Request body
JSON, posted to this endpoint.
- urlstring
https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamhgates/
Full URL of the public LinkedIn profile whose posts should be returned.
- cursorstring
Pagination cursor from a previous response's nextCursor.
- limitinteger
10
Most posts to return (10-100, default 10). Ignored on sources that page: each call returns one full page of 50 posts; follow nextCursor for more. Sources that cannot page return up to `limit` posts in one call with no nextCursor.
- requireFieldsarray
Optional; omit it and routing is unchanged, with the cheapest source serving. Name the output fields this request must be able to return, for example `nextCursor`, and it is served only by a source that returns every one of them. Fields you do not name are still returned whenever the serving source has them. This can raise your price: when the cheapest source cannot return a named field, a dearer source serves, and you are quoted and charged its price. A named field can still be absent on a profile that genuinely lacks it. Naming a combination that no single source returns together is refused as invalid input, with no charge. On a paginated walk it applies to the first page only; later pages stay with the source that page chose, at the price it was quoted.
