Overview

Admin endpoints let you programmatically manage your Linked API subscription, connected LinkedIn accounts, and rate limits – everything available in the platform dashboard.

While the main API endpoints (workflows, conversations, statistics) operate on behalf of a specific LinkedIn account, admin endpoints manage your Linked API account itself. They are synchronous (direct request-response, no workflows) and require only the linked-api-token header – no identification-token is needed.

Authentication

Admin endpoints require the linked-api-token header – the same token used for all other API requests. Account-specific operations accept accountId in the request body instead of the identification-token header. You can find your token in the platform dashboard.

Request format

All endpoints use POST method with JSON body. The URL pattern is:

POST https://api.linkedapi.io/admin/<resource>.<action>

Header	Required	Description
`linked-api-token`	Yes	Your Linked API token
`Content-Type`	Yes	`application/json`

  }
