Input

Input settings for LinkedIn People Search by Name with Company & School Filters
SettingTypeRequiredDefaultWhat it does
names array Yes – Person names to look up. Use a full name ("Satya Nadella"), a single name, or "First Middle Last". Prefix a single term with "first:" or "last:" for a one-sided search.
maxResultsPerName integer No 10 Maximum profiles to return for each name. LinkedIn's public directory lists up to 50 candidates per name.
currentCompany string No – Keep only people whose current employer contains this text, e.g. "Microsoft" or "Conrad Labs". Checked against the profile the actor opens for each candidate.
location string No – Keep only people whose location contains this text, e.g. "London" or "Pakistan".
enrichProfiles boolean No true Open each matched profile's public page to fill photo, about, followers, education and a verified current employer. Turn off for a faster, directory-only result.
includeHeadlinesFromSearchEngines boolean No true When the directory has fewer matches than requested, also check public search-engine results for the name. Also recovers indexed headlines. Free and best-effort.

Example input

Built from the input form's published example values and defaults.

{
  "names": [
    "Satya Nadella"
  ],
  "maxResultsPerName": 1,
  "enrichProfiles": true,
  "includeHeadlinesFromSearchEngines": false
}

Run it from code or an AI agent

The same run through the Apify API, with the example input. You need an Apify API token; the run is billed to your account at the Store price.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run_input = {
    "names": [
        "Satya Nadella"
    ],
    "maxResultsPerName": 1,
    "enrichProfiles": True,
    "includeHeadlinesFromSearchEngines": False
}

run = client.actor("vexaloom-labs/linkedin-people-search-by-name-with-company").call(run_input=run_input)
if run is None:
    raise RuntimeError("The Actor run was not found.")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

pip install apify-client

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from "apify-client";

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: "<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" });
const input = {
    "names": [
        "Satya Nadella"
    ],
    "maxResultsPerName": 1,
    "enrichProfiles": true,
    "includeHeadlinesFromSearchEngines": false
};

const run = await client.actor("vexaloom-labs/linkedin-people-search-by-name-with-company").call(input);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

npm install apify-client

cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/vexaloom-labs~linkedin-people-search-by-name-with-company/run-sync-get-dataset-items"   -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN"   -H "Content-Type: application/json"   -d '{"names":["Satya Nadella"],"maxResultsPerName":1,"enrichProfiles":true,"includeHeadlinesFromSearchEngines":false}'

Waits for the run and returns the dataset items (runs over 300 seconds return HTTP 408; start an async run instead).

MCP (AI agents)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=vexaloom-labs/linkedin-people-search-by-name-with-company",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Adds this Actor as a tool in an MCP client that takes a remote server URL (Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code) through Apify's hosted MCP server. OAuth sign-in also works without the header. Clients that only start local servers can wrap the URL with npx mcp-remote.

What a run costs

The result rate falls on higher Apify plans. Each figure is the published per-result rate times the number of results.

Cost of LinkedIn People Search by Name with Company & School Filters results by Apify plan
Apify planPer 1,00010,000 results100,000 results
Free plan$0.99$9.90$99
Starter plan$0.82$8.20$82
Scale plan$0.66$6.60$66
Business plan$0.49$4.90$49
  • Every run also has a start event, charged per GB of memory (minimum one): $0.10 on Free, $0.03 on Business. At its default memory of 4 GB a run starts at $0.40 on Free. Fewer, larger runs keep this small.
  • The Free plan includes $5 of monthly usage (Apify pricing, checked 2026-11-11); at the Free rate that covers at most about 5,050 results, less start events and platform usage.
  • Worked example: 10,000 results in one run on the Free plan cost $10.30 ($9.90 for results + $0.40 start), plus Apify platform usage (compute), billed separately by Apify.
  • Pay per event. Platform usage (compute) is billed by Apify on top of the event prices. Compare other tools in the cost estimator.
