Query Parameters

url*string

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.

comment_id*string

The parent comment's comment.id from /v1/linkedin/post/comments, or its comment.ext.urn (urn:li:comment:(ugcPost:,)).

cursor?string

LinkedIn cursor.

dry_run?"1"

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.
