LinkedIn

Get a LinkedIn profile

Fetch a LinkedIn profile: full_name, headline, about, location, follower_count, connection_count, current_company, experience, education and skills. With detail=with_email, also look for their work email, each address checked with its mail server. Use this to enrich a person from their profile URL.

Give exactly one of url or vanity_name to identify the profile.

Costs 11 credits (7 for detail=main, 33 for detail=with_email), whether the answer is fetched or served from cache. A failed call is refunded automatically.

Query parameters

The public profile URL, e.g. https://www.linkedin.com/in/someone. A member-id URL (/in/ACoAA… or /in/ACwAA…), as reactions and Sales Navigator give, works too.

The part after /in/ in the public URL, e.g. someone. A member id (ACoAA…) works too.

detail'full' | 'main' | 'with_email'

main is the profile as LinkedIn first shows it, without opening a section: up to 5 positions, 2 schools and 2 skills, for less. with_email is the whole profile and a search for their work email, in emails, for more.
