# Add a contact to a LinkedIn campaign

`POST /linkedin/campaign/contacts`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.emelia.io`
- URL: `https://api.emelia.io/linkedin/campaign/contacts`
- Auth: API key in header `Authorization`

> **Deprecated.**

Adds one profile to the LinkedIn campaign (id). The profile is appended to a dedicated list '<campaign name> contacts from API'. Side effects: a FINISHED campaign is restarted; a RUNNING campaign schedules the new contact. Fails if the profile is already in that list. New integrations should use the multichannel /advanced campaign endpoints instead.

## Request body

- object
  - `id` string, required: LinkedIn campaign ObjectId.
  - `contact` object, required
    - `linkedinUrlProfile` string, required: Profile URL (linkedin.com/in/..., or a Sales Navigator lead/people URL).
    - `firstName` string
    - `lastName` string

## Response `200`

Contact added.

- object
  - `success` true, required

## Other responses

- `400`: Business or validation error. 400 by default; Joi validation errors carry code INVALID_REQUEST.
