Search stored LinkedIn posts with explicit keyword groups

Required permissions: people:read.

Direct search with no generated query or semantic fallback. Split a request into concepts; put spelling variants or synonyms inside the same group. Groups are AND, alternatives are OR, and each alternative matches a normalized whole-token phrase. The response returns the executed applied groups. Optional authorIds constrain the authors.

Verifies at most 200 ranked candidates from the recent-post index and returns at most 50 matches, ranked by keyword relevance within that sample. This bounded direct search accepts at most seven days and omits bodies shorter than 120 characters. Coverage is always non-exhaustive; an empty sample cannot prove absence. Read coverage.candidateCapReached and coverage.resultsTruncated, including on empty responses. There is no global match count or continuation cursor. Narrow criteria for a more complete answer. The requested date window is not a guarantee that every recent post has arrived. Nothing is saved. The server has an eight-second request budget; busy and timeout responses are failures, not empty matches.
