Linkedin Post Reactions Scraper

LinkedIn Post Reactions Scraper

Scrape the list of reactors (reactions) from one or more LinkedIn post URLs and save the results to the default Apify dataset.

Key features

• Bulk input via urls / keyword
• Live-saving results to the dataset (partial results survive failures)
• Proxy strategy:
  • Start with no proxy (direct to linkedin.com)
  • If blocked: fallback to datacenter proxy
  • If blocked: fallback to residential proxy (then stick with residential for the rest of the run)
  • If residential is blocked: retry 3 times on residential

Input

Example:

{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.linkedin.com/posts/satyanadella_no-one-becomes-a-clinician-to-do-paperwork-activity-7302346926123798528-jitu"
  ],
  "liAtCookie": "YOUR_LI_AT_COOKIE_VALUE",
  "reactionType": "ALL",
  "maxItems": 30,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false }
}

Input fields

• urls (array): List of LinkedIn post URLs (bulk supported).
• keyword (array): Alias bulk input (treated the same as urls).
• liAtCookie (string, secret): Your LinkedIn li_at cookie value.
• reactionType (string): Reaction type filter, or ALL.
• maxItems (integer): Maximum items per post.
• proxyConfiguration (object): Apify proxy input (editor: proxy).

Output

Each dataset item matches this shape (example):

{
  "reaction_type": "LIKE",
  "reactor": {
    "urn": "ACoAA....",
    "name": "Full Name",
    "headline": "Headline",
    "profile_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/....",
    "profile_pictures": {
      "small": "https://...",
      "medium": "https://...",
      "large": "https://...",
      "original": "https://..."
    }
  },
  "_metadata": {
    "post_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/posts/...",
    "page_number": 1,
    "total_reactions": 20379
  }
}

Notes

• This actor relies on a valid LinkedIn session cookie (li_at) to access reaction data.
• LinkedIn can block automated access; use the built-in proxy fallback strategy when needed.
