Understanding daily limits

Every connected LinkedIn account has per-category daily caps. These are the defaults:

• Searches: 300 per day (people, company, and post searches share it)
• Profile views: 250 per day
• Messages: 150 per day (regular messages, InMail, forwards, and voice messages share it)
• Invitations: 15 per day
• Posts: 10 per day (create_post and publish_draft share it)
• Engagement: 100 per day (reactions, comments, comment replies, and reposts share it)
• Endorsements: 50 per day
• Follows and unfollows: 50 per day
• Connection removals: 10 per day
• Profile edits: 10 per day

All counters reset at midnight UTC. When a cap is reached, further actions in that category are blocked until the reset.

The daily cap is the only limit on invitations. There is no hourly allowance. You set the cap in Security settings and spend it at your own speed. See 'How invitation sends are spaced' for detail.

Cleanup actions are deliberately not counted. Withdrawing a pending invitation with cancel_invitation and accepting or declining inbound invitations never consume your invitation budget, so tidying up is always possible.

Use get_account to see today's usage and the effective cap for each category at any time. If warm-up is active, the warm-up limit applies whenever it is lower than the normal cap.

You can customize limits per category with manage_outreach_settings using action 'limits', passing a minimum and maximum. Crispy then picks a daily cap inside your range each day, so output varies naturally. For a new account, set ranges below the defaults first and raise them as the account builds history.

These numbers are defaults. You can set a lower cap. For invitations, Crispy rejects a cap above 50 per day. For the other categories in this list, Crispy does not enforce a maximum above the default. LinkedIn's User Agreement section 8.2 prohibits unauthorized automation. The caps do not authorize the activity and do not guarantee against restriction.
