Call the LinkedIn search people API for JSON. From 1 credit per call. * **Endpoint:** `linkedin.people.search` * **Returns:** `data` has `results`. * **Cost:** 1 credit per 10 results, plus 1 credit per result that comes back with details (28 credits at most). Failed calls cost nothing. * **Paging:** No. Results come with profile details when LinkedIn shows them publicly. A result without details costs no extra credit. ## Example ```typescript TypeScript icon="https://mintcdn.com/sirathic/7E4w9-IC4ysabjfc/images/icons/typescript.svg?fit=max&auto=format&n=7E4w9-IC4ysabjfc&q=85&s=d8272a85e64145620f1fbbfcf7932986" theme={null} import { Stophy } from "stophy"; const stophy = new Stophy({ apiKey: process.env.STOPHY_API_KEY }); const result = await stophy.linkedin.people.search({ title: "Head of Marketing", query: "SaaS" }); console.log(result.data.results); ``` ```python Python icon="python" theme={null} from stophy import Stophy stophy = Stophy() # reads STOPHY_API_KEY result = stophy.linkedin.people.search(title="Head of Marketing", query="SaaS") print(result["data"]["results"]) ``` ```bash cURL icon="terminal" theme={null} curl -X POST https://api.stophy.dev/v1/linkedin/people/search \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $STOPHY_API_KEY" \ -H "content-type: application/json" \ -d '{"title":"Head of Marketing","query":"SaaS"}' ``` ```bash CLI icon="square-terminal" theme={null} stophy linkedin people search SaaS --title "Head of Marketing" ``` ## OpenAPI ````yaml api-reference/openapi.json POST /v1/linkedin/people/search openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Stophy API version: '1' description: >- Every endpoint is a POST that takes its input as a JSON object body. Unknown fields are rejected with 400. Responses leave out empty values: null, empty strings, empty objects and empty nested lists are not sent. x-credits is what one call costs. Every call costs the same, whatever it returns, unless an operation's description sets a price scale. Then x-credits is the lowest price and x-credits-max the highest. When a response has a cursor, send it back with the same input to get the next page. servers: - url: https://api.stophy.dev security: - apiKey: [] paths: /v1/linkedin/people/search: post: summary: >- Find public LinkedIn profiles by job title, company and location, with their details description: >- Costs 1 credit per 10 results, plus 1 credit per result that comes back with details. operationId: linkedinPeopleSearch requestBody: required: true content: application/json: schema: type: object properties: limit: default: 10 description: How many results to return, up to 25. type: integer minimum: 1 maximum: 25 query: description: Free words to match, like a skill or industry. type: string minLength: 1 maxLength: 120 title: description: Current job title, like Head of Marketing. type: string minLength: 1 maxLength: 120 company: description: Current company, like Shopify. type: string minLength: 1 maxLength: 120 location: description: City or region shown on the profile, like Toronto. type: string minLength: 1 maxLength: 120 additionalProperties: false example: title: Head of Marketing query: SaaS responses: '200': description: The data, and the credits this call used. headers: X-Request-ID: $ref: '#/components/headers/RequestId' x-credits-used: $ref: '#/components/headers/CreditsUsed' X-RateLimit-Limit: $ref: '#/components/headers/RateLimitLimit' X-RateLimit-Remaining: $ref: '#/components/headers/RateLimitRemaining' X-RateLimit-Reset: $ref: '#/components/headers/RateLimitReset' x-cache: $ref: '#/components/headers/Cache' x-cache-age: $ref: '#/components/headers/CacheAge' content: application/json: schema: type: object required: - success - data - creditsUsed - requestId properties: success: const: true data: type: object additionalProperties: false properties: results: type: array items: type: object additionalProperties: false properties: profileUrl: type: string format: uri name: type: string headline: type: string title: type: string company: type: string location: type: string education: type: string details: type: object additionalProperties: false properties: profileId: type: string headline: type: string location: type: string about: type: string followers: type: integer minimum: -9007199254740991 maximum: 9007199254740991 roles: type: array items: type: object additionalProperties: false properties: title: type: string company: type: string companyUrl: type: string format: uri from: type: string to: type: string isCurrent: type: boolean required: - isCurrent education: type: array items: type: object additionalProperties: false properties: school: type: string degree: type: string schoolUrl: type: string format: uri from: type: string to: type: string required: [] required: [] position: type: integer minimum: -9007199254740991 maximum: 9007199254740991 required: - profileUrl - position required: - results creditsUsed: type: integer requestId: type: string 4XX: $ref: '#/components/responses/Error' 5XX: $ref: '#/components/responses/Error' components: headers: RequestId: description: The request id.
