LinkedIn Jobs Search Scraper

UNOFFICIAL / NOT AFFILIATED: this Actor is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or approved by LinkedIn or Microsoft.

This is a bounded direct public LinkedIn Jobs search/data-retrieval Actor. It accepts one to five strict keywords and optional location search objects, requires acceptSourceRisk: true, and sends valid requests only to https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/search.

LinkedIn may block, change, remove, or gate the public source at any time. Buyers are responsible for making sure their use is authorized, lawful, and compliant with applicable terms and policies.

What It Does

• Uses unauthenticated transparent HTTP only through fetchPublicText.
• Uses the fixed source https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/search.
• Allows no arbitrary URLs, login, cookies, CAPTCHA solving, browser fingerprinting, proxies, alternate providers, private endpoints, retries, or escalation.
• Limits source response reads to 512 KiB, 8 seconds, and zero redirects.
• Stops all source access if Apify PPE returns chargedCount === 0 or eventChargeLimitReached.

Input

• acceptSourceRisk: must be true.
• searches: 1 to 5 unique search objects.
• keywords: required plain search phrase, not a URL.
• location: optional plain location phrase, not a URL.

Output

Each search returns at most 10 job rows. Rows include only this whitelist:

• query context: keywords, optional input location
• title
• companyName, when public in the search card
• jobLocation, when public in the search card
• postedTimeLabel
• public LinkedIn jobUrl with tracking parameters stripped
• sourceUrl
• checkedAt

The Actor excludes recruiter/person data, applicant data, contact fields, raw HTML, and job descriptions. Invalid inputs and blocked, login, non-OK, truncated, or unsupported-layout source responses produce structured error rows.

Pricing

Candidate local hypothesis only, not a live marketplace claim: checked-linkedin-jobs-search at $0.003 per valid source search, with a five-search run cap of $0.015.

The event is charged before each valid LinkedIn source fetch. If Apify returns chargedCount === 0 or eventChargeLimitReached, the Actor stops before making that source request.
