LinkedIn profile scraper is developed using Selenium and Beautifull soup libraries in python. It can scrap data from public Linedin User profiles. This Scraper Works as of 2021.

This scraper will extract publicly available data:

🧑‍🎨 Profile: name, talks about, title, location, and url

👨‍💼 Experiences: job title, company name and job type and, company url

🗺️ Contact: Email and Website Link

In order to scrape LinkedIn profiles, you need to make sure the scraper is logged-in into LinkedIn. For that you need to enter your Linkedin account email and Password in Config file. I suggest you enable all the privacy options so people don't see you visiting their profiles when using the scraper. You will have to provide link to the profile which you want to scrap.

• Clone the repository
• Setup Virtual environment

$ python3 -m venv env

• Activate the virtual environment

$ source env/Source/activate

• Install dependencies using

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

• Enter your email and Password in config file and run the scraper with links to profiles to scrap

• Upon start the module will open a headless browser session using Chromium.
• Scraping usually takes a few seconds, because the script needs to scroll through the page and expand several elements in order for all the data to appear.

LinkedIn has some usage limits in place. Please respect those and use their options to increase limits. More info: LinkedIn Commercial Use Limit
