Introduction

The LinkedIn Scraper API lets you extract structured data from LinkedIn Sales Navigator search results. Send a request with your LinkedIn cookies and a search URL, and receive clean JSON data back — no browser automation, no HTML parsing.

​

What you can scrape

The API supports two data types from LinkedIn Sales Navigator:

​

Key features

• Single JSON endpoint — one POST /scrape call returns structured data
• Deterministic pagination — fixed 25 items per page, controllable via the start offset
• Rate-limit aware — built-in delays and backoff to keep your sessions safe
• Typed responses — every field is documented in the API Reference

​

Typical workflow

1. Get an API key — contact your API provider to receive a key
2. Get your LinkedIn cookies — extract li_at and JSESSIONID from your browser session (see Getting Cookies)
3. Build a Sales Navigator search URL — go to LinkedIn Sales Navigator, apply your filters, and copy the search URL
4. Call the API — send the cookies, URL, and your API key to POST /scrape
