## Questions

**Is LinkedIn Profile Posts Scraper by Apify free?**

Scrollport has no free tier: it costs $0.0028 per result ($0.28 per 100 results), paid per use from a prepaid wallet with no subscription. Connecting your first agent adds $1 of trial credit, so you can try it before adding funds.

**Do I need an API key from Apify?**

No. Your agent runs it through your Scrollport connection (MCP, the Scrollport CLI or the HTTP API), and Scrollport handles access to Apify, so you don't sign up with Apify or manage an API key.

## Details

**About this tool**
