LinkedIn Profile Scraper - Public Profile Extractor, No Login

Extract structured public LinkedIn profile data from profile URLs or usernames. This actor is built for users who need clean JSON/CSV profile data without LinkedIn cookies, browser sessions, or account login.

Use it for recruiting research, lead generation, CRM enrichment, market research, founder research, candidate shortlisting, and workflow automation where you already have LinkedIn profile URLs or public identifiers.

Why Use This Actor

• No LinkedIn login, cookies, or account setup required
• Works with LinkedIn profile URLs and public identifiers
• Returns one structured dataset row per profile
• Extracts basic profile data, work experience, education, skills, certifications, languages, and company details when available
• Includes basic_info.email when a public email is returned from visible profile/contact data
• Supports bulk profile extraction through the profiles input
• Output is ready for Apify Dataset export, API integrations, CRMs, ATS tools, spreadsheets, and automation platforms

What You Can Extract

• Full name, first name, last name

• Profile picture and background image URLs
• Location, country, city, and country code when available
• Follower count and connection count when available
• Current company, company URL, company logo, and company ID when available
• Work experience with title, company, duration, location, description, employment type, and skills
• Education, certifications, and languages when available
• Top skills when returned by public profile data
• Verification, premium, creator, open-to-work, and related public profile flags when available
• Public email when available in returned contact/profile data

Email Behavior

includeEmail is enabled by default. The actor will include an email in basic_info.email only when an email is returned from visible LinkedIn profile/contact data.

This actor does not run independent email discovery, does not perform SMTP validation, and does not guess emails from names or company domains. If no public email is returned, basic_info.email will be null.

This keeps the actor focused on low-cost public LinkedIn profile extraction instead of paid contact enrichment.

Input

Provide one or more LinkedIn profile URLs or public identifiers:

{
  "profiles": [
    "https://www.linkedin.com/in/whoareyouanas/",
    "neal-mohan"
  ],
  "includeEmail": true,
  "maxConcurrency": 5,
  "requestTimeoutSecs": 20
}

The legacy single-profile input is also supported:

{
  "username": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/whoareyouanas/",
  "includeEmail": true
}
