Overview

The node interacts with LinkedIn profiles to retrieve various types of data related to a personal or company LinkedIn profile. Specifically, for the Get Posts operation under the Linkedin resource, it fetches the latest posts made by the specified LinkedIn profile.

This node is useful in scenarios where you want to monitor or analyze recent content published by a LinkedIn user or company page. For example, marketers can use it to track competitor posts, recruiters can follow updates from potential candidates, or social media managers can aggregate posts for reporting.

Properties

Name Meaning
LinkedIn Profile URL The LinkedIn URL of the personal or company profile whose latest posts you want to get.

Output

  • The output is a JSON array containing the latest posts from the specified LinkedIn profile.
  • Each item in the array represents a post with its associated details as returned by the external API.
  • The exact structure of each post object depends on the API response but typically includes post content, timestamps, and metadata.
  • This node does not output binary data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential to authenticate requests to the Leadspicker API service.
  • The node makes POST requests to the endpoint /utils/linkedin-posts of the Leadspicker API.
  • No additional environment variables are explicitly required beyond the API authentication setup.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or malformed LinkedIn Profile URL may cause the API request to fail or return no data.
    • Network or authentication errors if the API key is missing, invalid, or expired.
    • Rate limiting by the external API could result in temporary failures.

  • Error messages:

    • "The operation "getPosts" is not supported for Linkedin resource." — indicates a misconfiguration or unsupported operation selection.
    • API error messages returned from the Leadspicker API will be surfaced; ensure the LinkedIn URL is correct and the API key is valid.

  • Resolutions:

    • Verify the LinkedIn URL format and correctness.
    • Check that the API key credential is properly configured and active.
    • If rate limited, wait and retry later or contact the API provider.
