# Monitor ransomware discussions on LinkedIn

**Use case:** 

Collect public LinkedIn conversations about ransomware for cybersecurity research and content monitoring. AI filters candidate posts for topic relevance, and you can export text, authors, dates and available engagement. Posts may include opinions, vendor content or incident commentary; this is not a verified threat-intelligence feed.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/lofomachines/linkedin-post-search-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
