation** — harvest publicly published emails from creators' contact buttons. - **Portfolio & media kits** — quickly snapshot an artist's or actor's bio, avatar, press links and social profiles. - **No login required** — Lnk.Bio profiles are public; nothing needs an account or cookies. ### How to use Lnk.Bio Profile Scraper 1. Open the Actor in Apify Console (or call it via [API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2)). 2. In the **Input** tab, enter one Lnk.Bio username or full profile URL per line. 3. Optionally set **Max profiles** (0 = unlimited). Free users are capped at 10 profiles per run. 4. Click **Start**. Each profile becomes one row in the dataset. Example input: ```json { "profiles": ["guggenheim", "https://lnk.bio/thuymusic", "royalcaribbean"], "maxProfiles": 100 } ``` ### Input | Field | Type | Description | | -------------------- | ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `profiles` | string\[] (required) | Lnk.Bio usernames or full profile URLs, one per line. | | `maxProfiles` | integer | Maximum profiles to scrape. `0` = unlimited. Free users are capped at 10. | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | Optional proxy. Direct access works for small batches; enable residential/datacenter proxy for large or repeated runs. | ### Output One dataset record per profile: ```json { "url": "https://lnk.bio/thuymusic", "username": "thuymusic", "profileId": "-1146495", "displayName": "thủy", "verified": false, "bio": "Bay Area native recording artist and songwriter...", "avatarUrl": "https://cdn2.lnk.bi/profilepics/-1146495_...jpg", "instagramUrl": "https://www.instagram.com/thuymusic", "links": [ { "title": "Listen on Spotify", "url": "https://open.spotify.com/artist/...", "imageUrl": "https://cdn2.lnk.bi/uploads/...jpg", "linkId": "14042968", "group": "Music" } ], "socialProfiles": [ { "network": "SOCIAL_IG", "platform": "Instagram", "url": "https://www.instagram.com/thuymusic" }, { "network": "CONTACT_EM", "platform": "Email", "url": "info@thuymusic.com" } ], "email": ["info@thuymusic.com"], "scrapedAt": "2026-08-07T08:02:24.239Z" } ``` You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel. ### Data table | Field | Description | | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `username` | Profile username (without `@`). | | `displayName` | Custom display name, if set. | | `verified` | Whether Lnk.Bio shows a "Verified" badge. | | `bio` | Profile bio text. | | `avatarUrl` | Profile picture URL. | | `instagramUrl` | Link from the username badge (usually the Instagram profile). | | `links[]` | All bio links: `title`, `url`, `imageUrl` (thumbnail), `linkId`, `group` (section label such as "Music", "Press"). | | `socialProfiles[]` | Contact/social icons: `network` code (e.g. `SOCIAL_IG`, `MUSIC_SPO`, `CONTACT_WE`), `platform` name, `url`. | | `email[]` | Email address(es) published on the profile (including Cloudflare-protected ones). | | `error` | Present only for profiles that returned a 404 page or were blocked. | ### How much does it cost to scrape Lnk.Bio? Runs are billed on Apify compute units (CU). Lnk.Bio pages are small static HTML pages and are fetched with a lightweight **CheerioCrawler** (no browser), so a typical run of 100 profiles consumes well under 1 CU. Free Apify users get a preview of up to **10 profiles per run**; paid users can scrape unlimited profiles. To keep runs cheap, lower `maxConcurrency` or spread large lists across scheduled runs. If lnk.bio starts rate-limiting you (Cloudflare), enabling the Apify proxy in `proxyConfiguration` adds a small per-GB cost. ### Tips and advanced options - **Enter just the username** — the Actor normalizes it to `https://lnk.bio/` automatically. - **Links are deduplicated** — Lnk.Bio renders each link twice when it belongs to a group (once in the main list, once in the section); the Actor keeps one entry and preserves the group label. - **Multi-page accounts** — links from all sub-pages present on the main page are captured in one record. - **Emails** — Lnk.Bio sometimes obfuscates emails via Cloudflare's email protection; the Actor decodes those automatically. - **Missing/removed profiles** — unknown usernames soft-redirect to Lnk.Bio's 404 page; the Actor reports them with an `error` field instead of failing the run. ### FAQ, disclaimers and support - **Is scraping Lnk.Bio allowed?** Lnk.Bio publishes public profile pages and allows crawlers in `robots.txt`. Scrape responsibly, respect the site and the profiles' content rights, and do not republish personal data without permission. - **Known limitations** — very large runs (thousands of profiles) may trigger Cloudflare rate limiting; enable the proxy and add delays if that happens. - **Feedback** — open an issue in the Actor's Issues tab for problems or feature requests.
