when i enter a keyword (Tilores or Ziegert), the actor does not find it. when I enter the same keyword into the LinkedIn interface, LinkedIn filters by the keyword

Could you please join a link to a run where the keywords were ignored?

The keyword is Tilores

linkedIn picks it up in the interface, the actor doesn’t return anything.

This is strange because the input tab doesn't show any keyword. It isn't an issue with the actor for sure. If you used the JSON editor to set the keywords, make sure the property was named keywords (with an s) and not keyword. e.g. : { "keywords": "Tilores" }

I could not make that work. The interface collected or showed no results. The log said one result was scraped, and is at https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/KUXcFm6nQEC6lZNuk/items?format=json

When I open the file, it has some random results, not the Tillers company.

Log says there is a result No result is shown in the Spiffy interface When I pick up the results from the location, they’re strange.

This is because of how Apify works:

  • If you specify a named dataset (TiloresLinkedIn here), Apify is going to append the results of every scraping at the end of the existing dataset
  • Also if you specify a named dataset, the interface storage will show 0 result because the interface only shows the default (unnamed) dataset

Suggestions:

  • Use a different (new) dataset name
  • Do not set the dataset name to use the default dataset instead
