ScrapeField

Get who reacted to a LinkedIn post

Fetch who reacted to one post, up to 100 a page: each person's or company page's name, headline and link, and which reaction. With comment_url, who reacted to one comment. LinkedIn lists people who react by member id, so actor.url is usually a member-id link (/in/ACoAA…) with vanity_name null; linkedin/profile takes it.

Response

Returns an array of linkedin_reaction. This is the demo’s answer, the one the playground above returns, in full rather than abbreviated — including the fields that come back null, because a field is null when the platform does not show it and you should know which ones those are before you build on them. A call with your key returns the account you ask for.

Fields of linkedin_reaction

A reaction to a LinkedIn post: who, and which. Named after the words LinkedIn prints, since LinkedIn has no official data API.

FieldWhat it is

As LinkedIn's reaction menu names them. null for a kind it adds later.
like · celebrate · support · love · insightful · funny

string, one of
A company page can comment and react as itself.

actor.vanity_name
string · or null
The public name in the URL: after /in/ for a person, after /company/ for a company. null where LinkedIn gives only an id.
actor.url
URL
Their page. Where LinkedIn lists a person by member id, as it does a post's reactors, this is a member-id link (/in/ACoAA…).
actor.full_name
string · or null
The person's name, or the company's.
actor.headline
string · or null
The line under the name. For a company, LinkedIn prints its follower count here.
actor.location

array of strings
What they offer, for someone found by linkedin/services. Empty in other lists.

What it costs

7 credits per successful call, whether we fetch it or serve it from cache — you pay for the answer, not for how we produced it. Responses are cached for 3 hours and a cached one tells you when the data was actually fetched. A call we fail costs 0 and is refunded automatically.

On the smallest pack that is $5.46 per 1,000 calls; on the largest, $3.08. The full table.

Questions

How much does the LinkedIn post reactions API cost?

7 credits a call: $5.46 per 1,000 calls on the smallest pack and $3.08 on the largest. A call that fails costs nothing, and the refund is automatic. A cached answer costs the same as a fresh one. Credits are bought in packs and never expire; there is no subscription.

Do I need a LinkedIn account, a login or cookies?

No. You need a key from us and nothing from LinkedIn. We never take a customer's login, cookies or session, at any price, and no account of yours is ever at risk.

Can I try it without signing up?

Yes. Add demo=true and leave the key out, or press Send request in the playground on this page. The demo answers with a real answer about Ferrari, captured once a week, in exactly the shape a live call returns, whatever you ask, and charges nothing.

How fresh is the data?

An answer is kept for up to 3 hours, and a cached one says when it was fetched, in meta.fetched_at. Add fresh=true to fetch it again now, at the same price; it needs any purchase, not the trial.

What does it return?

A list of linkedin_reaction objects. Its fields are named after the words LinkedIn prints, since LinkedIn has no official data API. A field is null when LinkedIn does not show it, never missing. Every field is described on this page.

How do I get more than one page?

Pass meta.next_cursor back as cursor, and stop when it is null. Each page is a call, priced the same. A cursor lasts as long as the answer it belongs to is cached.

Can an AI agent call it?

Yes: it is the MCP tool get_linkedin_post_reactions on our MCP server, with the same parameters, answer and price. Without a key, the tool answers from the demo.
