How it works

1. Enter one or more URLs, names, or usernames in the input form.
2. The Actor validates and deduplicates your input.
3. A maintained no-cookie source Actor collects the live public data.
4. Results are normalized into consistent fields and duplicate records are removed.
5. Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS, or connect it to your workflow through the Apify API.

Pricing and cost control

This Actor uses pay-per-result pricing. You are charged for unique records saved to this Actor's dataset. Store discounts are applied automatically by Apify for higher subscription tiers.

The advanced source cost limit is automatically calculated from your requested item limits. Set sourceMaxTotalChargeUsd only when you need a stricter custom cap. A source run can still return zero records when a URL is invalid, private, removed, or has no matching public content.

Reliability notes

• No LinkedIn or Instagram cookie is requested from you.
• Duplicate inputs and duplicate result records are removed.
• Invalid URLs fail early with a clear message.
• The raw source item is retained so downstream integrations do not lose uncommon fields.
• Public platform pages and schemas can change. Failed source runs are surfaced with their run ID for debugging.

Responsible use

Only collect publicly available data that you are legally permitted to process. Follow applicable privacy, data protection, anti-spam, copyright, and platform rules. Do not use this Actor for harassment, unlawful profiling, credential collection, or abusive automation.
