LinkedIn is the record of who works where and what professionals are saying, and it is one of the most closed platforms on the web: the official API is limited to approved partners and the site aggressively blocks anonymous visitors. Through AgentKey your agent reads public LinkedIn data the same way it reads everything else — find_tools, describe_tool, execute_tool — with more than one provider behind the scenes, so one route failing does not stop the task.

​
What you can ask

  • “Summarize what this person has posted on LinkedIn in the last month.”
  • “Get the headline, location and current role from this LinkedIn profile.”
  • “Pull the comments on this post and tell me which companies the commenters work for.”
  • “What has Anthropic’s company page published recently?”
  • “Find open machine-learning engineer jobs in Berlin on LinkedIn.”
  • “Give me the full description of this job posting.”
  • “Which posts has this founder commented on or reacted to lately?”
  • “Compare the posting cadence of these three company pages this quarter.”

​
What’s covered

People
  • Profile by username or by profile URL — name, headline and the other core profile fields
  • A member’s activity, filtered by type: the posts they published, the posts they commented on, the posts they reacted to
  • Offset and continuation-token pagination, so a long history can be walked page by page
Posts
  • Detail for a post or a long-form article
  • Comments sorted by relevance or by most recent, page by page, optionally narrowed to one share of the post
Companies
  • Company profile — the public page’s description and details
  • The posts published on a company page
Jobs
  • Job search
  • Job detail for a single posting, as shown on the job page
A typical task chains these: resolve the person from a profile URL, pull their activity, then fetch the comments on the posts that matter — or search jobs, then open the detail of each shortlisted posting.

How to use it

Pass the request in plain language and let the router pick the tool:
Both English and Chinese phrasing work, and the platform’s usual English and Chinese names all land here. Always describe_tool before executing — parameters and per-call costs differ between providers.
Building with code? The same capability is available as fixed-contract Scenario Methods with automatic provider failover: social.linkedin.post.get, social.linkedin.user.get. Member activity, company pages and jobs are available through the catalog tools above.

FAQ

No. AgentKey holds the upstream access; your agent only needs your AgentKey subscription.
No. Only what a profile, company page or post exposes publicly is available, and every tool is read-only — no connection requests, messages or posting.
Every call goes to LinkedIn at request time, so job search and job detail reflect the listings that are live at that moment.
