# LinkedIn Profile Complete API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/linkedin/profile-complete)

> Returns a LinkedIn member's full background in one premium call, in place of `/v1/linkedin/profile` plus `/v1/linkedin/profile/experiences`, `/profile/educations`, `/profile/skills` and `/profile/recommendations`. Two keys carry it in SocialCrawl's own shapes. `author` is the same Author object `/v1/linkedin/profile` returns (`username`, `display_name`, `bio`, `location`, `avatar_url` and the `ext` flags, `urn` and `member_id` included); `followers` and `following` are null because this call reports no counts. `background` holds `summary` (the About text, or null) and five arrays whose items match the matching `/v1/linkedin/profile/*` endpoint item for item: `experiences` (`title`, `description`, `location`, `date` such as `{start: "Apr 2025", end: "Present"}`, `employment_type`, `skills`, `company` with `id`, `name`, `url` and `logo`), `educations` (`id`, `school`, `date`, `degree`), `skills` (`skill`, `is_passed_skill_assessment`), `recommendations` (received) and `given_recommendations` (`text`, `date`, `type`, `recommender`). A leaf this call does not carry is null rather than missing, for example a role's `skills` and a recommender's `urn`, and `educations` is an empty array when the member lists none. Every other top-level key (`firstName`, `fullPositions`, `languages`, `projects` and the rest) is the original packed record, kept unchanged for compatibility; languages and projects are only available there.

TL;DR: `GET /v1/linkedin/profile/complete` costs 10 credits per call and returns SocialCrawl's unified JSON schema. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.
