linkedin.profile_posts_archive

beta 143 credits needs a pack

A LinkedIn member's post history, capped at 10 posts per call at a flat price.

GET /v1/linkedin/profile_posts_archive

What you get#

A list of LinkedIn results in Onekey's unified shape, in data (an array). An empty array is a normal, successful answer and is charged like any other; a source that reports "nothing found" as an error returns a free 404 not_found instead.

Also known as: /linkedin/profile/posts/archive on APIs that nest their paths. See Alternatives and equivalents.

What it costs#

143 credits for a fresh fetch, charged only when it succeeds.
Free when served from cache (0.2 credit for a cached response over 100 KB).
Free if the request is invalid (never charged) or the source fails or reports not found (refunded).

Parameters#

Name	Type	Required	Default	What it is	Constraints
`url`	string	yes	(required)	LinkedIn profile URL of the member	max 200 chars; must match `https://([a-z]{2,3}\.)?linkedin\.com/in/[A-Za-z0-9%_-]{1,100}/?`; trimmed

Field mapping#

How this endpoint's source fields become Onekey's unified schema. Fields the source lacks come back as null.

Source path	Onekey field	Transform
`id`	`content.id`	-
`text`	`content.text`	-
`url`	`content.url`	`safeUrl`
`publishedAt`	`content.createdAt`	`toIsoDate`
`likes`	`engagement.likes`	`toNumber`
`comments`	`engagement.comments`	`toNumber`
`shares`	`engagement.shares`	`toNumber`

Caching and freshness#

Fresh for about 2 minutes. Repeat calls in that window are served from cache and are free.
Between 2 minutes and 15 minutes the cached copy is still served instantly and marked stale: true while Onekey refreshes it in the background.
If the source is down when a refresh is needed, the last copy can be served for up to 1 hour more (marked stale).
A "not found" is remembered for 1 minute and is free.
The cache is shared across all customers, which is what keeps repeat calls cheap.

What can go wrong#

422	`invalid_params`	Fix the parameters using the table above. Free.
429	`rate_limited`	Wait `Retry-After` seconds, then retry.
