FAQ
Frequently asked questions
No. LinkedIn does not provide an official API for account control and data retrieval. Linked API is an independent product built to solve that, and is not affiliated with, authorized by, endorsed by, or sponsored by LinkedIn Corporation.
Linked API works with any programming language because it operates through regular HTTP protocol. Additionally, we provide an official Node.js SDK, CLI tool, and MCP server for AI assistants to simplify integration.
Every action runs in a real, dedicated cloud browser at human-like speed, from a device profile matched to you. It works through your own account the way you would – a real browser and natural pacing, not headless scripts or raw HTTP requests.
Most account issues come from spam-like behavior or exceeding LinkedIn's limits. Linked API is built to prevent exactly that: human-like pacing and rate limits you set for every action type keep your activity in a safe range.
No, we never see or store your LinkedIn credentials. They are used only once, by you, during the account connection process in our cloud browser.
