n8n-nodes-scrapeunblocker-linkedin-jobs

This is an n8n community node. It lets you search LinkedIn job postings by keyword and location in your n8n workflows and get them as JSON: title, company, location, posted date and a direct job URL, filtered by date posted, workplace type, job type, experience and salary. No LinkedIn login needed.

The node runs the LinkedIn Jobs Scraper Actor by ScrapeUnblocker on the Apify platform with your own Apify account, waits for the run to finish and returns every scraped record as an n8n item.

n8n is a fair-code licensed workflow automation platform.

Installation

Follow the installation guide in the n8n community nodes documentation. The npm package name is n8n-nodes-scrapeunblocker-linkedin-jobs.

Credentials

The node authenticates with an Apify API token. Every run starts on the Apify account that owns the token and is billed to that account (see Pricing).

1. Create an Apify account (skip if you already have one)

1. Go to console.apify.com/sign-up and sign up with email, Google or GitHub.
2. Confirm your email address if Apify asks you to.

The free Apify plan needs no credit card and includes a monthly usage credit, which is enough to try the node. Current plan limits are listed on apify.com/pricing.

2. Get your API token

1. Open Apify Console and go to Settings → API & Integrations, or open console.apify.com/settings/integrations directly.
2. Find the Personal API tokens section.
3. Either use the existing token (the one marked Default API token created on sign up): click the eye icon to reveal it or the copy icon to copy it.
4. Or create a dedicated token for n8n (recommended, so you can revoke it without affecting anything else):
   1. Click + Add new token (the button may read Create new token).
   2. In the Create a new personal API token dialog, enter a Description such as n8n.
   3. Optionally switch on Set expiration date and pick a date.
   4. Leave Limit token permissions switched off. A token with limited permissions may not be allowed to run this Actor or read its results.
   5. Click Create and copy the new token.

The token starts with apify_api_. Treat it like a password: anyone who has it can run Actors on your account. You can revoke or rotate it on the same page at any time.

Working in an Apify organization? Switch to the organization in Apify Console first and copy a token from its API & Integrations page, so runs are billed to the organization.

3. Add the credential in n8n

1. Add the LinkedIn Jobs Scraper node to a workflow and open it.
2. In Credential to connect with, choose Create new credential. (You can also create an Apify API credential from the n8n credentials list.)
3. Paste the token into API Key and click Save. n8n checks the token right away; an invalid token shows Authorization failed - please check your credentials.

Already have an Apify API credential in n8n (for example from the official Apify node)? This node uses the same credential type, so you can simply select it.

Operations

Pick a Resource and an Operation. Each n8n input item starts one Apify run. List fields accept several values separated by commas or new lines, or an array returned by an expression.

Options

How a run works

1. The node starts the Actor on your Apify account with the fields you set.
2. It waits for the run to finish.
3. It returns every record from the run's dataset as a separate n8n item.

The run is also visible in Apify Console under Runs. If a run fails or times out, the node error links to the run log and tells you whether any results were saved before it stopped.

Stopping the n8n execution only stops the node from waiting: the Apify run keeps going and its results are still charged. To stop it, abort the run in Apify Console under Runs, and use Timeout (Seconds) to cap long runs up front.

Use as an AI Agent tool

The node can be attached to an n8n AI Agent as a tool, so the agent can call it on its own.

Output

• One item per job posting, with job ID and URL, title, company, company URL and logo, location, posted date (ISO date and relative text) and benefit tags.
• With Include Full Description on, the first 25 jobs also carry the full description, seniority level, employment type, job function, industries, applicant count and salary when LinkedIn shows them.

Fields of a returned item: jobId, title, company, companyUrl, location, postedDate, postedText, jobUrl, companyLogo, benefits.

Example item (shortened):

{
  "jobId": "4431992044",
  "title": "Python Developer",
  "company": "CACI International Inc",
  "companyUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/caci-international-inc",
  "location": "Chantilly, VA",
  "postedDate": "2026-07-08",
  "postedText": "2 months ago",
  "jobUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/4431992044/",
  "companyLogo": "https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/D4E0BAQFob5rET4oo0w/company-logo_100_100...",

}

            "type": "main",
            "index": 0
          }
        ]
      ]
    }
  }
}

Pricing

The node itself is free. The Actor is paid per result on Apify: $0.50 per 1,000 jobs plus a tiny start fee per run ($0.00005), charged to the Apify account of your token. Every item the node returns counts as one result. The current price is always shown on the Actor page, and your spending is visible in Apify Console.

Compatibility

Tested with n8n 2.40 (self-hosted).
