LinkedIn Post Engagers Scraper

🎯 Find people engaging with LinkedIn posts

Sales teams, recruiters, and social media researchers can use this Actor to collect public LinkedIn post engagers from post URLs. It returns structured rows with a person's profile, available comment details, source-post context, and optional public profile enrichment. That gives you a clear list of people and the post activity that brought them into view.

Use cases

• Build a list of people who engaged with a LinkedIn post with LinkedIn Post Engagers.
• Find public commenters on a post with LinkedIn Post Commenters.
• Collect comment text and profile details with LinkedIn Comment Scraper.
• Review comments tied to one LinkedIn post with LinkedIn Post Comment Scraper.
• Find commenter profiles for outreach research with LinkedIn Commenter Scraper.

📊 See who engaged and what the post showed

Each saved dataset row keeps the person's public name and profile URL, the source post, and any comment or profile details that the public source provides. Enrichment is optional. Fields that are not available on the public source are omitted from the row.

Returned data

• Person details: name, profile URL, and public professional headline when available.
• Engagement details: public comment text and comment date when available.
• Source-post context: URL, author, publication date, reaction count, comment count, and a short text preview when available.
• Profile enrichment: current company, company page URL, location, follower count, and a short about preview when available.

▶️ Start with public post URLs

Run steps

1. Add one or more public LinkedIn post URLs.
2. Set an optional per-post result limit, profile enrichment choice, headline filters, or profile exclusions.
3. Run the Actor and open the default dataset.

The same settings apply to every submitted post URL. Leave maxResultsPerPost empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted. The Actor uses public LinkedIn data and does not require a LinkedIn login or cookies.

⚙️ Input

The form uses one common configuration for all submitted post URLs.

Input fields

Field	Type	What it does
postUrls	array of objects, required	Lists one or more public LinkedIn post URL objects to process.
postUrls[].url	string, required	The public LinkedIn post URL to process. The form accepts /posts/ and /feed/update/ URLs.
maxResultsPerPost	integer, optional	Sets the maximum number of engagers requested from each post. Leave it empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted.
includeProfileEnrichment	boolean, default true	Adds current company and public company page, location, follower count, and a short about preview when available. Core engagement results remain available when enrichment cannot be retrieved.
headlineIncludeKeywords	array of strings, optional	Keeps people whose public professional headline contains at least one entered keyword. Leave it empty to keep all headlines.
headlineExcludeKeywords	array of strings, optional	Omits people whose public professional headline contains at least one entered keyword. Leave it empty to exclude no headlines.
excludedProfileUrls	array of strings, optional	Omits people with the public LinkedIn profile URLs you enter. Leave it empty to omit no profiles.

Default input example

This is the smallest common input from a successful current-beta run. It leaves maxResultsPerPost empty, so the Actor returns all available results until the source is exhausted.

💳 Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. The primary event is charged when a public engager is saved. Profile enrichment is a separate event and applies when public profile details are saved. Apify platform usage is separate from these Actor events. Actual event counts depend on what the public source exposes and which filters you use.

Machine event	Price	Charged when
linkedin-post-engager-found	$0.00001	One public LinkedIn engager is saved.
linkedin-post-engager-enriched	$0.0108	One saved engager has available public profile details.

🔌 Integrations

Use the Apify API or the default dataset to read the saved JSON rows. Review or export the dataset in Apify, and schedule repeat runs when you need refreshed public results.

❓ FAQ

What does an empty maximum do?

Leaving maxResultsPerPost empty returns all available results until the source is exhausted. Public availability can still produce fewer rows.

What happens if profile enrichment is unavailable?

Core engagement results remain available when profile enrichment cannot be retrieved. Fields such as company, location, follower count, and about text appear only when the public profile provides them.

How do the headline filters work?

The include list keeps a person when the public professional headline contains at least one entered keyword. The exclude list omits a person when the headline contains at least one entered keyword. An empty list leaves that filter unused.

Can I leave out known profiles?

Yes. Add their public LinkedIn profile URLs to excludedProfileUrls. Those profiles are omitted from the saved results.

Can I submit more than one post?

Yes. Add multiple public post URLs to postUrls. The same limit, enrichment choice, and filters apply to the whole list.

Will every public engager appear?

No. The Actor can return only data that the public source exposes at run time. Private, restricted, deleted, or otherwise unavailable activity may produce fewer results or none.

Do I need a LinkedIn login or cookies?

No. The Actor is designed for supported public post URLs and does not require customer-provided LinkedIn login details or cookies.

Does the output include private contact data?

No. The dataset documents public profile and post fields such as names, URLs, comments, company details, location, followers, and about text when available. It does not provide private email addresses, phone numbers, or private profile history.
