Feature Request: Scrape LinkedIn Posts and Engagement Data
Do you have a feature to scrape all the linkedin posts of a people and then scrape all the commenters / likers of those posts
Do you have a feature to scrape all the linkedin posts of a people and then scrape all the commenters / likers of those posts
Yes, we offer features to find LinkedIn posts and their engagers. You can use our "Social Posts" feature to find posts from specific individuals, then use the "Find Post Audience" action to collect people who liked or commented on those posts. The "Find Post Audience" action lets you retrieve all reactions (likes, praise, empathy) or just comments from LinkedIn posts. You can then use "write to table" to organize these engagers for further enrichment.
The maximum of posts is 10, how can I get all the posts of a people ?
While Clay's native "Social Posts" feature has a limit of 10 posts, you have two alternative options to retrieve more LinkedIn posts: 1. Use third-party services like Apify or Phantombuster to collect post data, then import it into Clay using our integrations with these services. Note that these use your LinkedIn session cookies, which carries some risk of being blocked by LinkedIn. 2. Try Claygent, our built-in AI research tool with web access. For best results, set Claygent to use advanced AI models like Argon or OpenAI's GPT 4o. After collecting posts, you can use "write to table" to organize the data and "Find Post Audience" to gather engagement information.
Pierre L. theboomerang.co, has this. Ping on support, this is getting active on Monday.
You can use our "Social Posts" feature to get recent posts from a LinkedIn profile, but there is a limit of 10 posts per person. To go beyond this, you can use Claygent (our AI web scraper) or integrate with third-party tools like Apify or Phantombuster to collect more posts, then import that data into Clay. Once you have the post URLs, use the "Find Post Audience" action to retrieve all commenters and likers for each post. You can then use "write to table" to organize and further enrich these engagers in Clay. Note that using third-party scrapers may require your LinkedIn session and carries some risk of being blocked by LinkedIn.
