LinkedIn Search Scraper

Find LinkedIn pages through search, with titles, displayed links and result snippets. Add a LinkedIn page type such as profile, company, post or job to the search query.

What data can you extract?

Profile, company and post details reflect public LinkedIn pages; the source may omit optional fields.

Field	Type	Description
position	number	Result position in the LinkedIn LinkedIn search result list, as a whole number; null when the source does not supply one.
title	text	Title of the LinkedIn search result, as shown by LinkedIn; null when no title is published.
link	link	Result link for this LinkedIn search result on LinkedIn; null when the source does not provide a URL.
displayed_link	text	Displayed domain shown for the LinkedIn search result by LinkedIn, in the format used by the source; null when it is omitted.

FAQ

Is it legal to collect public information?

This Actor is for information visible on the public source pages it reads. You are responsible for checking the source terms, privacy and copyright rules, and the laws that apply to your use.

How many records will a run return?

The result count depends on the input limits, pagination settings and what the source makes available. A small query or unavailable page can return fewer records, including none.

Can I call it through the API or connect it to other tools?

Yes. Send the same JSON input to POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/thescrappa~linkedin-search-scraper/runs, then read the run’s default dataset. Make, Zapier and n8n can start runs and pass dataset rows to the next step; Google Sheets can receive rows through those workflows or a dataset export.

What happens when a request fails?

Check the run log for the source or input error, correct the input and retry after a temporary source issue. A run can contain rows saved before a later request failed.

Can LinkedIn Search target profiles, companies, posts or jobs?

Yes. Add the appropriate site:linkedin.com path to query, such as /in, /company, /posts or /jobs/view, to focus the result type.
