Search people on LinkedIn
Find people by name, title, company, school or place. With source=public (the default), LinkedIn's own people search: it finds people well by name, but hides many other results as "LinkedIn Member", and those are left out. With source=sales_navigator, Sales Navigator's lead search: every match, with each person's current roles, at a higher price. 10 a page, or 25 with Sales Navigator. A page takes about 3 seconds, or about 5 with Sales Navigator, and now and then up to 25. Give at least one of query, first_name, last_name, title, current_company, past_company, school or location. Use linkedin/profile on a result for the whole profile.
Costs 7 credits (170 for source=sales_navigator), whether the answer is fetched or served from cache. A failed call is refunded automatically.
