Linkup API for LinkedIn

Automate LinkedIn with Linkup

Actions36

Overview

This node integrates with the Linkup API to automate LinkedIn-related activities. Specifically, for the Company resource and the Get Company Information operation, it retrieves detailed information about a LinkedIn company based on its LinkedIn URL.

Typical use cases include:

  • Enriching CRM or marketing databases with up-to-date company data from LinkedIn.
  • Automating business intelligence workflows by fetching company profiles.
  • Integrating LinkedIn company data into sales or recruitment pipelines.

For example, you can input a LinkedIn company URL like https://www.linkedin.com/company/stripe/ and receive structured company information such as name, industry, size, location, and other relevant details.

Properties

Name Meaning
LinkedIn Company URL The full LinkedIn URL of the target company (e.g., https://www.linkedin.com/company/stripe/). This identifies which company's information to retrieve.
Country Code A two-letter country code used for proxy selection when making the API request (e.g., FR for France, US for United States). Helps route requests appropriately.
Timeout (Advanced Option) Maximum time in milliseconds to wait for the API response before timing out. Default is 30000 ms (30 seconds).
Retry Count (Advanced Option) Number of times to retry the request if it fails due to transient errors. Default is 3 retries.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the company information returned by the Linkup API. The output includes:

  • The main company data fields as provided by the API (such as company name, description, industry, size, location, etc.).
  • A _debug object containing:
    • requestBody: The exact payload sent to the API.
    • requestHeaders: HTTP headers used in the request.
    • endpoint: The API endpoint called.
    • apiResponse: The raw response from the API.
  • A _meta object with metadata including:
    • resource: The resource type (company).
    • operation: The operation performed (getCompanyInfo).
    • timestamp: The timestamp of execution.
    • nodeVersion: The version of the node implementation.

If an error occurs, the output JSON will contain an error field describing the issue along with resource and operation metadata.

The node does not output binary data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active Linkup API account and a valid API key credential configured in n8n.
  • The node uses the Linkup API endpoint at https://api.linkupapi.com/v1/companies/info.
  • Requires network access to the Linkup API service.
  • Optional: Proxy routing based on the country code parameter.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing API Key Error: If the API key credential is not set or invalid, the node throws an error indicating the missing API key. Ensure your Linkup API credentials are properly configured in n8n.
  • Timeouts: Requests may timeout if the API is slow or unreachable. Adjust the "Timeout" advanced option to a higher value if needed.
  • Invalid Company URL: Providing an incorrect or malformed LinkedIn company URL may result in an error or empty response. Verify the URL format.
  • Country Code Issues: Using an unsupported or incorrect country code might affect proxy routing and cause failures. Use standard two-letter country codes.
  • API Rate Limits: The Linkup API may enforce rate limits; repeated rapid calls could lead to temporary blocking. Implement retry logic or reduce call frequency.
