What is LINE Official Account Scraper?

LINE Official Account Scraper is a data extraction tool for LINE Official Accounts (LINE公式アカウント, LINE OA), the business accounts that brands, shops, restaurants, and salons run inside the LINE messenger. Every account with a public profile has a web page on page.line.me. The Actor reads those pages and returns clean JSON instead of the screen you see in the LINE app.

It works as a LINE Official Account API alternative: you don't need a LINE login, a LINE Business ID, or Messaging API access to collect public profile data such as friend counts, contact details, and opening hours.

The easiest way to try it: open the Input tab, keep the two sample links, and click Start. You get two full LINE profiles in a few seconds.

What can LINE Official Account Scraper do?

• 👤 Scrape LINE Official Account details: name, status message, basic LINE ID, premium ID, badge type (certified or premium), country, operating company, profile and cover images, and friend count.
• 📍 Get business contact data: phone number, full address split into postal code, prefecture or province, city and street, latitude and longitude, nearest stations, websites, and social media links (Instagram, X, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook).
• 🕒 Collect opening hours and shop info: day-by-day opening hours, the business-hours note, price range, accepted payment methods (cards, PayPay, d払い, and more), seats, facilities, smoking policy, and takeout or delivery.
• 🎟️ Read profile content: coupons with validity dates, showcase items with prices and links, announcements, FAQ, the "about" text, and reward card goals.
• 🔗 Find related LINE accounts: switch to Related accounts mode to list the accounts LINE recommends on each profile, with rank, name, badge, and friend count. Use it to discover competitors and similar businesses.
• 🧩 Use any link format: page.line.me links, line.me/R/ti/p/@id add-friend links, lin.ee short links, or plain @IDs. Premium IDs and basic IDs of the same account are merged so you don't pay twice.

On the Apify platform you also get scheduled runs to track friend counts over time, a full REST API, integrations with Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, and webhooks, and export to JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or HTML.

What data can you extract from LINE Official Accounts?

Field	Description
name / description	Account name and the status message under it
line_id / premium_line_id	Basic LINE ID (@914aycak) and premium ID (@linefriends_hk_mo) if the account bought one
account_page_id	LINE's internal account page ID
friend_count	Number of LINE users who added the account as a friend
badge_type	CERTIFIED (blue badge, verified account) or PREMIUM (green badge, premium account)
country_code / provider_name	Account country and the company that operates it, when shown
image_url / background_image_url	Profile picture and cover image
phone / address / latitude / longitude	Published phone number, full address, and map location
postal_code / province / city / street_address / nearest_stations	Address parts and nearby train stations
website_urls / social_links	Websites and social media profiles
business_hours / business_hours_note	Opening hours for each weekday and the free-text hours note
price_range / payment_methods / facilities / seats	Budget, payment options, facilities such as parking or Wi-Fi, and seat count
coupons / showcase_items / announcements / faq / about	Content blocks the account shows on its profile
add_friend_url / qr_code_url	Ready-to-use add-friend link and QR code image

Every row has the same keys. Values the account doesn't publish are null or an empty list. Lists such as coupons and opening hours stay inside their account row instead of creating extra rows.

Related accounts mode returns one row per recommended account:

    "error_code": null,
    "error_message": null,
    "scraped_at": "2026-10-30T11:06:28Z"
}

Links that can't be scraped give one row with status: "failed", an error_code, and an error_message. These rows are free:

error_code	Meaning
INVALID_INPUT	The text is not a LINE Official Account link or ID (for example a personal line.me/ti/p/~ link)
NOT_FOUND	No LINE Official Account exists with this ID
PROFILE_NOT_PUBLIC	The account exists but has no public page.line.me profile. The row still has line_id, friend_count, add_friend_url, and qr_code_url
NO_RELATED_ACCOUNTS	Related accounts mode only: LINE shows no recommendations on this profile
REQUEST_FAILED	LINE did not answer after several retries

Use cases

• Competitor research: compare friend counts, coupons, and showcase items of rival shops, salons, or restaurants on LINE.
• Friend count tracking: schedule a daily run to follow the growth of your own and competing LINE Official Accounts.
• Lead generation: collect phone numbers, addresses, websites, and social links of local businesses that use LINE, especially in Japan and Thailand.
• Market mapping: start from one account and use related accounts mode to find similar businesses that LINE groups together.
• Data enrichment: turn a list of LINE IDs from your CRM or a website crawl into full company profiles with location and opening hours.
• Influencer and brand monitoring: check badge type, premium ID, and the operating company behind a LINE account.

How it works

1. The Actor turns every input into a LINE search ID. lin.ee short links are followed to the account they open.
2. It loads the account's public page.line.me profile and reads the profile data embedded in the page. No browser and no LINE login are used.
3. For accounts without a public profile page, it asks LINE's public friend counter for the friend count and saves a PROFILE_NOT_PUBLIC row.
4. In related accounts mode it reads the "Recommended accounts" list from the same page, in the order LINE shows it.
5. Each account is saved as one dataset row. Up to 5 links are processed at the same time, with automatic retries.

How much does it cost to scrape LINE Official Accounts?

LINE Official Account Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay per account row saved to the dataset. Compute and proxy costs are included in the event price, so they are not billed separately.

Event	Price per event	Price per 1,000
account-scraped (Free plan)	$0.00299	$2.99
account-scraped (Bronze plan)	$0.00249	$2.49
account-scraped (Silver plan)	$0.00199	$1.99
account-scraped (Gold plan)	$0.00149	$1.49

One event is one successful row: a full profile in account details mode, or one recommended account in related accounts mode. Failed rows are not charged. A small platform Actor start fee also applies per run. For example, 1,000 LINE profiles cost $2.99 on the Free plan, and the 21 related accounts of one profile cost about $0.06. Apify's free plan includes monthly platform credit you can use for this Actor.

FAQ

Do I need a LINE account or the LINE Messaging API? No. The Actor reads the profile pages that page.line.me shows to anyone on the web. You don't need a LINE login, a LINE Business ID, or a channel access token.

Where do I find an account's LINE ID or link? In the LINE app, open the account's profile and tap Share to copy its link, or read the ID that starts with @ under the name. Many businesses also put a lin.ee link or an add-friend button on their website. All of these work as input.

Why does an account return PROFILE_NOT_PUBLIC? Some LINE Official Accounts, often large brands, have no public web profile. page.line.me then only shows an add-friend QR code. In a test of 300 Japanese accounts, 32 were like this. The Actor still returns the friend count, add-friend link, and QR code image for them, and the row is free.

Why are phone, address, or opening hours empty for some accounts? Each business decides what to publish on its LINE profile. In a sample of 268 public Japanese accounts, 57% listed a website, 45% an address, 41% social links, 36% opening hours, and 31% a phone number. Missing values are null or an empty list.

Why does an opening-hours entry show 00:00-00:00? The Actor returns the hours exactly as the account entered them. Some businesses leave a day at 00:00-00:00 and explain their schedule in business_hours_note instead, so check both fields.

How many related accounts can I get? LINE shows up to 21 recommended accounts on a profile, and the list stayed the same between loads in our tests. Every Japanese account in our 60-account sample had recommendations. The Hong Kong and Thai accounts we tested had none, so they return NO_RELATED_ACCOUNTS. To go further, run account details or related accounts mode again on the IDs you found.

Is the friend count exact? friend_count is the number LINE itself reports for the account at the time of the run. Schedule runs to see how it changes over time.

What if I enter the premium ID and the basic ID of the same account? The Actor notices both point to the same account and saves it once, so you are charged once.

Which countries are supported? Any country where LINE Official Accounts have page.line.me profiles. We tested accounts from Japan, Thailand, and Hong Kong. Addresses and other text are returned as the account entered them, often in the local language.

Can I schedule the scraper and connect it to other tools? Yes. Use Apify schedules to run it daily or weekly, and send the results to Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier, n8n, or your own system through integrations, webhooks, or the API.

Something does not work or a field is missing. Open an issue on the Issues tab with your input and run ID, and we will look into it.

Is it legal to scrape LINE Official Accounts?

The Actor collects only business profile data that LINE Official Accounts publish openly on page.line.me for anyone to see. It does not log in, read chats, or access personal LINE accounts. Some small businesses, such as sole traders, may list a personal phone number or address, which can be personal data under the GDPR, Japan's APPI, or Thailand's PDPA. Make sure you have a lawful basis for storing and using it, and don't use it for spam. For more background, read Apify's article Is web scraping legal? and consult a lawyer if you are unsure about your use case.
