LinkedIn Person Posts Scraper

Get the recent posts authored by a LinkedIn person by profile URL or public slug. Returns post content, engagement metrics (likes, comments, shares, reaction breakdowns), author info, images, videos, and articles.

Features

• Real-time LinkedIn data — results are fetched live at run time, never cached or stale
• No login, cookies, or proxy configuration needed — just provide the input and run
• Each result is pushed as a separate dataset item, exportable as JSON, CSV, or Excel
• Fast: a typical run finishes in seconds

Input

Field	Type	Required	Description
url	string	yes	LinkedIn profile URL or public slug, e.g. https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamhgates or williamhgates (max 500 characters)
page	integer	no	Page number, 1-5 (default: 1). 20 posts per page — returns up to ~100 of the person's most recent posts.

Pricing

This Actor is billed per run — a flat $0.006 per run.

• One run returns all matching results for your input, and costs $0.006 — whether it comes back with one result or hundreds.
• You’re only charged when a run succeeds. Failed runs are free.
