LINKEDIN API - How to get user info


I want to get user information from LinkedIn with an official API, but I can't find any endpoint that could give me such info.

something like this:

fetch("https://<URL>/api/<USERNAME>")

is it even possible to fetch user info like this?

ideally, it would work in browser environment


Solution

  • You should review the LinkedIn API to determine what, if anything, best fits your needs. It sounds like you're looking for the Profile API, which requires special approval to use.
