LinkedIn Post Reactions API
Scrape LinkedIn Post Reactions data with one API call. Lists the members who reacted to a LinkedIn post as a canonical AuthorList: name, headline, profile URL, avatar and member URN (`author.ext.urn`), with the reaction they left on `author.ext.reaction_type` (filter it with `type`). Each page is 10 reactors; page through with `page`. On a plain call a reactor row carries no follower count, connection count or location: `author.followers` and `author.following` are null on every row. Send `include=profile` and every row is joined, in the same call, to the member's profile lookup (`/v1/linkedin/profile`): `author.followers` becomes the exact follower count and `author.ext.followers_approximate` reads false on every row the lookup filled, whether the row arrived with LinkedIn's rounded bucket or with no count at all, `author.following` is filled with the member's connection count (on LinkedIn a member's `following` is the number of connections), and the location, the joined date (`author.joined_at`), and the country, website, cover image and profile flags on `author.ext` land where the row lacks them. Cost: 10 credits for the list; include=profile holds 4 credits per row and keeps only the rows filled from a fresh lookup, so a call costs at most 50; rows already in cache are free and unfilled rows are refunded. Pass `limit` (1 to 10) to join only the top rows: `limit=3&include=profile` costs at most 22. Time: the lookups run in parallel, about 1 second for 10 rows, up to 3 on a slow second, and never more than 8 seconds. The response carries a `hydration` block itemising rows, lookups, cache hits, credits and milliseconds.

Returns the people who reacted to a LinkedIn post, each with their name, headline, profile URL, and the reaction they left.
Use it to see who liked or praised a post, optionally filtered by type; post/comments covers the people who wrote a comment.

The Post Reactions endpoint gives you structured LinkedIn data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.
Example Request
curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/linkedin/post/reactions?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Ffeed%2Fupdate%2Furn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A7501466755261820928"import requests
response = requests.get(
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/linkedin/post/reactions",
params={
'url': 'https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7501466755261820928',
},
headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
)
data = response.json()const response = await fetch(
"https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/linkedin/post/reactions?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Ffeed%2Fupdate%2Furn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A7501466755261820928",
{
headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" },
},
);
const data = await response.json();Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| url | Yes | Full URL of the LinkedIn post. It has to carry the post's ACTIVITY id, either `https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:<id>` or `https://www.linkedin.com/posts/<slug>-activity-<id>-<code>`. A `urn:li:share:` or `urn:li:ugcPost:` URL names a different id for the same post and is rejected with a 400 before any credits are charged, because it cannot be resolved to the post. Every endpoint that lists posts publishes the activity form as `post.url`, so copy that field rather than rebuilding the URL from `post.id`, which is not always the activity id. |
| page | No | 1-based page number. Defaults to 1. |
| type | No | Filter by kind. See the allowed values. (all | like | praise | empathy | appreciation | interest) |
| include | No | Set to `profile` (one token only) to join every row to the member's profile lookup in this one call: `author.followers` becomes the exact count and `author.ext.followers_approximate` reads false on every row the lookup filled, `author.following` is filled with the member's connection count, and the location, joined date, country, website, cover image and profile flags land where the row lacks them. Holds 4 credits per row and keeps only the rows filled from a fresh lookup; rows already in cache and rows that could not be filled are refunded, so a call costs at most 50 (10 + 4 per row) and the usual bill is lower. Adds about 1 second for 10 rows, up to 3 on a slow second and never more than 8, and nothing when the members are already cached; read `data.hydration` for the rows, the credits held and kept, and the time. (profile) |
| limit | No | Take the top N rows of this page (1 to 10). With `include=profile` it caps both the rows joined and the extra credits: `limit=3&include=profile` costs at most 22. The page cursor still advances past the full page of 10, so the rows past your limit are skipped, not carried to the next page. Without `include=profile` the call stays 10 credits. |
What does the LinkedIn Post Reactions API return?
Every response follows one unified schema. Here is a real, unmodified response body, so you can see the exact fields you get back before spending a credit.
