4. Output

   For each event activity record, the app collects the following data: profile URL, timestamp of data collection, event URL, event title, view count, reaction count, comment count, repost count, attendee count, and the original post timestamp. If any errors occur during data collection, they are also recorded. The app generates a new Excel file with all the collected data each time it runs, allowing for easy analysis and comparison of event engagement over time.

   

Notes

• Please log into your LinkedIn account in the specified browser beforehand and ensure the browser is in full-screen mode while the app is running.

• Do not use the mouse or keyboard while the app is running to avoid interruptions.

• Please follow LinkedIn's automation rate limits and be mindful of how many profiles you extract event data from each day.

  • For best results, limit each run to 10 profiles, and no more than 80 profiles per day.

  • If you're pulling 100 event results per profile, try cutting that number in half to stay within safe limits.

  • Start small and increase gradually to reduce the chance of being flagged.

  • Stick with the same IP when possible, and if you run into blocks or connection issues, scale down your extraction volume.
