Actor ignores profile input and returns unrelated data (e.g. Satya Nadella)

Hi, I'm reporting a critical issue with this actor.

I passed valid LinkedIn profile URLs (e.g. https://www.linkedin.com/in/hinocode/) via API, but the actor ignored them and consistently returned posts from Satya Nadella’s profile instead.

This happened on multiple runs and cost me over $17 for incorrect, unusable data.

There was no error or warning — the actor responded successfully and charged based on the unrelated dataset returned. This is unacceptable behavior, especially for a billed actor.

The actor description claims it supports scraping from any LinkedIn profile. That is misleading and should be corrected if dynamic input is unsupported or restricted.

Apify support told me to raise this issue here. Please review and confirm so I can proceed with a refund request.

Thanks, Kelly

Hi Kelly, You did not run the actor from apify website and you did send the wrong parameters. There is no issue on the actor side. The actor runs with default input if none is provided as in your case. your input is : { "input": { "profile": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/hinocode/", "resultLimit": 5 }, "username": "satyanadella", "page_number": 1, "limit": 100 }

your input parameters are totally wrong. I don't even know how you got such field names (input, profile,resultLimit) that are not on the actor at all. If you had run it from apify's website, input should simply be: { "username": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/hinocode/", "page_number": 1, "limit": 100 }

Run for your input with normal parameters: https://console.apify.com/view/runs/WOql11xSJXKyNUht5
