## FAQ

### What does the profile lookup by name return?

The LinkedIn profile lookup by name returns the matching profile URL with name, headline and photo. It returns no email addresses; pair it with your own email tool.

### What input does the profile lookup need?

The LinkedIn profile lookup takes a name or a LinkedIn profile URL, plus a company to narrow results. A company is highly recommended for common names.

### How do I run the profile lookup by name task from the API or a schedule?

The profile lookup by name task runs from the Apify Console, through the API, or on a schedule. Results export as JSON or CSV, so they open directly in Google Sheets or load into a CRM.

### What if the lookup finds no match?

The LinkedIn profile lookup starts with pattern 1, the strictest. If the company text differs from the page title, results can be empty; broaden the pattern or shorten the company name.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/b2bdata/linkedin-person-search.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
