Struggling to Extract Skills Data from LinkedIn Profiles?
Hey there! I'm struggling to get the Skills section data off of LI profiles, has anyone figured out how to do this? The Skills section is not included in the Enrich Person from Profile Enrichment. When people tag skills in their work experience, we also don't see it in the Experience data. I have tried using Claygent and it will grab the first two that are shown on the main profile page, but seems to fail when it's required to click on "Show all # Skills" and navigate to the expanded list (on a new URL). I noticed that it takes you to a new URL that is standardized when you click to show all skills, so I used a formula to add "/details/skills/" on to the LI URL in clay and tried having Claygent navigate there specifically and it didn't work either. Claygent will give an answer like this in the reasoning "A complete list of skills would require accessing the '/details/skills/' URL, which is not directly provided in the readily available data. However, the provided data gives a partial picture of his skills." I've tried a zenrows scrape of the Skills URL but it doesn't work, maybe because it's a Formula URL column? Using the regular URL still doesn't get me the expanded list of Skills. Hoping I might be overlooking a simple fix, any ideas or feedback welcome!! This is the example profile I have been using as he doesn't have much text in his profile but does have skills tagged in his work experience and a list of about 10 in his skills section. The best output I've gotten for technical skills is AWS, Node https://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-marty/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-marty/details/skills/
