LinkedIn Public Profile Scraper

Extract structured information from publicly accessible LinkedIn profile and company pages, with optional public post extraction including image and video URLs.

Pricing

This Actor uses Pay Per Event (PPE) monetization. Platform usage and proxies are included.

Event	Price
profile: one successfully scraped profile or company page	$0.004
post: one post saved to the dataset	$0.002
Actor start (once per run, per GB of memory)	$0.003

• Example: 10 company pages with 10 posts each = 10 × $0.004 + 100 × $0.002 + $0.003 = $0.243.
• With Only profile info turned on you pay only the profile event.
• Failed profiles (page not found, login wall, unreachable) are not charged.

    { "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/example/" }
  ],
  "maxProfiles": 10,
  "onlyProfileInfo": true
}

Profile with posts

{

    { "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/example/" }
  ],
  "onlyProfileInfo": false,
  "includeProfileInfo": true,
  "maxItems": 10
}

Output

Results are written to the default Apify Dataset and can be exported as JSON, CSV, XLSX, XML, or retrieved through the Apify API.

Example post item (with includeProfileInfo: true):

{
  "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/example/",
  "profileName": "Example Ltd",
  "profileTitle": "Retail",
  "profileDescription": "About the company...",
  "companyUrl": "https://www.example.com",
  "companySize": "10,001+ employees",
  "followersCount": 421226,
  "isProxyUsed": false,
  "postId": "7511379723784962048",
  "postUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/posts/example_activity-7511379723784962048-abcd",
  "postDate": "2026-10-01T11:01:20.837Z",
  "postText": "Post text...",
  "postLikes": 60,
  "postCommentsCount": 3,
  "imageUrl": "https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/...",
  "videoUrl": null,
  "isRepost": false,
  "repostInfo": null
}

Fields with no value are returned as null, so every item has the same shape. Media URLs are served by LinkedIn and may expire after some time.

Failed URLs are returned with status: "failed" and a note explaining why. They are not charged.

Proxy

The Actor supports Apify Proxy through the standard proxy input. For reliability, start with low concurrency and use a proxy configuration appropriate for your account and use case.
