Query Parameters

url*string

Full URL of the LinkedIn profile, company, or post.

urn?string

The member's opaque LinkedIn URN, as returned in author.ext.urn by /v1/linkedin/profile. Optional, and a pure optimisation: pass it ALONGSIDE url (which stays required) and this call skips the internal handle lookup, so it answers faster. Verified on the deployed API 05/09/2026.
