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". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## LinkedIn Company Employees Scraper Find employees of any company by searching LinkedIn profiles via Google. Pure HTTP actor -- no browser, login, or cookies required. ### Features - Search by company name, LinkedIn company URL, or "employees at {company}" query - Returns employee name, LinkedIn profile URL, headline, and current position - Uses Google SERP proxy for reliable results - Pay-per-event pricing: $0.008 per result ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `queries` | array | Company name, LinkedIn URL, or "employees at {company}" | | `maxResults` | integer | Max employee profiles to return (default: 50) | | `profileScraperMode` | string | Mode identifier (for compatibility) | #### Example Input ```json { "queries": ["employees at Google"], "maxResults": 20 } ```` Or with a LinkedIn company URL: ```json { "queries": ["https://www.linkedin.com/company/google/"], "maxResults": 20 } ``` ### Output Each result contains: ```json { "fullName": "John Smith", "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnsmith/", "headline": "Software Engineer at Google", "experience": [ { "position": "Software Engineer" } ] } ``` ### How It Works 1. Parses company name from input (URL, search query, or plain name) 2. Searches Google for `site:linkedin.com/in/ "{company_name}"` 3. Extracts LinkedIn profile URLs, names, and headlines from search results 4. Parses headline to extract current position ### Cost - Pattern A: Pure HTTP, 256MB memory - Uses GOOGLE\_SERP proxy (handles Google anti-bot internally) - Estimated cost: ~$0.09/1K results - PPE: $0.008/result (88%+ margin) # Actor input Schema ## `queries` (type: `array`): Company name, LinkedIn company URL, or 'employees at {company}' query. ## `profileScraperMode` (type: `string`): Scraper mode identifier (for Praxy compatibility). ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of employee profiles to return. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings. GOOGLE\_SERP proxy is used by default. ## Actor input object example ```json { "queries": [ "employees at Google" ], "profileScraperMode": "Profile details no email ($4 per 1k)", "maxResults": 50, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "GOOGLE_SERP" ] } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "queries": [ "employees at Google" ], "maxResults": 50, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "GOOGLE_SERP" ] } }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("thirdwatch/linkedin-company-employees-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
