## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

## LinkedIn Profile Discovery - Role, Company & Location

> *"I need 2,000 heads of growth at fintech companies in Europe. Sales Navigator caps me at 2,500 and will not export."*

Every tool that finds these people refuses to let you leave with them. Filter LinkedIn by role, seniority, company, industry and location, and export the whole list.

***

### ⬇️ Input

The actor accepts an array of target items (`profiles`).

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `profiles` | Array of strings | Target list items to extract. |
| `maxUnits` | Integer | Safety cap on maximum items returned. Default: `50`. |
| `requestsPerMinute` | Integer | Pacing budget for outgoing requests per minute. Default: `60`. |

***

### ⬆️ Output

Each item emits a structured JSON record containing:

- `publicId` (Identifier string)
- Derived answer metrics and extracted attributes.

***

### How it works

1. Iterates through input list.
2. Requests raw source page over HTTP.
3. Parses metadata and computes derived decision metrics.
4. Pushes structured records to Apify dataset storage.

***

### ❓ FAQ

#### How are derived metrics computed?

Derived metrics require baseline history. On a first run, historical deltas return `null` with explicit reasons explaining that your record starts today.

# Actor input Schema

## `profiles` (type: `array`):

Profile slugs, or the role and company you are trying to reach. One per line - paste a whole target list and get them back together.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

How the run reaches the platform. The default is already the route that works for this source, so leave it alone unless you have a reason to change it.

## `requestsPerMinute` (type: `integer`):

How quickly we work through your list. Slower is gentler on the source and steadier on long lists; quicker gets you the answer sooner.

## `maxUnits` (type: `integer`):

A ceiling on how many rows come back, so a broad search cannot run away with your budget. Raise it when you want the whole picture.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "profiles": [
    "satyanadella",
    "williamhgates",
    "reidhoffman"
  ],
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  },
  "requestsPerMinute": 60,
  "maxUnits": 50
}
```

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "profiles": [
        "satyanadella",
        "williamhgates",
        "reidhoffman"
    ],
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true,
        "apifyProxyGroups": [
            "RESIDENTIAL"
        ]
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("reapx/linkedin-profile-discovery").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
