cloud API with similar concept: search and extract LinkedIn profiles #178

Open restyler opened 1 year ago

restyler commented 1 year ago

I don't see a lot of action happening here across scrapedin issues recently, though I know a lot of people are struggling when extracting data from Linkedin.

So, I decided to share with you guys a managed API which tries to solve a problem of extracting LinkedIn data reliably: https://rapidapi.com/restyler/api/linkedin-profiles1

The best part? It does not require your login or cookies.

I am the author and though the API was recently launched, I already see a great interest from a lot of developers.

The API has just two endpoints: /search to get a list of linkedin URLs for a person or a company, and /extract to get the JSON structured data from a linkedin URL. The API uses a combination of proxies and smart retry strategies to get the information.
