Hi,

i’m facing problems than never before using complex attribute object names via API Request on LinkedIn app.

Assuming that API Request doen’t support restli version 2.0, it perform url-encoding to query parameters in prepare phase.

Linkedin API rejects request as validation error when some complex parameter is defined ‘object.attribute’.

Many Linkedin APIs are defined with that parameters syntax. How to handle them correctly?

Hi @theorangepen, welcome to the Community!

Would you mind sharing the full error message you’re getting? I’d like to see exactly what’s its saying about the validation issue it found.

The API Request action for the LinkedIn app is still in Beta so there isn’t any documentation available for me to confirm whether those types of parameters are supported. But, does the same request work successfully when recreated in a service like Postman? 

Looking forward to hearing from you on this!
