## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Linktree Scraper 🔗

Turn any **Linktree** (or other link-in-bio) profile into structured data. Paste usernames or profile URLs and get, for each creator: **bio, every social profile (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Facebook, Spotify…), all their links, products and contact emails** — in one clean JSON/CSV/Excel export.

Built for **influencer marketing, creator outreach and lead generation.** No login, no browser, no copy-pasting from hundreds of pages.

***

### 🔑 What you get

For each profile:

- 👤 **Profile** — username, page title, bio, avatar, country, account tier, verified flag, categories.
- 🌐 **Social profiles** — a de-duplicated list of the creator's *official* socials (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Facebook, Spotify, Twitch, LinkedIn, and more) with the detected **handle** for each.
- 🔗 **Links** — every link on the page (title, URL, type) — content, products, campaigns.
- 🛒 **Websites** — the creator's own website/store links, separated out.
- 📧 **Emails** — contact emails found on the page (including Cloudflare-obfuscated ones), with an optional deeper pass that follows website links.

Perfect for building **influencer shortlists, cross-platform creator maps and outreach lists** — and a natural companion to a YouTube/Instagram discovery step: find creators there, resolve *all* their platforms and contacts here.

### 💡 Popular use cases

#### 🎯 Influencer marketing & outreach

Resolve a creator's *entire* presence from a single link-in-bio: every platform, their handles, their website and their contact email. Build outreach lists without hopping between apps.

#### 📇 Lead generation

Small businesses and solo founders put their contact links on Linktree. Extract websites and emails at scale for your CRM or cold-outreach pipeline.

#### 🕸️ Cross-platform creator mapping

Given a list of handles, map each creator across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Twitch and more — great for talent agencies and creator databases.

#### 📊 Market & audience research

Analyse what links, products and platforms creators in a niche promote — affiliate stores, merch, podcasts, newsletters.

#### 🤖 Data & AI products

Clean, structured link-in-bio data for enrichment pipelines, matching engines and AI agents — no HTML parsing required.

***

### 🎛️ Options

- **Profiles** — usernames or full profile URLs. Other link-in-bio URLs (about.me, bio.link) are accepted on a best-effort basis.
- **Extract Emails from Website Links** — follows each profile's website links and extracts emails (decodes Cloudflare-obfuscated ones). Slower but richer; leave off for the fast social + links data.
- **Max Items** — cap the number of profiles (0 = unlimited).

***

### ❓ FAQ

**Do I need an account or API key?**
No. Just add profiles and run.

**Can it discover creators by keyword?**
This Actor resolves profiles you provide (username/URL list). Pair it with a discovery Actor (e.g. a YouTube/Instagram scraper) to build the handle list first, then enrich here.

**Does every profile have an email?**
No — many creators use link-in-bio without exposing an email. When one is present (on the page or on a linked website with email enrichment on), it's extracted and cleaned of placeholders.

**Are content links counted as social profiles?**
No. `socialLinks` contains only the creator's official social profiles; content and product links live in `links`.

**What formats can I export?**
JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML table, RSS and via the Apify API. Connect to Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, webhooks or an MCP server.

***

### 🔌 Integrations

- Export to **JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, RSS**.
- Pull data via the **Apify API** or client libraries.
- Connect to **Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, Slack, webhooks** and more.
- Use it from an **MCP server** in your AI agent / LLM workflow.

### ⚖️ Legal & responsible use

This scraper collects **publicly available** profile information only — the same data any visitor sees on a public link-in-bio page without logging in.

You are responsible for how you use the collected data. Please:

- Respect Linktree's Terms of Service and applicable laws (including GDPR/CCPA).
- Use personal data (names, emails) lawfully and only for legitimate purposes; honour opt-outs.
- Scrape responsibly and avoid excessive request rates.

This tool is provided for lawful purposes such as marketing research, creator outreach and business intelligence. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Linktree.

# Actor input Schema

## `profiles` (type: `array`):

Linktree usernames or full profile URLs, one per line. Examples: 'selenagomez', 'https://linktr.ee/selenagomez'. Other link-in-bio URLs (about.me, bio.link) are also accepted on a best-effort basis.

## `enrichEmails` (type: `boolean`):

For each profile, follow its website/custom links and extract any email addresses found (decodes Cloudflare-obfuscated emails too). Adds requests, so it's slower — leave off for the fast social + links data.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of profiles to scrape. 0 = unlimited.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify Proxy (Datacenter) is enabled by default and works out of the box. Residential is not recommended (unnecessary per-GB cost).

```json
{
  "profiles": [
    "selenagomez"
  ],
  "enrichEmails": false,
  "maxItems": 0,
  "proxyConfiguration": {

    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
