Are you using any API to scrape LinkedIn?
Comment · 2 years ago
Claiming decent email accuracy is one thing, but saying you’ve built an AI agent that handles LinkedIn enrichment with the most up-to-date data? That’s flat-out impossible. I’ve developed a tool (datamagnet.co) that does exactly this, and let me tell you, scraping LinkedIn is a constant war—more like cat and mouse. If what you’re saying is legit, I want to see it in action. I’ll gladly shut down my tool if your model actually delivers.

Just tried this out. Onboarding process is cumbersome as I just wanted to see a demo. Although the questions were very detailed and specific which is good. After setting up the ICP I have not received any leads so far.

Does all these questions transform into variables to your LLM? What is the your data source to filter leads? I have more questions and would love to chat.

I have a solution to scrape job portals like LinkedIn, Indeed, and a couple more. But the jobs data's value plummet very sharply over time and extracting this data at a large scale is quite extensive. Not sure what is your though.

TLDR: The short answer is: it is legal to scrape LinkedIn properly. However, scraping LinkedIn a certain way could be illegal.

Scraping data from public LinkedIn profiles? Ok. Scraping data from LinkedIn profiles with fake logged-in accounts? Not ok.

Good to know. Can you share your email id? I will ping you as soon as I have the first version of application ready.

Yes, I am aware about this and I won't be using my account for extraction. Users will put their session cookies for data extraction.

I am trying this out, I haven't really written any code to build the application. Generating codes via LLMs.

I did read about this. Not most know about this.
