Overview
This node integrates with the Horizon Data Wave LinkedIn API to retrieve information about LinkedIn groups. Specifically, the "Get Group" operation fetches detailed information about a LinkedIn group using its URN or URL. This is useful for workflows that need to gather data on specific LinkedIn groups for analysis, reporting, or automation purposes.
Common scenarios:
- Automatically retrieving metadata and details of a LinkedIn group for CRM enrichment.
- Monitoring group information as part of social media analytics.
- Integrating LinkedIn group data into marketing or sales automation pipelines.
Example:
You provide the LinkedIn group’s URN or URL, and the node returns comprehensive information about that group, such as its name, description, member count, and other relevant metadata.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Group | The LinkedIn group identifier, specified as a URN or URL. |
| Timeout | Maximum time in seconds to wait for the API response before timing out. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing the LinkedIn group information retrieved from the API. The structure depends on the API response but typically includes fields such as group name, description, membership details, and other metadata related to the group.
If multiple items are returned (though unlikely for a single group fetch), each item is output as a separate JSON object.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the Horizon Data Wave LinkedIn API.
- Requires configuration of an API authentication credential (an API key or token) within n8n to authenticate requests.
- The base URL for API requests is
https://api.horizondatawave.ai.
Troubleshooting
- Timeouts: If the request times out, consider increasing the "Timeout" property value.
- Invalid Group Identifier: Providing an incorrect or malformed group URN/URL will result in an error. Verify the group identifier format.
- Authentication Errors: Ensure the API credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests may be throttled by the API; implement delays or retries if needed.
- Error Messages: The node returns error messages with details from the API response when available. Review these messages to diagnose issues.
