Limitations

• Posts per profile: LinkedIn shows ~25-30 recent posts per profile and ~5-10 per company page on public pages. Older posts are not accessible without login.
• Auth-walled posts: ~10-20% of posts are restricted by the author's privacy settings and cannot be accessed without a LinkedIn account. The scraper automatically skips these and continues to the next post.
• No search: LinkedIn's post search requires login. This scraper works from profile/company URLs only.
• No pagination: There is no way to load more posts beyond what LinkedIn shows on the public profile page.

To collect more posts, add multiple profile and company URLs to your input.
