🐙 Solana Dev: Advanced LinkedIn Sales Navigator Scraper - Verified Leads

Bypass Sales Navigator’s 100-page limit: split any Sales Navigator search into multiple segments—each handling up to 100 pages—to scrape unlimited leads.

Scrape LinkedIn Sales Navigator results using Python & Selenium on the Apify platform. Collect verified leads—names, titles, companies, locations, profile URLs, and emails (if available)—all via your li_at cookie.
