## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

### 🚀 Extract LinkedIn Post Reactions in Seconds

### ✨ Key Features

- **No account needed**: No risk of account restrictions or bans
- **Detailed reaction data**: Get all reactions on any LinkedIn post
- **Reaction types**: Filter by specific reaction types (Like, Praise, Empathy, etc.)
- **Reactor details**: Names, headlines, profile URLs, and profile pictures
- **Pagination support**: Access all reactions for highly-engaged posts
- **Structured data**: Clean JSON format for easy analysis

### 🔧 Simple Usage

Simply provide a LinkedIn post URL or post ID to extract all reactions. The actor supports pagination to get all reactions for posts with high engagement.

#### Input Parameters

- **post_url**: LinkedIn post URL or ID (required)
- **page_number**: Page number for pagination (default: 1)
- **reaction_type**: Filter reactions by type (ALL, LIKE, PRAISE, EMPATHY, APPRECIATION, INTEREST)
- **limit**: Maximum number of results to return (1-100, default: 50)

### Pagination Support

Each run returns up to 100 reactions per page.

Page Number is the field used for pagination. It's 1 by default.

- Page 1: Returns reactions 1-100
- Page 2: Returns reactions 101-200
- Page 3: Returns reactions 201-300
- And so on...

#### How to use pagination:

1. Start with page_number=1 to get the first 100 results
2. To see the next 100 results, set page_number=2
3. Continue incrementing the page number to see more results

echo '{
  "post_urls": [
    "https://www.linkedin.com/posts/satyanadella_no-one-becomes-a-clinician-to-do-paperwork-activity-7302346926123798528-jitu",

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,apimaestro/linkedin-post-reactions"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
