How do I see who reacted to a LinkedIn post?
Send a GET request to /v1/linkedin/post/reactions with the post URL in the url parameter. SocialCrawl returns the list of people who reacted, each with their profile and the specific reaction type they left.
Which reaction types does the API return?
The six LinkedIn reaction types: like, celebrate, support, love, insightful, and funny. Each reactor in the list carries their own reaction type, so you can segment an audience by how they responded.
Can I filter LinkedIn reactions by type?
Yes. Pass the type parameter (for example type=insightful) to return only the people who left that reaction. Omit it to get every reactor across all six types.
How much does the LinkedIn Post Reactions API cost?
Each page costs 10 credits on the premium tier, no matter how many reactors come back. Listing individual reactors is richer than aggregate counts, which is why it sits on the premium tier. New accounts get 100 free credits.
Can I use post reactions for lead generation?
Yes. The people who reacted to a relevant post are a warm audience, so sales teams pull reactors from a competitor's or industry post to build targeted prospect lists of people already engaged with the topic.
How is this different from reaction counts on the post endpoint?
The /v1/linkedin/post endpoint returns aggregate reaction counts, while this endpoint returns the individual people behind those reactions and their types. Use this when you need who reacted, not just how many.
