Error output

When a profile cannot be scraped (invalid username, private profile, API error), the actor logs the error and continues with remaining profiles:

{
    "profileUsername": "nonexistent-user-12345",
    "profile_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/nonexistent-user-12345",
    "error": "scrape_failed",
    "error_message": "Profile not found"
}

How to use the API

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('YOUR_ACTOR_ID').call({
    profileUrls: ['satyanadella', 'williamhgates'],
    totalPostsPerProfile: 20,
    postedLimit: 'month',
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

for (const post of items) {
    console.log(`${post.profileUsername}: ${post.post_text?.slice(0, 80)}...`);
    console.log(`  - [${post.stats_total_reactions} reactions, ${post.stats_comments} comments]`);
}

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")

run = client.actor("YOUR_ACTOR_ID").call(run_input={
    "profileUrls": ["satyanadella", "williamhgates"],
    "totalPostsPerProfile": 20,
    "postedLimit": "month",
})

items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items

for post in items:
    reactions = post.get("stats_total_reactions", 0)
    text = (post.get("post_text") or "")[:80]
    print(f"[{post['profileUsername']}] [{reactions} reactions] {text}...")

cURL

# Start a run
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/YOUR_ACTOR_ID/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "profileUrls": ["satyanadella"],
    "totalPostsPerProfile": 10
  }'

# Fetch results (use the defaultDatasetId from the run response)
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/DATASET_ID/items?format=json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"

Integrations

Use Apify integrations to connect this actor to your workflow:

• Google Sheets — Auto-export posts to a spreadsheet for analysis and reporting.
• Slack — Get notified when scraping completes or when high-engagement posts are found.
• Zapier — Trigger downstream workflows with scraped data.
• Make (Integromat) — Build complex automation pipelines.
• Google Drive — Save datasets as JSON or CSV files to Drive.
• Webhook — Send data to any HTTP endpoint when a run finishes.

Tips

• Usernames are simpler — Pass satyanadella instead of the full URL. Both work, but usernames are less error-prone.
• Use time filters — Setting postedLimit to month or week speeds up scraping and avoids pulling stale content.
• Enable removeEmptyFields — Great for cleaner exports, especially when piping into Google Sheets or databases.
• Schedule runs — Use Apify Schedules to automatically scrape profiles daily, weekly, or on any cron schedule.
• Filter by profile — Since each row is a single post, use profileUsername to group or filter results by profile.

Limitations

• Only public LinkedIn profiles can be scraped.
• The number of posts returned depends on what LinkedIn has available for the profile.
• Maximum 1,000 profiles per run.
• Engagement stats are point-in-time snapshots — they will differ if you scrape the same post later.
• Video posts are not currently extracted as a separate media type.

Terms of Service

Apify Actor — Terms of Service

Version: 4.0 Effective Date: May 5, 2026

---

0. ACCEPTANCE BY USE — IMPORTANT

Read this section first.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding legal agreement between you ("User," "you," "your") and UnseenUser, the Publisher of this Apify actor ("UnseenUser," "the Publisher," "we," "us," "our").

0.1 How You Accept These Terms

You accept these Terms by any of the following actions, each of which constitutes a clear, affirmative act of acceptance:

(a) Running the Actor — Initiating any execution of the Actor on the Apify platform (b) Using any output returned by the Actor for any purpose (c) Continuing to access the Actor's listing or documentation after these Terms are visible

0.2 Continuing Acceptance

Each time you run the Actor or use its outputs, you reaffirm your acceptance of the then-current Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms or any subsequent update, you must stop using the Actor immediately.

0.3 No Anonymous Acceptance

You cannot disclaim acceptance by:

• Failing to read these Terms before running the Actor
• Running the Actor through automated systems
• Sharing your Apify account with others who may not have read these Terms

By the act of running the Actor on Apify, you bind yourself, your organization (if applicable), and any individuals or systems acting on your behalf or under your authority.

0.4 If You Do Not Accept

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not run the Actor. No use is authorized without acceptance.

---

PREAMBLE — UNDERSTANDING THE ARCHITECTURE

Before using the Actor, please understand the technical architecture of the service:

The Data Flow

You (User) → Apify Platform → Actor (software) → Third-Party API → Source Platform
                                                       ↓
You (User) ← Apify Platform ← Actor (software) ← Third-Party API

What Each Party Does

• You (the User): Run the Actor on the Apify platform with input parameters you choose
• Apify: Operates the cloud infrastructure that hosts and executes Actors. Apify is a Czech-incorporated company (Apify Technologies s.r.o.) governed by its own Terms of Service.
• The Publisher (us): Publishes software code (the Actor) on Apify's platform. The Actor is a thin wrapper that translates your input into requests to a third-party API and returns the API's responses to you. The Publisher does not operate scraping infrastructure. The Publisher does not store or retain data returned by the Actor. The Publisher does not see, log, or process the personal data of any individuals returned in the Actor's outputs beyond what is incidental to passing the data through.
• Third-Party API Provider: HarvestAPI (https://harvest-api.com) or Scrape Creators (https://scrapecreators.com). These are independent third-party companies that operate scraping infrastructure and return data from source platforms.
• Source Platform: LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, Linktree, etc. These are the platforms whose publicly visible data is accessed by the Third-Party API Providers.

Why This Matters

Your relationship with the Publisher is that of a software user to a software vendor. The Publisher has the responsibilities of a software vendor (functional code, accurate documentation) and the limits of one (the Publisher is not responsible for how you use the data you obtain).

These Terms operate alongside but do not replace:

• Apify's Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy (governing your relationship with Apify)
• HarvestAPI Terms of Service and Scrape Creators Terms of Service (governing the underlying data infrastructure)
• Source Platform terms (LinkedIn, TikTok, etc.) governing the public data accessed
• Applicable law in your jurisdiction and the jurisdictions of data subjects

These Terms incorporate the actor-specific addendum published in each Actor's individual listing ("Addendum"). In the event of a conflict, the more restrictive provision applies.

---

1. NATURE OF THE SERVICE

1.1 What the Actor Is

The Actor is a software program published on the Apify platform. Each Actor:

(a) Accepts structured input from you on the Apify platform (b) Translates that input into HTTP requests to a third-party API operated by HarvestAPI or Scrape Creators (c) Receives HTTP responses from that third-party API (d) Returns the response data to you in a structured format on the Apify platform

The Actor's source code is hosted on Apify's infrastructure. The Actor runs in Apify's cloud, not on the Publisher's servers. The Publisher operates no servers running the Actor.

1.2 What the Actor Is Not

The Actor is not:

(a) A scraping tool — the Publisher does not operate scraping infrastructure, proxies, headless browsers, or fake accounts (b) A direct connection to any source platform — connections to source platforms are made by HarvestAPI / Scrape Creators (c) A data storage or data retention service — the Publisher does not maintain a database of any data the Actor returns (d) A licensed access channel to LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, X (Twitter), Meta, Linktree, or any other source platform (e) Affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or authorized by any source platform

1.3 The Publisher's Limited Role

The Publisher's role is limited to:

(a) Designing and writing the Actor's source code (b) Publishing the Actor on the Apify Store (c) Maintaining the Actor (updating it when API providers change schemas) (d) Providing documentation and customer support via Apify's contact mechanism

The Publisher is a software vendor, similar to a developer who publishes an app on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. The Publisher is not a data provider, data broker, data processor, or data controller for purposes of GDPR, CCPA, Israel's Privacy Protection Law, or equivalent.

1.4 The Third-Party API Providers' Role

HarvestAPI (https://harvest-api.com) and Scrape Creators (https://scrapecreators.com) are independent third-party companies. They:

(a) Operate the actual data scraping infrastructure (b) Maintain relationships with source platforms (or accept the operational risk of accessing public data without such relationships) (c) Are themselves Apify publishers (HarvestAPI publishes 9+ actors directly; Scrape Creators publishes 10+) (d) Provide their own Terms of Service governing their operations (e) Are responsible for compliance obligations relating to the data collection itself

The Publisher is a customer of these providers. The Publisher is not their agent, partner, or representative.

---

5. SOURCE PLATFORM TERMS — YOUR RESPONSIBILITY

5.1 Acknowledgment

The Actor accesses publicly visible data on third-party platforms ("Source Platforms") through the Third-Party API Providers (HarvestAPI / Scrape Creators). Source Platforms include LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, X (Twitter), Meta/Facebook, Linktree, Komi, Pillar, Linkbio, Linkme, and Amazon.

5.2 Your Sole Responsibility

You acknowledge:

(a) You are solely responsible for ensuring your downstream use of data obtained through the Actor complies with the Source Platform's Terms of Service (b) The Publisher makes no representation that any specific use is permitted under any Source Platform's terms (c) The Third-Party API Providers, not the Publisher, bear responsibility for the lawfulness of the data collection itself (d) You should review Source Platform terms before commercial use:

• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/user-agreement
• TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/legal/page/global/terms-of-service/en
• YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/static?template=terms
• X: https://twitter.com/en/tos

• Linktree: https://linktr.ee/s/terms/

5.3 Cease-and-Desist Compliance

If you receive a cease-and-desist letter or other legal demand from a Source Platform regarding your use of Actor outputs, you must:

(a) Cease the contested use immediately (b) Notify UnseenUser within 48 hours via UnseenUser's Apify profile contact form (https://apify.com/UnseenUser) (c) Cooperate with the Publisher as needed to mitigate (d) Not assert against the Publisher any claim arising from your inability to use the Actor for that Source Platform

---

6. DATA PROTECTION — REFLECTING ACTUAL ARCHITECTURE

6.1 Roles Under Privacy Law

For purposes of GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA, Israel's Privacy Protection Law (PPL) including Amendment 13, and equivalents:

• You (the User) are the Data Controller of any personal data you obtain through the Actor and subsequently process for your own purposes
• HarvestAPI and Scrape Creators are the entities that collect data from source platforms — they bear the responsibilities of data processors or controllers (depending on context) for the collection itself
• The Publisher acts solely as a software vendor, not as a data controller or processor, because the Publisher does not store, retain, or substantively process personal data — the Actor merely passes API responses through

6.2 No Data Retention by the Publisher

The Publisher confirms:

(a) The Publisher does not maintain a database of personal data obtained through the Actor (b) The Actor passes data from the Third-Party API directly to you on the Apify platform — data does not flow through the Publisher's infrastructure (c) Apify's standard execution and operational logging may include limited information about Actor runs (input parameters, run duration, data volume) — this is governed by Apify's own privacy practices (d) The Publisher does not access, view, or analyze your Actor outputs except as needed for technical support if you specifically share them with the Publisher

6.3 Your Obligations as Data Controller

Where your use of the Actor involves processing personal data, you are responsible for:

(a) Establishing a lawful basis for your processing (consent, legitimate interest with documented balancing test, contract, etc.) (b) Providing transparent notice to data subjects as required by applicable law (c) Honoring data subject access, rectification, erasure, restriction, and portability requests (d) Implementing appropriate security measures (e) Conducting Data Protection Impact Assessments where required (f) Appointing a Data Protection Officer if your operations require one (g) Registering databases with applicable supervisory authorities (h) Honoring opt-out requests for direct marketing (i) Cross-border transfer safeguards where data crosses borders

6.4 Israel's Amendment 13 — User Compliance

If your use of the Actor involves Israeli residents' personal data, you must comply with the Privacy Protection Law as amended (Amendment 13, effective August 14, 2025). These obligations are yours as the data controller, not the Publisher's as the software vendor.

6.5 Sensitive Data Targeting Restrictions

You will not use the Actor to specifically target, profile, or build datasets focused on:

• Health or medical conditions
• Religious beliefs
• Political opinions
• Sexual orientation or gender identity
• Genetic or biometric data
• Criminal history
• Children under 16

---

7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

7.1 Actor Code

The Actor's source code, schemas, documentation, and branding are owned by the Publisher. You receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Actor for permitted purposes during your active subscription/run with Apify.

7.2 Output Data

The Publisher claims no ownership over the public data the Actor returns. Source Platforms may have copyright, database rights, or other rights in their data; data subjects may have copyright in user-generated content. Your use of output data must respect these rights independently.

7.3 Restrictions

You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or reuse the Actor's code in a competing actor.

7.4 Feedback

Feedback you provide may be used by the Publisher to improve products without compensation to you.

8. PRICING AND PAYMENT

8.1 Apify Platform Billing

Pricing is administered through Apify's pricing models. Apify processes all payments. Apify's payment terms govern refunds and disputes.

---

9. SERVICE AVAILABILITY AND CHANGES

9.1 No Uptime Guarantee

The Actor depends on:

(a) The Apify platform (b) Underlying API providers (HarvestAPI, Scrape Creators) (c) Source Platforms' continued public accessibility

Any of these may change behavior, restrict access, or become unavailable without notice. The Publisher makes no uptime guarantees.

9.2 Service Discontinuation

The Publisher may discontinue any Actor at any time. Reasonable notice will be provided when feasible.

---

10. DISCLAIMERS

10.1 "AS IS" Service

THE ACTOR IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ACCURACY OF DATA.

10.2 No Representation of Lawfulness

A. Architectural Disclosure

This Actor is a software wrapper. It accepts your input parameters, calls the HarvestAPI endpoints, and returns the response data to you on the Apify platform. UnseenUser does not store, log, or substantively process the data returned. The data flows from HarvestAPI through Apify's runtime directly to you.

B. Nature of Data Returned

This Actor returns: Full post content (text, images, video URLs, articles, polls), engagement (likes, comments, shares, reaction breakdowns), post timing and recurrence patterns, author profile snippets, repost data.

Where the Actor's output includes individual people's names, photos, contact details, or content authored by them, that data constitutes personal data subject to GDPR, CCPA, Israeli Privacy Protection Law, and equivalent privacy laws in your downstream processing — but only in your hands as the data controller, not in UnseenUser's hands as the software vendor.

C. Permitted Use Cases

You may use this Actor for the following purposes (non-exhaustive list):

• Influencer marketing audits — understand actual posting cadence + engagement of paid creators
• Competitive content intelligence — see what topics your competitors' executives post about
• Content benchmarking — compare your posting strategy against industry leaders
• Sales triggers — detect job changes, product launches, fundraising announcements buried in posts
• Academic research — analyze professional communication patterns at scale
• AI training corpora — train domain-specific LLMs on professional content (with proper licensing)

D. Specifically Prohibited Uses

In addition to Master ToS Section 4 prohibitions, you may NOT:

• Republish full posts in commercial products that compete with LinkedIn
• Use post content to train commercial AI/LLMs without complying with author rights and LinkedIn's data use terms — LinkedIn's User Agreement explicitly addresses this
• Build 'engagement-bait' systems that copy successful post patterns and impersonate the original authors
• Mass-DM post authors without proper anti-spam compliance
• Track personal disclosures (illness, job loss, family events) of named individuals for commercial targeting
• Profile individuals based on inferred political/religious views from their posts for hiring or commercial decisions

E. Platform Terms of Service Considerations

LinkedIn's Terms of Service prohibit automated extraction of LinkedIn data and the use of LinkedIn data to train AI/ML models without permission. This Actor accesses public posts via HarvestAPI — HarvestAPI bears responsibility for the lawfulness of the data collection. Your downstream use must independently comply with LinkedIn's Terms of Service. If LinkedIn issues a cease-and-desist, notify UnseenUser within 48 hours via the Apify profile contact form (apify.com/UnseenUser).

F. Author Copyright

Post content is copyrighted by the post author. You may use it for:

• Analysis and research (typically fair use)
• Quotation with attribution (typically fair use under research/journalism exception)
• Aggregation of metrics (no copyright issue)

You may NOT:

• Republish full posts in your own products without licensing
• Use posts to generate derivative AI content presenting authors' ideas as your own
• Translate and republish posts without authorization

G. AI Training — Special Caution

If you intend to train AI models on outputs from this Actor:

• LinkedIn's Terms explicitly prohibit this without LinkedIn's authorization
• Authors retain copyright in their posts under the Berne Convention; their consent (or a fair use case) is independently required
• Recent litigation (NYT v. OpenAI, Reddit v. Perplexity, etc.) shows AI training on copyrighted content is not settled law
• The Publisher does not authorize, and has no ability to authorize, AI training use
• Your AI training use is your own legal exposure

H. Author Personal Data

Author names, photos, and headlines are personal data. Cold outreach must comply with anti-spam laws. Do not aggregate post data to build comprehensive personality profiles of individuals for commercial use without their consent.

I. Sensitive Content

LinkedIn posts increasingly contain personal stories — job loss, illness, bereavement, family events. Do NOT:

• Weaponize these disclosures (e.g., target laid-off workers with exploitative offers)
• Build "vulnerability lists" based on inferred life events
• Use bereavement posts as triggers for grief-targeting marketing
