LinkedIn

Integrate your application with the LinkedIn API

🚀 Quickstart

Connect to LinkedIn with Nango and see data flow in 2 minutes.

1. Create the integration

   In Nango (free signup), go to Integrations -> Configure New Integration -> LinkedIn.

2. Authorize LinkedIn

   Go to Connections -> Add Test Connection -> Authorize, then log in to LinkedIn. Later, you’ll let your users do the same directly from your app.

3. Call the LinkedIn API

   Let’s make your first request to the LinkedIn API (fetch the current member’s profile). Replace the placeholders below with your secret key, integration ID, and connection ID:

   cURL

   curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/v2/userinfo" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-SECRET-KEY>" \
     -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
     -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"
   

   Or fetch credentials with the Node SDK or API.

   ✅ You’re connected! Check the Logs tab in Nango to inspect requests.
