HDW LinkedIn Management

Overview

This node integrates with the Horizon Data Wave API to manage LinkedIn accounts and perform various LinkedIn-related operations. Specifically, for the User - Get Profile (Me) operation, it retrieves the current authenticated LinkedIn user's profile information.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

• Automatically fetching the profile details of the authenticated user for personalization or verification.
• Integrating LinkedIn profile data into workflows such as CRM updates, marketing automation, or reporting dashboards.
• Using the profile data as a basis for further LinkedIn interactions like sending connection requests or messaging.

Example: A workflow that triggers on a schedule to fetch the current user's LinkedIn profile and update a database with the latest job title and company.

Properties

Note: For the Get Profile (Me) operation, no additional input properties are required beyond the timeout.

Output

The output JSON contains the LinkedIn profile data of the authenticated user as returned by the Horizon Data Wave API. The structure depends on the API response but typically includes fields such as:

• User identifiers and URNs
• Full name and headline
• Current position and company
• Profile picture URLs
• Other public profile details

If multiple items were returned (not typical for "Get Profile (Me)"), each would be output as a separate JSON object in the array.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for the Horizon Data Wave LinkedIn API.
• The node uses the base URL https://api.horizondatawave.ai to send requests.
• Proper account ID must be present in the credentials.
• The node relies on n8n's HTTP request helper with authentication configured for the API.

Troubleshooting

• Error: No credentials provided!
  Ensure that the API key credential for the Horizon Data Wave LinkedIn API is set up and connected to the node.

• Error: Account ID is missing in credentials!
  Verify that the credentials include a valid account ID required by the API.

• Timeouts or slow responses
  Adjust the "Timeout" property to a higher value if the API takes longer to respond.

• API errors or unexpected responses
  Check the Horizon Data Wave API status and ensure the account has proper permissions.
