Returns one LinkedIn post: its text, author name and picture, like, comment and share counts, attached media, and the publish time.
Use it when you have a post URL and want the post itself, not its comments, reactions, or reposts.
50 credits per call.
Authorization
apiKey Your key from the dashboard. It starts with isk_.

Query Parameters
Full URL of the LinkedIn post. It has to carry the post's ACTIVITY id, either https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:<id> or https://www.linkedin.com/posts/<slug>-activity-<id>-<code>. Every endpoint that lists posts publishes the activity form as post.url, so copy that field rather than rebuilding the URL from post.id, which is not always the activity id.
Set to 1 to get the price of this call without making it: data.dry_run carries credits_min and credits_max. Nothing is charged.
