LINKUP

Interact with LINKUP API for LinkedIn automation

Actions8

Overview

This node integrates with the LINKUP API to automate LinkedIn-related tasks. Specifically, the "Extract Profile Information" operation allows users to extract detailed public profile information from a given LinkedIn profile URL. This is useful for scenarios such as lead generation, recruitment, market research, or enriching contact databases by programmatically retrieving LinkedIn profile data.

For example, a user can input a LinkedIn profile URL and receive structured data about that profile, including professional details, which can then be used in CRM systems or marketing workflows.

Properties

Name	Meaning
Utiliser des credentials personnalisées	Whether to use custom credentials instead of saved ones (fallback option).
LINKUP API Key	Your LINKUP API key from the linkupapi.com dashboard (required if using custom credentials).
URL du profil LinkedIn	The LinkedIn profile URL to extract information from (required).
Login Token	LinkedIn authentication token obtained after login/verify (required if using custom credentials).

Options avancées	Advanced options collection:
- Timeout	Request timeout in milliseconds (default 30000 ms).
- Nombre de tentatives	Number of retry attempts on failure (default 3).

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the extracted LinkedIn profile information returned by the LINKUP API. The output includes:

The full response from the API with profile details.
A _meta field containing metadata such as the operation name, timestamp, and node version.
A _debug field is not present for this operation (only for some others).

No binary data is output by this operation.

Example output structure (simplified):

{
  "json": {
    "profileData": { /* LinkedIn profile fields */ },
    "_meta": {
      "operation": "extractProfileInfo",
      "timestamp": "2024-06-xxTxx:xx:xx.xxxZ",
      "nodeVersion": "1.1.0"
    }
  },
  "pairedItem": {
    "item": 0
  }
}

Dependencies

Requires a valid LINKUP API key credential.
Requires a LinkedIn authentication token (login_token) obtained via prior login and verification steps.
Uses the LINKUP API endpoint at https://api.linkupapi.com/v1/profile/info.
Optional proxy country selection affects request routing.
Network connectivity to LINKUP API service.

Troubleshooting

Invalid Credentials: If the API key or LinkedIn tokens are invalid or missing, the node throws an error indicating invalid credentials. Ensure your API key and LinkedIn login token are correct and up to date.
Rate Limits: Exceeding the API request limit results in a rate limit error. Wait before retrying or reduce request frequency.
Timeouts and Retries: Network issues may cause timeouts. Adjust the "Timeout" and "Nombre de tentatives" properties to increase robustness.
Invalid Requests: Malformed LinkedIn URLs or missing required parameters will cause request errors. Verify the LinkedIn profile URL format.
Use Custom Credentials Option: If saved credentials are corrupted or incomplete, enable "Utiliser des credentials personnalisées" and provide all required fields manually.
