Record type
type
Optional
Always post. Carried so a consumer merging several Apify datasets can tell record kinds apart without inspecting keys.
Activity ID
id
Optional
LinkedIn's numeric activity id, as a string. It exceeds 2^53 and would silently lose precision if any consumer read it as a JSON number.
Activity URN
urn
Optional
urn:li:activity:{id} — the form LinkedIn's own surfaces expect.
Attributed URN
attributedUrn
Optional
The ugcPost or share URN the activity is attributed to. Not interchangeable with id: the same post has different numbers under each.
Post URL
linkedinUrl
Optional
Canonical permalink. For a post reached through the embed fragment there is no permalink to report — LinkedIn 404s a synthesised one — so the in-app feed/update/ URL is used instead of leaving the field empty.
Post text
content
Optional
The body with LinkedIn's line breaks preserved; bullet lists and hashtag blocks stay readable for downstream text analysis. Taken from the rendered commentary, else the JSON-LD articleBody, else the og:description meta tag.
Publication time
postedAt
Optional
Derived from the activity id's snowflake bits rather than from datePublished, which only exists on permalinks. Both are present on every discovery route this way, and they agree to within a few milliseconds.
Post images
postImages
Optional
The post's own media only. Avatars and reaction glyphs are excluded, so an empty array means the post carried no image rather than that parsing failed.
Linked article
linkedArticle
Optional
The article card attached to the post, if any. Null for a plain text or image share.
Engagement
engagement
Optional
Counts as LinkedIn shows them to a signed-out visitor, which is lower than the in-app figure on some posts.
Matched query
searchQuery
Optional
The first input query this post's text satisfied. Every post is matched, whatever route found it, so a post taken from an author's page is filtered on keywords too.
Discovered via
discoveredVia
Optional
How the post was found: search:{engine}, author-page, or input-url. Useful for judging which discovery route is actually earning its requests on your queries.
Comments
comments
Optional
Empty unless
scrapeCommentswas enabled. Merged from the JSON-LD island and the rendered markup by index, but only where the two agree on the author name — a blind zip would misattribute every remaining comment when LinkedIn renders a pinned comment in one source and not the other.
