## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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".

### 🔗 Other LinkedIn scrapers

- [LinkedIn Jobs Scraper](https://apify.com/sourabhbgp/linkedin-jobs-scraper) — scrape job listings with salary, description, and filters
- [LinkedIn Profile Scraper](https://apify.com/sourabhbgp/linkedin-profile-scraper) — extract name, headline, experience, education, and articles from public profiles
- [LinkedIn Ad Library Scraper](https://apify.com/sourabhbgp/linkedin-ad-library-scraper) — search LinkedIn's Ad Library by keyword, company, or payer

### Tips

- **URL normalization**: Paste full LinkedIn URLs or just the company slug — both work.
- **Unique data**: This is the only LinkedIn company scraper that includes recent posts, similar companies, and affiliated pages.
- **Rate limiting**: The actor uses polite 2-second delays between requests to avoid rate limiting.
- **Non-existent companies**: Invalid slugs are skipped with a warning, they don't crash the run.
