LinkedIn Decision Makers Scraper - CEOs, Founders & Executives

LinkedIn Decision Makers Scraper

Find decision makers on LinkedIn - CEOs, founders, CTOs, VPs, directors - by title, industry or company keywords, and location. Get clean, deduplicated profile rows ready for outreach.

What you get

One dataset row per person found:

Field	Content
Name	Full name (plus first/last split)
Headline	The profile's current role line
Role / Company	Parsed from the headline
Location	Location as shown on the profile
LinkedIn URL	Public profile link
Image	Profile picture (thumbnail)
Search title / keyword / location	Which of your inputs this profile matched
Field sources	Where each field came from (search card, headline, or identity resolution)

Inputs

• Decision maker titles - one search runs per title and the results merge. Example: CEO, Founder, CTO.
• Industry / company keywords (optional) - narrow to a niche or a company. Example: SaaS, Fintech, Stripe.
• Locations (optional) - one search per title runs per location. Common location names work directly; a numeric LinkedIn geo id targets any region. A name the actor does not recognize joins the search text instead. Empty defaults to the United States.
• Maximum profiles - stop after this many unique profiles (1-500).
• Search language - two-letter hint for the search pages.
• Deduplication - drop profiles already delivered by an earlier title search in the same run.

Good to know

• Steady pacing. One request at a time with a randomized pause between pages, and the run stops cleanly on any refusal or rate limit. Use a reasonable Maximum profiles value.
• Hidden profiles stay hidden. LinkedIn hides some members' names depending on network distance. Where the member can still be identified, the actor resolves the name automatically; genuinely anonymous cards are skipped - no tool can reveal them.
• About 1000 results per search. LinkedIn itself caps any single people search. To cover a bigger market, run several narrower searches (more titles or locations) and merge the exports.
• Maintenance. LinkedIn changes its internal endpoints from time to time. If a run stops with a "page shape changed" message, the actor needs an update - contact us through the Apify store page.
