LinkedIn Company By Domain API

Returns the LinkedIn company page that owns a website domain: name, description, follower count, headquarters, website, logo, and numeric company id.

GET /v1/linkedin/company/by-domain

Last updated November 2026Maintained by the SocialCrawl team

When to use the LinkedIn Company By Domain API

Use it when you have a company website rather than a LinkedIn page URL. company looks up the same record from a page URL.

From the API reference

Returns the LinkedIn company page that owns a public website domain, as the same canonical Author /v1/linkedin/company returns from a page URL: author.id (the numeric company_id the other /company/* endpoints take), username, display_name, bio, avatar_url, followers, location, verified, and the About tab in author.ext (website, employee_count, headquarters, locations[], industries[], specialities[]). Pass microsoft.com or https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/: the host is extracted before the lookup. A page is returned only when its own website is the domain you passed (a subdomain such as careers.fedex.com counts), so a company with a similar name is never returned in its place. A domain with no LinkedIn company page answers 404 RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND with your credits refunded; for those, try /v1/linkedin/search/companies with the company name. A 502 or 504 is a transient upstream failure, also refunded, and is worth one retry. author.ext.cover_url can be null on this endpoint.
