Issue with Find Recent Posts by User or Company Action Not Functioning
The "Find Recent Posts by User or Company" action is not working at all
The "Find Recent Posts" action relies on public web scraping to get post data, which means it may not work in certain situations: 1. If the person hasn't been active recently 2. If they have a private account 3. If their content hasn't been publicly scraped recentlyAs alternatives, you can: ** Use services like Apify or Phantombuster and integrate them with Clay (note: use cautiously as these services use your LinkedIn account and could risk being blocked) ** Try using Claygent, our built-in AI research tool with web access (best results with advanced AI models like Argon or OpenAI's GPT 4o)
Looks like you're still looking for help. We're escalating this over to our support team and someone should be in touch soon. In the meantime, feel free to include any other information that may be helpful in solving your issue!
James O.··https://app.clay.com/workspaces/465412/tables/t_ygXkGUEi6aam/views/gv_Ffpjwk6H56SS I've seen support posts from as far back as November 2024 on this. This feature is critical to my use-case. Is the best workaround still Apify?

The feature shows "No Posts Found" with or without a date filter. The prospects have recent LinkedIn posts.
Hey! Let me explain what's happening with those posts. The data we get comes from public web scraping - we don't connect directly to LinkedIn accounts. So if someone hasn't been active or their content hasn't been publicly scraped recently, we might miss some posts. A couple options if you need more complete data: 1. You could try Apify or Phantombuster (heads up though - since these use your LinkedIn account, there's a risk of getting blocked) 2. Lots of users are having good results using Claygent with GPT4 3. RapidAPI has a few LI APIs that are also able pull Linkedin Posts such as this one. Let me know if you want to explore any of these options! I can help point you in the right direction
