Linkup API for LinkedIn

Automate LinkedIn with Linkup

Actions36

Overview

The "Get Sent Invitations" operation of the Linkup API node for LinkedIn allows users to retrieve a list of LinkedIn invitations they have sent. This is useful for managing and tracking outgoing connection requests on LinkedIn, enabling automation workflows that monitor invitation statuses or follow up with recipients.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically fetching all sent invitations to check which are pending.
  • Integrating with CRM systems to log outreach efforts.
  • Triggering reminders or follow-ups based on the status of sent invitations.

Properties

Name Meaning
Invitation Type Type of invitation to filter by (e.g., CONNECTION, ORGANIZATION).
Number of Results Maximum number of results to retrieve in one request.
Start Page The first page number to retrieve (for pagination).
End Page The last page number to retrieve (for pagination).
Country Code Country code used for proxy selection (e.g., FR for France, US for United States).
Timeout Request timeout duration in milliseconds.
Retry Count Number of retry attempts if the request fails.

These properties are grouped under "Linkup Parameters" and "Advanced Options" collections.

Output

The output is a JSON object containing the response from the Linkup API endpoint /network/sent-invitations. It includes:

  • The main data representing the list of sent invitations.
  • A _debug field with details about the request body, headers, endpoint URL, and raw API response for troubleshooting.
  • A _meta field containing metadata such as resource name ("network"), operation name ("getSentInvitations"), timestamp of execution, and node version.
  • The output is paired with the input item index for traceability.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for the Linkup API service.
  • The node uses HTTP POST requests to communicate with the Linkup API at https://api.linkupapi.com/v1.
  • Proper configuration of the API key and optional country code is necessary.
  • Network connectivity to the Linkup API endpoint must be available.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing API Key: If the API key is not configured, the node will throw an error indicating the missing API key. Ensure credentials are set up correctly.
  • Timeouts: Requests may time out if the server is slow or network issues occur. Adjust the "Timeout" property or increase "Retry Count" to mitigate transient failures.
  • Invalid Parameters: Providing invalid values for parameters like country code or invitation type may result in errors or empty responses. Verify parameter correctness.
  • API Errors: Any error messages returned by the Linkup API will be included in the output's error field. Review these messages to understand issues such as rate limits or authentication failures.
