LinkedIn Jobs Scraper

Collect structured job listings for monitoring, research, and analysis. Search by keyword, browse openings from one company, or fetch known job IDs. Optional enrichment adds descriptions, complete published criteria, compensation context, benefits, application details, recruiter information, and related roles.

Quick start

Choose exactly one primary input: keywords, companyId, or jobIds. After the run finishes, open the default Dataset to view or export one item per job.

Search by keyword

{
  "keywords": "software engineer",
  "location": "Stockholm",
  "maxJobs": 25
}

Search with filters

{
  "keywords": "data scientist",
  "location": "United States",
  "maxJobs": 100,
  "jobType": ["full_time"],
  "experienceLevel": ["mid_senior", "director"],
  "workType": ["remote"],
  "datePosted": "past_week",
  "sortBy": "recent"
}

Browse jobs from one company

{
  "companyId": "1441",
  "maxJobs": 50
}

The companyId field is included in enriched job output. You can use that value in a later company search.

Fetch known job IDs

{
  "jobIds": ["4318512219", "4405220132"]
}

Job ID mode includes full details. You can reuse jobId values returned by earlier runs. Repeated job IDs are fetched once, and results follow the first occurrence of each requested ID. includeSimilar and maxSimilarJobs still apply. Search filters, location, maxJobs, sortBy, and fetchDetails do not change direct job ID lookups because those jobs always include full details.

Add details and related jobs

{
  "keywords": "software engineer",
  "location": "Stockholm",
  "maxJobs": 10,
  "fetchDetails": true,
  "includeSimilar": true,
  "maxSimilarJobs": 5
}

Output

Each dataset item represents one job. Search fields are always present. Most detail fields are null when detail enrichment is disabled or the listing does not publish that value. In search-only results, applicationMethod is unknown and hasDirectApply is false because job details were not fetched.

This example came from a live Actor run on 2026-07-29 with the following input:

{
  "keywords": "software engineer",
  "maxJobs": 1,
  "salary": "40000",
  "datePosted": "past_24h",
  "sortBy": "recent",
  "easyApplyOnly": true,
  "fetchDetails": true
}

The output below uses the values returned by that run unchanged. Long text, media, related data, selected IDs, and compatibility aliases are omitted for readability.

Important field semantics

Field	Meaning
position	Position on the returned search page. It is not a global rank and can repeat across pages.
badge	The complete display label shown with a search card. hiringSignal is actively_hiring, early_applicant, or null for recognized badge labels; benefitsSummary preserves the full label for recognized benefit labels.
criteria	Every published job-criteria label and value. The four convenience fields can be null when a listing uses different labels.
applicants	Published display text. applicantsCategory is over_200, first_25, or null; exact numeric counts remain in applicants.
salary	Pay text shown in a search result. Detailed pay information, when published, is returned in the compensation* fields.
compensation*	Published display text and context, not a currency-normalized salary model.
applicationMethod	Whether the visible apply action is LinkedIn-hosted (linkedin), leads to an employer site (external), or cannot be determined (unknown). Search-only results use unknown.
closedNotice	An explicit closure message when one is published. A null value does not prove that applications are open.
searchGeoId	Search-page context returned with the detail page. It is not the job's location ID.
referralMultiplier	A published referral callout such as 2x; it is display text, not an independently calculated probability.
similarJobs	Related listings requested with includeSimilar. The current job and duplicate IDs are removed. peopleAlsoViewed, similarSearches, and relatedSearches are separate recommendations returned with job details.

Run behavior

• Keyword and company searches can return zero results without failing.
• A failed optional detail lookup leaves the valid search fields in the Dataset and writes a warning to the run log.
• A failed related-job lookup keeps any Similar jobs already returned with the job details; otherwise similarJobs is null. The job is still saved and the run log includes a warning.
• Job ID mode omits unavailable IDs. The run fails if none of the requested IDs can be returned with complete details.
• maxSimilarJobs limits the final combined list for each result.
• sortBy controls keyword and company result order. Direct job ID results follow the first occurrence of each requested ID.
• Unknown input fields and invalid values fail before any jobs are collected.
• Search classifications and detailed job criteria can differ when a listing's metadata changes.
• Source availability varies by location and listing status. Removed or restricted jobs may not be available.
• Search results are capped at 1,000 per query. Use narrower filters when you need broader coverage.

Data handling

Job listings are public, but descriptions and recruiter fields can contain names, contact details, and other personal data. Collect only what you need, set an appropriate retention period, and use the data in line with applicable law and the source platform's terms. Do not use the Actor for harassment or unsolicited bulk outreach.
