  • engage with leads and prospects from directly within your application

Read on to learn more about the UI and API-based services that can help you maximize sales performance for your customers.

Display Services

Sales professionals have unique informational needs at different stages of the sales process. Display Services offers a robust set of UI modules for embedding within external applications via iframe or JavaScript SDK to enrich workflow experiences with LinkedIn identity and insights. Display Services modules allow viewing LinkedIn profiles and accounts, displaying recent activity and posts, and connecting and sending messages (including InMail) to leads. External applications can also enrich UI presentations with LinkedIn profile photos and links to Sales Navigator profiles with the Profile Associations API.

Analytics Services offers a bulk export API to retrieve activities performed by sales teams, as well as other metadata like a seat holder's daily Social Selling Index, total connections, total leads saved, and other metrics.
