How to Extract Recent LinkedIn Posts with Specific Keywords

Hi guys - I am looking for a way to extract all the posts recently posted on LinkedIn that include a combination of keywords. The only option I see is find professional posts but it requires me to add the profile of companies or people. Which doesn't make sense - I want to find out who is attending an X event - any thoughts?

For finding LinkedIn posts with specific keywords (like event attendees), you have a few options: 1. Use Clay's "Find Recent Posts by User or Company" feature where you can input a Social URL and add keywords to filter posts. This lets you search for specific content within posts from a particular profile. 2. For LinkedIn events specifically, you can: • Find relevant events on LinkedIn • Register for the event to access the attendee list • Extract attendee profiles manually or use Lix-it.com (free up to 1,000 exports) • Import these profiles into Clay for further analysis 3. Consider alternative options like: • Apify or Phantombuster (which integrate with Clay) to extract post data • Claygent with advanced AI models like Argon or GPT-4o for web research These approaches can help you find relevant content without manually adding individual profiles.

Hey Andreas A.. We've built this flow a couple of times. Here's a brief breakdown of what that looks like - https://www.linkedin.com/posts/activity-7247906144440999937-VbY4?utm_source=share&utm[…]m=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAABc8IW8BBrQu8x4393zljv6-Th1jUACtlV0

Cool workflow by Vikrant — that’s one way to approach it. You can also use Claygent to search for and process LinkedIn posts based on keyword combinations without needing to specify profiles upfront. Let me know if you’d like help setting that up.

Hi Bo, Thanks for getting back to me. Can you let me know how I can potentially do it on Clayagent? As for Vikrant R. still unsure how he actually does this: 'Built a list of people who mentioned they’d be attending SaaStr on LinkedIn'. As far I understand, through Clay, you can only use this function for up to 5 profiles. As mentioned before, this is futile unless you know which profiles to check. if for example, I can add a whole sector list with 1000s of contacts and then add my event keywords, that would have been interesting.

Hey George, You can use Claygent to search LinkedIn posts based on keywords without needing to add profiles upfront. Here’s how to set it up:
1. Create a blank new table, add different values per rows. Then add a new Claygent column and type a prompt like:
“Search LinkedIn for posts from the past month mentioning ‘SaaStr’ or ‘attending SaaStr’ and return the name and LinkedIn URL of the person who posted it.”
2. Output structure You can have it return structured info like: • Name • LinkedIn URL • Snippet of the post • Date of the post This lets you skip the need to predefine profiles or build a sector list first. You’re searching the web directly from Clay. You can also create more simply a new table > Google Search as a source with Google Search Operators site:[linkedin.com/in](http://linkedin.com/in) OR site:[linkedin.com/posts](http://linkedin.com/posts) "attending SaaStr" OR "going to SaaStr" Let me know if you have more questions.
