Issues with LinkedIn Message Template Not Recognizing Recent Posts

Hi, when I'm using this template sending linkedin message referencing recent posts, maybe im mistaken but this function I cant find it or modify it. However, the template still can be run but returned the wrong results. When someone has 10 posts, the value will returned as "no posts"

The "no posts" issue could be happening due to how our post data collection works. The post data comes from public web scraping, and there are a few reasons why posts might not be detected even when they exist: 1. The profile might have privacy settings that limit public access 2. The content hasn't been publicly scraped recently 3. The user hasn't been active recently Here are two alternative approaches you can try: 1. Use services like Apify or Phantombuster integrated with Clay to get post data (note: use cautiously as these services use your LinkedIn account and could risk being blocked) 2. Try using Claygent with advanced AI models like Argon or GPT 4o for better results For the existing Find Recent Posts function, you can customize the search by using these optional parameters: ** Keywords: Add specific keywords to search for in posts ** Post Date Filter: Filter by date (e.g., "30 days ago")

This gets updated after an interval i guess and is not real time.

The Find Recent Posts function does not provide real-time data. The post data comes from public web scraping rather than direct LinkedIn connections, which means there may be delays in data updates. To get the most accurate results when using this function, you can: 1. Use the optional parameters to refine your search: • Add specific keywords to filter posts • Set a Post Date Filter to specify a timeframe (e.g., "30 days ago") 2. Consider alternative approaches for more current data: • Use services like Apify or Phantombuster integrated with Clay (note: use cautiously as these use your LinkedIn account) • Try Claygent with advanced AI models like Argon or GPT 4o for better results

Hi, thanks! Why can't find the feature "find recent posts by person or company" I need to look at the logic of this to make sure. Also, I mean the company linkedin profile has 10 posts but it returned none. What i'm trying to do is actually to find recent posts by company linkedin.

Thank u! By any chance there is a tutorial on hoe to use this API? I can also try to figure out myself. For some reasons, I thought the function "finding posts" is a function clay has - maybe im mistaken

Clay does have that function but it gets updated after an interval. If you are not seeing any posts by company then it means its not updated yet

Hi there, we've temporarily removed the feature to Find Recent Posts, since it didn't have the performance we wanted. We're going to be launching a newer improved version soon. Exactly timeline is TBD, but we'll be sure to announce!
