Hi, we are working on a budget solution to solve the issue, it will be available in about a week or so. Please let us know how many profiles you estimate to scrape, and how urgent it is

Hi, thanks for getting back to me. This is urgent—we need all software engineers who studied at top-10 universities by next Wednesday (around 60k–100k profiles).

Hi. Well, I have a solution that works right now on my PC, but I haven't yet figured out how to provide it as $4 per 1000 because it requires more costs. Are you ok if I create a new Actor for this job $10 per 1000? Let me know if this is out of your budget, I could think of something.

There's a short profile version available for this kind of search that is cheaper but includes only linkedinUrl, firstName, lastName, summary, position, companyName, profilePicture, location. Is it enough, or do you need a full profile with experience, followers, etc?

I need the complete information (including full work experience, complete education details—degree and university—and current position). If that’s not possible (considering the high cost), a short profile version would be a good first step. Can I test these two actors? I only have their job titles and school names to use for the search.

I pushed a new private actor and shared it with you. It basically can scrape everyone on LinkedIn whose profile can be directly opened by a link by LinkedIn users (bypassing "LinkedIn Member" issue) It's only for some testing there, so I limited up to 20 results and it's slow, please don't overload.

I see you need full profile details. In the new actor details are the same as in this actor, full work experience, education details, let me know if something is missing, I will add.

I think Apify should send an email regarding the shared actor. Or you can share your email with me. We also have a Discord group for a quick communication https://discord.gg/TGA9k9u2gE

Thanks so much! I’ve tested it. Is it possible to include additional education details if a profile lists more than two degrees? Also, there’s an actor here that provides people’s LinkedIn email addresses—can we use that?

Lastly, regarding the 100‑page limit: I have a large Sales Navigator search with 60,000–130,000 leads. Could you help me create different queries to return all of them?

Here's a search example: https://www.linkedin.com/sales/search/people?savedSearchId=1909853121&sessionId=2lGiHDKdTiKlKbaEi%2F6yFw%3D%3D

Yes we can scrape more than 2 education details. With emails, it's a similar situation currently. I'm collaborating with another developer to create a scalable budget solution. It's possible to have a working version quickly, there's one relatively slow low-cost solution. I will calculate it with emails included. What's your budget for 100,000 profiles?

The link you shared leads to a saved search in your account (savedSearchId), which I won't be able to access. Please create a new search so the link will include search parameters. Basically, I would split the queries by major States or Cities under 2500 results, and then exclude them in the last query. I can add "exclude" option in the actor

Hi,

If you can provide this, I can discuss the cost with my team—I’d like to test it before making a decision. Being able to split the search into multiple Sales Navigator queries would help me measure all the data I’m scraping. Is it possible to use the search itself as input?

Here are the features I need: Search using a LinkedIn Sales Navigator query Filter for candidates with 3+ years of experience Option to include or exclude email addresses

Thanks!

Here’s the search link (contains 52k contacts).

Hi, it's all possible now. Please check the actor I shared with you. When it starts you will see in the log how many results found for the link, in your case it will log Total pages: 100. Total items: 52173.

It works faster. I changed the limit to 40.

It can find emails. Emails are validated via SMTP check, so they are either deliverable or the company domain accepts all addresses (in that case it will mark them as catchAll)
