Edit own profile
Input
publicId requiredThe logged-in member's own LinkedIn public id (the slug in linkedin.com/in/<publicId>/).
about optionalNew About section text. Cannot be empty (LinkedIn refuses to save it blank), and the profile must already have an About section (added once via LinkedIn's own "Add about") before this can edit it. Omit to leave About unchanged. Calling with the current About text is a safe no-op.
headline optionalNew headline text (max 220 chars). Cannot be empty. Omit to leave the headline unchanged.
Output
updated requiredabout optionalThe About text as read back from the profile after saving (or the existing text, unchanged, for a no-op call). Present only when about was provided.
headline optionalThe headline as read back from the profile top card after saving. Present only when headline was provided.
FAQ
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 best-matching place, 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).
