LinkedIn Profiles Scraper

LinkedIn Profiles Scraper is a fast, cost-efficient actor for finding public LinkedIn profile URLs from search keywords. It is designed for teams that need clean lead lists quickly: names, profile IDs, LinkedIn URLs, headlines, current title/company when available, and short public descriptions.

This actor is especially useful when you need high-volume LinkedIn profile discovery without slow deep enrichment. It focuses on the fields that matter most for prospecting and routing, making it cheaper and faster than heavier LinkedIn profile scrapers.

LinkedIn Domain

Use domain to choose which LinkedIn domain the actor should target:

• linkedin.com for broad discovery across any LinkedIn domain, including localized subdomains.
• www.linkedin.com for main global profile discovery only.
• Localized country-code domains such as us.linkedin.com, uk.linkedin.com, es.linkedin.com, fr.linkedin.com, de.linkedin.com, ca.linkedin.com, au.linkedin.com, or in.linkedin.com for country-focused discovery.

The actor includes a dropdown with Any LinkedIn domain (linkedin.com), Global main site (www.linkedin.com), and all validated LinkedIn country-code domains. Localized options are labeled with the country or territory name plus the exact domain, for example Spain (es.linkedin.com) or United States (us.linkedin.com).

Example Input

{
  "query": "software engineer fintech san francisco",
  "domain": "linkedin.com",
  "maxItems": 100
}

For a localized search, select one of the country domains:

{
  "query": "founder fintech madrid",
  "domain": "es.linkedin.com",
  "maxItems": 100
}

Output

Each dataset item contains a public LinkedIn profile URL and structured fields derived from publicly visible discovery data.

{
  "id": "alex-morgan-123456",
  "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-morgan-123456",
  "name": "Alex Morgan",
  "headline": "Software Engineer at Stripe",
  "currentTitle": "Software Engineer",
  "currentCompany": "Stripe",
  "description": "Software engineer with experience building scalable payment systems and developer tools..."
}

Output Fields

• id: LinkedIn profile identifier from the profile URL.
• url: Canonical public LinkedIn profile URL.
• name: Person name parsed from the profile title.
• headline: Public headline or title text when available.
• currentTitle: Parsed role when the headline clearly contains a pattern such as Title at Company or Title @ Company.
• currentCompany: Parsed company when the headline clearly contains a company pattern.

Tips For Better Results

• Use role plus context: account executive cybersecurity, machine learning engineer healthcare, founder ai agents.
• Add geography when relevant: product manager berlin, recruiter new york, founder singapore fintech.
• Use the LinkedIn domain dropdown for country-specific discovery. Choose linkedin.com for broad results across any LinkedIn domain, www.linkedin.com for main global results only, or a localized domain such as es.linkedin.com, fr.linkedin.com, de.linkedin.com, ca.linkedin.com, uk.linkedin.com, au.linkedin.com, or in.linkedin.com when the target market matters.
• Run multiple focused queries instead of one very broad query for cleaner segmentation.
• Increase maxItems when mapping larger markets or building broader lead lists, or set it to 0 to keep collecting until results run out.
