FAQ
Frequently asked questions

You cannot be blocked simply for using Linked API – it operates seamlessly within LinkedIn's environment. However, accounts can still be blocked for spam behavior, exceeding LinkedIn's limits, or suspicious activity. We provide configurable daily, weekly, and monthly action limits to help you stay safe.
