Get a LinkedIn person profile

Fetch one person's LinkedIn profile. identifier accepts a profile URL, the slug after /in/ (e.g. 'williamhgates'), or a urn:li:fsd_profile URN; URLs are cleaned automatically. Always returns the overview (name, headline, location, current position, follower counts) plus up to 2 requested sections from about|experience|education|skills at no extra cost; each section beyond 2 adds 2 credits (max 4 sections). Costs 4 credits base. If you only have a name, use linkedin_search_people first; this tool does not search. Results from linkedin_search_people with is_anonymous=true cannot be fetched here; treat them as 'someone matching this exists' and stop. Companies belong to linkedin_get_company.

Query parameters

identifierstring required

Profile URL, slug (after /in/), or urn:li:fsd_profile URN.

sectionsstring[]

Extra profile sections. First 2 are included in the base price.

freshness'recent' | 'realtime'

recent (default) serves cached data from the last few hours when available; realtime forces a live fetch for +2 credits (refunded if we fall back to cached data). Trial keys are cached-only and reject realtime with TRIAL_CAP_EXCEEDED; paying upgrades this same key to unlock it.

max_creditsinteger

Spend ceiling for this one call. The call is rejected (nothing charged) if its quote exceeds this. Only the quote is ever reserved, never this ceiling.

Headers

Idempotency-Keystring

Required on paid-key calls; free-tier trial-key calls do not need it. Unique key per logical call (UUID recommended). Reuse the SAME key when retrying the same call; a replay returns the stored result without charging again. Reusing a key with different arguments returns IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED.
