# Get Full Work History from LinkedIn Profile URLs

**Use case:** 

Paste profile URLs or handles and get each person's full career: every position with company and dates, education, certifications, skills and the about text, from a profile database with no cookies or login. Unmatched profiles are free not_found rows. Coming from another profile scraper? Its urls or publicIdentifiers input runs here unchanged. The examples are public executives.

## Input

```json
{
  "profileUrls": [
    "satyanadella",
    "https://www.linkedin.com/in/reidhoffman"
  ],
  "contacts": false,
  "compact": false
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "fullName": {
    "label": "Name",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "jobTitle": {
    "label": "Job title",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "companyName": {
    "label": "Company",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "experience": {
    "label": "Positions",
    "format": "object"
  },
  "education": {
    "label": "Education",
    "format": "array"
  },
  "certifications": {
    "label": "Certifications",
    "format": "array"
  },
  "skills": {
    "label": "Skills",
    "format": "array"
  },
  "about": {
    "label": "About",
    "format": "string"
  }
}
```

## FAQ

### What does the work history task return for each profile?

The work history task returns every position on the profile with company and dates, education, certifications, skills and the about text, plus name, current title, company and location.

### Does the work history task need cookies or a LinkedIn account?

The work history task reads a professional profile database, so it needs no cookies, login or browser session, and it never opens the profiles themselves.

### Can I reuse an input from another profile scraper?

The work history task also reads the list as urls, as plain strings or { url } objects, or as publicIdentifiers, so an input saved for another profile scraper runs without changes.

### Can I add emails and phones to the profiles?

Switch on contacts in the work history task to add recorded emails, phones and social links. People with nothing reachable ship at the plain profile price; see the Actor's Pricing tab.

## 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/b2bsearch/profile-lookup.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`).
