Before You Start

No API key is needed for real data: with demoMode off, jobs come from LinkedIn's public job search. Session cookies are optional and switch on the logged-in crawl.

This actor runs in Demo Mode by default, so a default free run returns sample data (free, no key needed) to show you the output format. Set demoMode to false to fetch real data.

Quick Start

Test with Demo Mode (free, no API key needed)

{
  "demoMode": true,
  "searchQueries": [
    "marketing manager",
    "software engineer"
  ],
  "location": "United States"
}

Run with real data

{
  "demoMode": false,
  "searchQueries": [
    "marketing manager",
    "software engineer"
  ],
  "location": "United States",
  "remote": "ALL",
  "experienceLevel": "ALL",
  "datePosted": "PAST_WEEK",
  "maxJobs": 50,
  "useStealthMode": false,
  "firecrawlApiKey": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE",
  "sessionCookies": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE",
  "cookieKvStoreName": "cookie-sessions"
}

Input Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Required	Description
searchQueries	array	-	No	Job titles or keywords to search for
companyNames	array	-	No	Specific companies to monitor for job postings
location	string	-	No	Location filter (city, state, or country)
remote	string	"ALL"	No	Filter for remote work options
experienceLevel	string	"ALL"	No	Filter by experience level
datePosted	string	"PAST_WEEK"	No	Filter by posting date
maxJobs	integer	50	No	Maximum jobs to scrape
demoMode	boolean	true	No	Run with sample data
webhookUrl	string	-	No	Optional webhook URL to receive data as it's scraped
useStealthMode	boolean	false	No	Firecrawl does not support linkedin.com, so jobs are always read with the built-in public job search (browser TLS + residential proxy) or, with sessionCookies, the logged-in crawl. No Firecrawl key or credits needed
firecrawlApiKey	string	-	No	Not used: Firecrawl refuses linkedin.com. Kept so existing inputs still run
sessionCookies	string	-	Yes*	JSON array of cookies exported from Cookie-Editor browser extension. Required to bypass LinkedIn auth walls. Log into LinkedIn, export cookies, then paste the JSON here.
cookieStorageKey	string	-	No	Storage key from Cookie Manager actor (e.g., 'linkedin-john'). Loads cookies automatically — no manual paste needed. Run the Cookie Manager actor first to capture cookies.
cookieKvStoreName	string	"cookie-sessions"	No	Name of the Key-Value Store where Cookie Manager saved cookies. Default: 'cookie-sessions'

*Required when Demo Mode is off.

Pricing

This actor uses pay-per-event billing:

Event	When it is charged	Price
Actor start	Once when the run starts, one event per GB of memory (minimum one). At the default 4 GB of memory a run starts at $0.40	$0.10 per GB
Job Scraped	Per job listing scraped	$0.01
Result	Each item written to the default dataset	$0.00001

Demo mode is free -- no charges for sample data.

Troubleshooting

"API key is required"

You have Demo Mode turned off but didn't provide an API key. Either:

• Turn Demo Mode on to test with sample data
• Add your API key in the input

"API error 403" or "Unauthorized"

Your API key is invalid, expired, or doesn't have access to this specific API endpoint. Double-check your key and account permissions.

"API error 429" or "Rate limit"

Too many requests. Wait a minute and try again, or reduce the number of items per run.

No results or empty dataset

Check the run log for error messages. Common causes:

• Invalid input format (check the examples above)
• API key without proper permissions
• The target data doesn't exist or is too small to track

How do I test without an API key?

Enable Demo Mode in the input. This returns realistic sample data so you can verify the output format works for your workflow.
