Self Improvement Project

This application developed for parsing people informations for LinkedIn. That application needs your LinkedIn account session cookie value to search people. LinkedIn does not allow scrapping without a authanticated session. I recommend you to use a dummy LinkedIn account for that project. But LinkedIn can hide people's information if you use a dummy account which is created new.

Running the project

Please create a new table on Airtable by using People-all.csv file that I shared. You should get your airtable api_key and base_id, from Airtable API. Then, change AIRTABLE_API_KEY, AIRTABLE_BASE_ID and AIRTABLE_TABLE fields in .env file with yours.

  • npm install to install the dependencies
  • Login to your (dummy) LinkedIn account using your browser and open your browser's Dev Tools to find the cookie with the name li_at. Use that value in LINKEDIN_SESSION_VALUE field in .env file.
  • You can modify the companies array in source/companies.js.
  • npm start to run
