A test search returns the following:
[] Using company ID: XXXX
https://www.linkedin.com/voyager/api/search/cluster?count=40&guides=List(v->PEOPLE,facetCurrentCompany->XXXXX)&origin=OTHER&q=guided&start=0
[] 56 Results Found

[!] Headless profile found. Skipping
[!] Headless profile found. Skipping
40 times

[*] Fetching page 1 with 16 results
[!] Headless profile found. Skipping
16 times

the end result is only 1 employee record in the csv output.
I cant seem to found out what and when a profile is 'Headless', the 56 count result is a match with the employee count on the org linkedin page.

Does anyone know what the Headless result means? Thanks in advance!

Headless accounts means the account used to scrape doesn't have a minimum of 3th connection with the employees/profiles of the company. In this case the profiles are shown as "Linkedin Member". Use an account with enough connections when scraping.
