# Search LinkedIn People
> This action allows you to extract a list of people from LinkedIn based on a set of given criteria.
This action is particularly useful when you need to gather information about individuals on LinkedIn for purposes such as lead generation, market research, or talent acquisition.
## Inputs
The action requires a LinkedIn People Search URL as an input.
The LinkedIn People Search URL should start with '[https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/people](https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/people)'.
## Parameters
The action accepts two parameters: `max_results` and `only_extract_unique_profile`.
This parameter sets the maximum number of results to extract. The default value is 100, and the maximum value is 1000.
This parameter determines whether to extract all results or only unique results. By default, it is set to false, meaning it will extract all results. If set to true, it will only extract searches that contain one unique result.
## Output Fields

The full name of the person
The first name of the person

Here is the JSON schema for the output fields:
```json
{
"full_name": "",
"first_name": "",
"last_name": "",
"job_title": "",
"company_name": "",
"headline": "",
"location": "",
"linkedin_profile_url": "",
"tracking_id": "",
"profile_image_url": "",
"linkedin_profile_id": "",

"current_title": "",
"linkedin_profile_handle": "",
"shared_connection_search_url": "",
"number_shared_connections": "",
"shared_connection_profile_urls": "",
"linkedin_people_post_search_url": ""
}
```
## Specificities
To extract more people, you should create another configuration with a new segmentation. For example, if you want to extract "growth hacker" profiles in France, you can create one configuration with a "growth hacker" search in Paris and a second configuration with a "growth hacker" search in Lyon. This way, you can extract more than the system limit of 1000 profiles.
