LinkedIn Jobs Scraper

Collect LinkedIn job listings as structured data. Search by role and location, browse jobs from one company, or retrieve jobs that you already know by ID. Add full job details and related roles when you need them.

Job and company data

• Job identity, title, company, location, listing URL, publication time, and search position.
• Description, published criteria, experience and employment type, applicants, and closure notices.
• Salary text, compensation context, benefits, application method, and recruiter details.
• Similar jobs, jobs that people also viewed, and related searches.

Choose a collection method

Your goal	Use	Required input
Find roles by words and filters	Keyword search	keywords
Reuse a LinkedIn search URL with any filter	URL search	searchUrl
Browse the open roles from one company	Company search	companyId
Retrieve jobs that you already know	Direct lookup	jobIds

You can add full job details to keyword, URL, and company searches with fetchDetails. You can add related roles to all methods with includeSimilar. If an input contains more than one method, the Actor uses jobIds first, then searchUrl, then companyId, and then keywords.

Collect jobs

In Apify Console, select Input, paste one of the following examples, and select Run. Open the default Dataset when the run finishes. It contains 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"
}

Search with a LinkedIn URL

Open a job search on LinkedIn, set any filters, and copy the browser URL. Paste it into searchUrl. The Actor reuses the URL's filters. This unlocks filters that have no dedicated field, such as a custom posted window.

{
  "searchUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/search?keywords=software%20engineer&location=United%20States&f_TPR=r3600",
  "maxJobs": 25
}

f_TPR=r3600 limits results to the last hour (3600 seconds). Change the number for any window. maxJobs, fetchDetails, includeSimilar, maxSimilarJobs, and proxy settings still apply. The other filter fields are ignored in this mode. For a custom window without a URL, use datePostedSeconds.

Browse jobs from one company

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

Enriched output includes companyId, so you can reuse it in a later run.

Fetch known job IDs

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

Job ID mode includes job details. You can reuse jobId values from an earlier run. The Actor removes blank entries. Each requested nonblank entry produces one result in the same order, so repeated job IDs remain repeated. includeSimilar and maxSimilarJobs still apply. Direct lookup ignores keywords, companyId, location, maxJobs, jobType, experienceLevel, workType, datePosted, salary, sortBy, easyApplyOnly, and fetchDetails.

Add details and related jobs

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

Input

Use one collection mode per run. For compatibility with older combined inputs, the Actor uses jobIds first, then searchUrl, then companyId, and then keywords.

Field	Type	Default	Description
keywords	string		Search terms.
searchUrl	string		A LinkedIn jobs search URL. The Actor reuses its filters, including ones with no dedicated field such as a custom posted window. Takes precedence over companyId and keywords.
companyId	string		Return jobs from one company. Takes precedence over keywords.
jobIds	string[]		Fetch known jobs. Takes precedence over the search modes.
location	string		Location used with keyword search.
maxJobs	integer	25	Maximum search results. Set to 0 for all available results, up to 1,000.
sortBy	string	relevant	relevant or recent.
jobType	string[]		full_time, part_time, contract, temporary, volunteer, internship, or other.
experienceLevel	string[]		internship, entry_level, associate, mid_senior, director, or executive.
workType	string[]		on_site, remote, or hybrid.
datePosted	string		past_24h, past_week, or past_month.
datePostedSeconds	integer		Custom posted-within window in seconds, such as 3600 for the last hour. Overrides datePosted. Maximum 2592000 (30 days). Ignored when searchUrl is used.
salary	string		Minimum salary: 40000, 60000, 80000, 100000, 120000, 140000, 160000, 180000, or 200000. LinkedIn can filter using unpublished salary estimates, so returned jobs do not always expose salary fields.
easyApplyOnly	boolean	false	Return only Easy Apply jobs.
fetchDetails	boolean	false	Add descriptions, complete published criteria, compensation context, benefits, application details, recruiter information, and related searches.
includeSimilar	boolean	false	Add related jobs to each result.
maxSimilarJobs	integer	25	Maximum related jobs per result. Set to 0 for all available related jobs, up to 1,000.
proxyConfiguration	object	{"useApifyProxy":true}	Connection settings for the run.

The Actor removes blank entries from jobIds. If no nonblank ID remains, it checks searchUrl, then companyId, and then keywords. If no collection mode has a nonblank value, the run finishes successfully with an empty Dataset. Nonblank strings are sent without trimming. Unknown input fields are retained for backward compatibility and ignored by the Actor. Known fields still enforce their documented types, enums, and numeric bounds.

Complete input examples

Output

Each item in the default Dataset represents one job. Search fields are always present. Detail fields are null when you do not request enrichment or when the listing does not publish a value. Search-only results use unknown for applicationMethod and false for hasDirectApply.

This input produced the recorded values below on 29 July 2026:

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

The selected fields below are unchanged. Long text, media, related data, selected IDs, and compatibility aliases are not shown. This is not a saved Dataset item.

How to read key fields

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 recognised badge labels; benefitsSummary preserves the full label for recognised 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-normalised 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.

Selected related-job fields

A similarJobs value can contain related listings such as these. Other nested fields are not shown, so this is not a saved Dataset item.

{
  "similarJobs": [
    {
      "jobId": "4405220132",
      "title": "Software Engineer - Backend",
      "company": "Helsing",
      "location": "Stockholm, Stockholm County, Sweden",
      "salary": null,
      "jobUrl": "https://se.linkedin.com/jobs/view/software-engineer-backend-at-helsing-4405220132"
    },
    {
      "jobId": "4392435158",
      "title": "Software Engineers",
      "company": "MSAB",
      "location": "Stockholm, Stockholm County, Sweden",
      "salary": null,
      "jobUrl": "https://se.linkedin.com/jobs/view/software-engineers-at-msab-4392435158"
    }
  ]
}

Selected enriched job fields

These nested objects use the following fields:

Parent	Child fields
recruiter	name, title, profileUrl, photoUrl
similarJobs[], peopleAlsoViewed[]	jobId, title, company, companyUrl, companyLogoUrl, location, salary, jobUrl, postedDate, postedTimeAgo, isNew
similarSearches[]	title, url, openJobsCount
relatedSearches[]	title, url

criteria is an open map of source labels to source values. recruiter is null when LinkedIn does not return recruiter information. The first output example shows non-null benefit and compensation fields.

Selected search-only fields

Unavailable job ID

Compatibility fields

Existing 0.x fields remain available for current integrations. Prefer the accurately named replacements in new code.

Compatibility field	Preferred field
benefitsCount	benefitsSummary
applicantsStatus	applicantsCategory
compensationProvider	compensationHeading
hasDirectApply	applicationMethod === "linkedin"
geoId	searchGeoId

Collection behaviour

Search result limits

Keyword and company searches can return no items. Each search query can return at most 1,000 jobs. Use narrower queries when you need to cover more results.

If the first search page cannot be collected, the run stops. If a later page cannot be collected, the Actor saves the jobs from earlier pages and can finish successfully.

Partial enrichment

If job details are not available, the Actor keeps the search fields and sets the unavailable detail fields to null. If a related-job lookup does not return data, the Actor keeps related jobs that came with the job details. Otherwise, similarJobs is null, and the main job stays in the Dataset.

Unavailable job IDs

An unavailable job ID produces a placeholder with the requested jobId and canonical URL. This keeps direct lookup results aligned with the supplied ID list, including duplicate IDs.

LinkedIn can change listing status, classifications, criteria, and result order.
