Data

LinkedIn API

extractr scrapes LinkedIn and serves it as clean, structured JSON behind a single API key. Public LinkedIn profiles and company pages — identity, roles, employers, education, follower counts and company detail — plus a name-to-profile finder. Sourced anonymously; no login. Every endpoint has a fixed credit price and is charged only on a successful response.

LinkedIn API FAQ

Is this an official LinkedIn API?

No. extractr scrapes public LinkedIn data and normalises it into stable JSON schemas, so you can build against LinkedIn with one API key and no approval process.

How much does the LinkedIn API cost?

Endpoints start at 3 credits per call (1 credit = £0.001), charged only on successful 2xx responses. Every account gets 1,000 free credits on signup.

How do I authenticate?

Create an API key in the dashboard and send it as the X-API-Key header (or Authorization: Bearer). Keys work across every extractr provider, not just this one.

What happens when a request fails?

Credits are reserved before the call and refunded automatically on any non-2xx response, so an upstream failure never charges you.
