linkedin

Profile › Posts

Returns the posts a LinkedIn member published, each with text, author name, like, comment and share counts, media, and publish time.

Use it for what a person posted themselves; profile/reactions covers posts they only reacted to, profile/comments their comments.

Metered: 50–2000 credits. We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes.

Request

  • Base URL: https://api.insightsocial.app
  • URL: https://api.insightsocial.app/v1/linkedin/profile/posts
  • Auth: API key in header x-api-key

Query parameters

urlstring required
Example:https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamhgates/

Full URL of the LinkedIn profile, company, or post.

limitinteger

How many posts to return in the one call, 1 to 100. Defaults to the platform's 20. 100 is the platform's hard ceiling. Ask for the depth you need up front - there is no second page to fetch.

urnstring

The member's opaque LinkedIn URN, as returned in author.ext.urn by /v1/linkedin/profile. Optional, and a pure optimisation: pass it ALONGSIDE url (which stays required) and this call skips the internal handle lookup, so it answers faster. Verified on the deployed API 05/09/2026.

sincestring

Only rows published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Rows older than it are left off each page. This list is not in date order, so the walk does not stop at the date: keep following next_cursor, and each page costs what a page costs even when every row on it is filtered out. A row with no date is kept.

untilstring

Only rows published on or before this date: YYYY-MM-DD (that whole UTC day is included) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Newer rows are left off each page and the walk does not stop, so older pages follow. A row with no date is kept.

dry_run'1'

Set to 1 to get the price of this call without making it: data.dry_run carries credits_min and credits_max. Nothing is charged.
