Edit LinkedIn post
Input
url requiredPermalink of a post owned by the logged-in account, e.g. https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:share:7498370628849147904/ — as returned by create_post, get_post or get_profile_posts. Query string is ignored. A post belonging to someone else is refused, since LinkedIn offers no Edit action on it.
text requiredThe new post body, replacing the existing one entirely. This edits a real, public post immediately and irreversibly — the previous text is not recoverable through this script — so show the exact replacement text to the user and get their explicit approval for this specific content before running. Approval from an earlier or unrelated message does not carry over. LinkedIn publicly marks an edited post as edited.
Output
url requiredThe permalink acted on, query string stripped.
text requiredThe new body that was saved.
edited requiredTrue once the Save went through.
account_used requiredDisplay name of the logged-in member, read from the post's own author line rather than assumed.
verified_on_page requiredTrue only if the permalink was reloaded after saving and the post actually renders the new text. Never inferred from the dialog closing.
unchanged optionalTrue when the requested text already matched the post's current body — nothing was saved, because LinkedIn keeps Save disabled until the text actually differs.
previous_text optionalThe body as it stood before this edit, read out of the editor. Null if it could not be read.
Search LinkedIn people
Search LinkedIn people by keywords with optional title, name, company, school, currentCompanyIds/pastCompanyIds (numeric ids from get_company_info), connectionDegrees, connectionOf, location, and pagination (10/page). Returns page, total, locationResolved, and people (name, url, publicId, memberUrn, degree, headline, location, snippet, followers, mutualConnections). Finding shared connections: every result row includes memberUrn (the member's stable id; get_profile returns it too). Pass that value as connectionOf in a second call and you get that member's connections — LinkedIn only reveals the ones you're allowed to see, so for a 2nd/3rd-degree member the result is exactly the people you have in common (your possible introducers). No profile visit and no other filter needed; connectionOf composes with every other facet. Location is the geoUrn facet: pass free-text `location` (resolved to the top geo suggestion via LinkedIn's typeahead, returned as locationResolved) OR — for precision/disambiguation — a `geoUrn` from suggest_locations (the geo analog of get_company_info).
Get LinkedIn profile
Fetch a LinkedIn profile's top card and About section by publicId. Returns profileUrl, name, headline, degree, memberUrn, location, currentCompany, followers, connections, and about. Check name first: non-null means the record is trustworthy; null means the fetch failed. Requires being logged in to LinkedIn.
Get LinkedIn profile experience
Get the full experience list from a LinkedIn profile's dedicated experience page by publicId, with grouped companies expanded to one entry per role. Returns positions (title, company, companyUrl, employmentType, dateRange, duration, location, description).
