About LinkedIn Post Date Extractor
LinkedIn often obscures the exact timestamp of content, displaying vague labels like "2 weeks ago" or "1 year ago." Our LinkedIn Post Date Extractor solves this by decoding the "Snowflake ID" embedded within every post URL.
This is essential for OSINT (Open Source Intelligence), verifying facts, auditing competitor posting schedules, or referencing specific content in academic and legal citations.
Supported Formats
- Standard Posts: Extracts dates from activity URLs containing 19-digit IDs.
- Comments: Supports detailed comment URLs (fsd_comment parameters).
- Bulk Extraction: Process dozens of links at once and export to CSV.
How the LinkedIn Date Extractor works
LinkedIn URLs contain a unique ID. We convert this ID to binary, extract the first 41 bits, and parse them as a Unix timestamp. This entire process happens in your browser—no data is sent to a server.
