# Changelog of Linkedin Post Search Scraper ($1.50/1000 results) (`api-ninja/linkedin-post-search-scraper`) Actor

- **URL**: https://apify.com/api-ninja/linkedin-post-search-scraper/changelog.md
- **Full Actor documentation**: https://apify.com/api-ninja/linkedin-post-search-scraper.md

### Unreleased

#### Fixed

- Remove redundant outer parentheses from search queries. For example, `("product launch" OR "product update")` becomes `"product launch" OR "product update"`. Meaningful Boolean groups, quoted phrases, and accented characters are preserved.
- Normalize curly double quotes and validate malformed query syntax before sending requests.
- Stop gracefully on invalid input and provider-rejected searches, with a clear run status message instead of repeated requests and a failed run.
- Preserve already saved posts when a later search page is rejected. Explain graceful stops in the run status message and logs, keeping the output focused on post results.
- Use exponential retry delays for temporary errors. Keep authentication and other operational errors visible as failures.

#### Documentation

- Expand Search query help and README with practical examples for topic monitoring, product research, and hiring searches, plus guidance on Boolean operators, exact phrases, grouping, and JSON input.
- Add this changelog for display in Apify Console.
