Get LinkedIn Profile
Retrieve a LinkedIn profile by provider_id, public slug, or full URL, or omit the identifier to fetch your own profile. Auto-selects Sales Navigator when available, lets you request only the sections you need for lighter responses, and can optionally trigger a profile-view notification to the person. Subject to a 250-per-day view limit.
Example prompt: Pull up the LinkedIn profile for john-doe-123 and summarize their current role and experience

"name": "John Doe",
"headline": "Head of Growth at Acme",
"profile_url": "https://linkedin.com/in/john-doe-123",
"location": "London, UK",
"connection_degree": 2
