Unipile

Interact with Unipile API

Overview

This node interacts with the Unipile API to retrieve LinkedIn search parameters. Specifically, for the LinkedIn resource and the "Search Parameters" operation, it fetches configurable search parameters based on an account ID and a type of search. This is useful when you want to dynamically obtain or validate search criteria before performing LinkedIn-related queries or filtering data.

Practical examples include:

  • Retrieving available search filters for job postings or profiles linked to a specific LinkedIn account.
  • Dynamically adjusting UI elements or workflows based on the types of search parameters supported by LinkedIn via the Unipile API.

Properties

Name Meaning
Account ID The unique identifier of the LinkedIn account to query against.
Type The category/type of search parameters to retrieve (e.g., jobs, people, companies).
Additional Fields Optional extra parameters:
- Keywords: Keywords to filter job postings.
- Limit: Maximum number of results to return (minimum 1, default 50).

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the list of search parameters retrieved from the Unipile API for the specified LinkedIn account and search type. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes parameter names, possible values, and descriptions that can be used to build or refine LinkedIn searches.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Unipile API.
  • Needs an API key credential configured in n8n to authenticate requests.
  • The base URL for the API is taken from the credential configuration.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Account ID or Type: The node requires these fields; ensure they are provided and valid.
  • API authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and has necessary permissions.
  • Empty or unexpected responses: Check if the account ID corresponds to a valid LinkedIn account and that the type matches supported search parameter categories.
  • Limit value issues: Ensure the limit is a positive integer (minimum 1).
