Likes

Like a post or comment

Queues a like on post_urn. That can be a post — the activity urn GET /v1/engagement/feed serves, a urn:li:share: or urn:li:ugcPost: urn, or the post's LinkedIn url including a lnkd.in short link — or a comment, by its urn:li:comment:(activity:<post id>,<comment id>) urn as GET /v1/comments returns it. A post has two identities, urn:li:activity: and urn:li:ugcPost:, with different ids; whichever one you name is the one that gets liked and the one every response echoes, so GET /v1/likes/{post_urn} matches on it and the same post named the other way is a separate like. A url or a urn:li:share: urn is resolved to the activity urn it names. Liking a post and liking one of its comments are two separate likes. A lnkd.in link we cannot open, or a share or ugcPost urn LinkedIn will not resolve, answers 422 url_content_unavailable; anything we cannot read as a post or a comment in the first place answers 400 validation_failed. Resolving a share or ugcPost urn reads the post from LinkedIn; the like itself is queued, not sent, during this request. scheduled_for is when the like is due to go out, following the account's sending schedule and office hours, so it can be minutes away or the next morning. Calling it again for a post already queued answers 200 with the like in flight instead of queueing a second one, so it is safe to retry. A like the account cannot send within its scheduling horizon is refused with 409 like_blocked. Likes made from the Taplio app's own like button are not tracked here.
