LinkedIn Post Scraper
LinkedIn post scraper: scrape LinkedIn posts by URL into structured data, with text, author, follower count, publish date, images and LinkedIn post engagement (reactions and comments). LinkedIn posts for content analysis, social listening and market research.
What it extracts
Every field below comes from the Actor’s published dataset schema.
| Field | Description | Type |

post_url | Post | link |
date_published | Published | date |
author.name | Author | text |
author.followers_count | Author followers | number |
content | Content | text |
image_url | Image | image |
reactions_count | Reactions | number |

Input parameters
Generated from the Actor’s input schema — the same fields the Apify console shows.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
urls | array | Required | Public LinkedIn post URLs, one per line. Accepts linkedin.com/posts/... links (the Copy link to post format), linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:... and urn:li:ugcPost:... links, and country subdomains such as uk.linkedin.com. Each URL returns one post. URLs that are not posts are skipped with a warning. |
proxyConfiguration | object | Optional | Proxy used to reach LinkedIn. Apify datacenter proxies work for public posts. Switch to residential proxies if many posts come back blocked. |
