Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## LinkedIn Scraper – Profile, Email & Company Data Extractor (No Cookies, No Login) **Scrape any LinkedIn profile or company page** by URL or username and get clean, structured data back – **name, email, phone, job title, work experience, education, skills, location, followers and 40+ fields**.

This actor uses a real Chrome TLS fingerprint with a crawler User-Agent ladder and reads the **structured data LinkedIn itself publishes** (JSON-LD + OpenGraph + visible sections). Emails & phones are then enriched **only from public sources** – the company website and (optionally) the Apollo.io database. Nothing is faked. ### ❓ FAQ **Can I scrape LinkedIn without logging in?** Yes. This actor reads only the public profile data LinkedIn serves to crawlers – no cookies or account needed, so there is nothing to get banned. **Can it get email addresses and phone numbers?** It returns **real business emails and phones** found on the company's own website, plus a deliverability (MX) check. For a person's **personal email/mobile**, add a free Apollo.io API key – LinkedIn never exposes personal contact info publicly to anyone. **Does it work for company pages too?** Yes – paste `company/` to get industry, size, HQ, website, founded date, specialties and employee count. **Can I scrape profiles in bulk?** Yes. Paste as many URLs/usernames as you like; results stream to the dataset. **What can I export?** CSV, JSON, Excel, XML, HTML, or pull via the Apify API and webhooks – ideal for CRM and lead-gen pipelines. **Is private/connection-only data available?** No. Private profiles, personal emails/mobiles, and exact connection counts are behind LinkedIn's login and are never returned from public data (use the Apollo key for personal contact where available). ### 💡 Great for LinkedIn **lead generation**, **recruiting & sourcing**, **B2B sales prospecting**, **talent mapping**, **market research**, and **CRM enrichment** with public professional data. --- > ⚖️ Use responsibly: scrape only public data, respect LinkedIn's Terms of Service, and run at > a reasonable rate. This tool does not access private or login-gated data. **Keywords:** linkedin scraper, linkedin profile scraper, linkedin email scraper, linkedin email finder, linkedin data extractor, scrape linkedin without login, linkedin company scraper, linkedin lead generation, b2b lead scraper, linkedin contact scraper, export linkedin to csv. # Actor input Schema ## `profiles` (type: `array`): One per line. Full URL (https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamhgates), just a username (williamhgates), or a company (company/microsoft). ## `enrichContact` (type: `boolean`): Search public web + GitHub for the person's REAL email/phone (via proxy rotation). Only data actually found in public sources is returned — never guessed. May be empty for many people. LinkedIn itself never exposes contact info. ## `apolloApiKey` (type: `string`): LinkedIn never exposes personal email/phone publicly. Paste a free Apollo.io API key and the actor matches each profile against Apollo's contact database to return the person's REAL personal email + mobile (where Apollo has it). Get a free key at apollo.io → Settings → API. Leave blank to use only free public-web enrichment. ## `githubToken` (type: `string`): A GitHub personal-access token raises the email-lookup rate limit (for developer profiles). Leave blank to skip. ## Actor input object example ```json { "profiles": [ "https://www.linkedin.com/in/satyanadella", "company/microsoft" ], "enrichContact": false } ```` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
