LinkedIn Jobs Scraper

Reads the public job offers that LinkedIn shows without logging in, for a job title and a place, and returns them as JSON: title, company, location, posted date, the salary line when the card shows one, and the offer address.

You pay per offer returned, and you set a cost cap per run. This Actor is independent and not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by LinkedIn.

Input

Input fields of the Actor
query	Job title or keywords, required
location	City or country, required
maxItems	Maximum offers returned. Default 20, up to 100
includeDescription	`true` opens the page of each offer to add its description and criteria. Default `false`
maxCostUsd	Cost cap per run in USD, start event included. Default 0.25, enough for 100 offers
proxyConfiguration	Optional Apify proxy settings. Unset by default

Example input

{
  "query": "data engineer",
  "location": "Toronto",
  "maxItems": 5,
  "includeDescription": false
}

Output

Fields of each item
jobId	Always returned
title	Always returned
company	Always returned
location	Always returned
postedDate	YYYY-MM-DD, or null
salary	The salary line as displayed on the card, or null; most offers show none
url	Always returned
description	With `includeDescription`: plain text
seniorityLevel	With `includeDescription`
employmentType	With `includeDescription`
industries	With `includeDescription`

With includeDescription set to true, the Actor also opens the public page of each offer and adds its description and its criteria. It is off by default, because it adds one request per offer.

Example output

Output, from a run of this Actor with that input: two of the five items. The offers, dates and companies are those the site showed at the time of the run and change from one run to the next.

Cost of a run

Cost of one run, start event included
20 offers (the default)	20 × $0.001 + $0.00005 = $0.02005
100 offers (the maximum)	100 × $0.001 + $0.00005 = $0.10005

maxCostUsd stops the run when the cost of the offers returned, start event included, reaches it. Offers already returned are kept, and the run status says it stopped at the cost cap.

What it does not return

Anything about the person who published the offer: no name, no profile link, no job title of that person, no hiring-team block.

Email addresses and phone numbers: those recognised in a description (international numbers with a plus sign, North American numbers, five pairs of digits) and email addresses are replaced by [removed], as are links to personal profiles. A contact written in another way can remain; the pattern is a filter, not a guarantee.

Applicant counts, company pages and any field that is not listed above.

How the Actor reads LinkedIn

One request every 5 seconds, with a declared User-Agent that names this Actor. No login, no cookie, no account, no challenge solving, no disguise. If the site refuses two requests in a row (for example status 429 or 403, or a sign-in page), the run stops there and keeps what it already returned: it does not retry around the refusal. The first page of results gives about 60 offers; the next pages are read by offset. A run of 100 offers without descriptions took about 40 seconds in our measurement (6 list requests); with descriptions each offer adds one more request, so it takes much longer.
