Getting Access to LinkedIn APIs

  • Статья

The LinkedIn API uses OAuth 2.0 for user authorization and API authentication. Applications must be authorized and authenticated before they can fetch data from LinkedIn or get access to member data. This page summarizes the available permissions and partner programs available for accessing LinkedIn APIs. Most permissions and partner programs require explicit approval from LinkedIn. Open Permissions are the only permissions that are available to all developers without special approval.

All permissions listed below are used in either Member Authentication Flow (3-legged) or Application Authentication Flow (2-legged). More about these permission types can be found in Authenticating with OAuth 2.0 Overview.

Open Permissions (Consumer)

The following permissions are available to all developers, and may be added via self-service through the LinkedIn Developer Portal, under the Products tab on your application page. LinkedIn products can be enabled after creating a new application.
