# LinkedIn API skill
Read public LinkedIn data as clean JSON. This LinkedIn API skill is the largest surface in the repo: a profile plus twenty sub-resources — experiences, educations, skills, certifications, publications, patents, recommendations, volunteering and more — alongside company data, funding and insights, people search, company search, job search, post reactions and comment threads, and the LinkedIn ad library.
LinkedIn is the hardest mainstream platform to read programmatically and the one most people want most. Each sub-resource is its own endpoint, so you pay for the slice you need instead of pulling a whole profile to read one field.
This skill wraps **38 live LinkedIn endpoints** from the [ScraperSocial](https://scrapersocial.com) API. Public data only, returned as clean JSON.
## When to use this skill
- You are enriching a lead or candidate record from a public profile URL or handle.
- You need one slice of a profile — just the work history, just the skills — rather than everything.
- You are researching a company: headcount, funding, insights, open jobs, employees, posts.
- You are sourcing candidates or prospects through people search or job search.
- You are analysing engagement on a post: reactions, comments and replies.
### Do not use this skill when
- **Watch the cost.** `get_profile.js --section=contact` costs 25 credits, the most expensive non-video call here. Full profiles and company records cost 10. Fetch the specific section you need inste
