How can I configure the LinkedIn API integration to return basic profile information:

  • First name
  • Last name
  • Current Company Name
  • Job Title
  • Duration in current role

Is this even possible if I don’t know the person ID? I only know the public profile URL.

Is the correct GET URL https://api.linkedin.com/v2/people/?

 

Thanks

Hi @Ryan Castle NZ 

From ChatGPT:

  • Public Profile URL Limitation: You cannot directly query LinkedIn profiles using the public profile URL through the API.
    • The public URL does not provide the required ID for making API calls.
  • LinkedIn API Policies: Ensure your use of the API complies with LinkedIn’s API usage policies to avoid account restrictions or bans.

Thanks Troy. Appreciate you taking the time to respond.
