Using LinkedIn API without the Linkedin Partner
It makes business sense for Linkedin to be selective in picking partners because why should they give away their data? The chances are that most companies that apply will not be approved as a Linkedin Partner.
Thankfully, you can achieve the same effects of Linkedin API with Proxycurl's Linkedin API. Even better, Proxycurl's Linkedin API has no rate limits, and you can get an API key immediately.
For the rest of this guide, I will provide two code snippets:
One code snippet for Proxycurl's Linkedin API and
the other for the official Linkedin API.
While you are waiting to be approved as Linkedin Partner, do head over to Proxycurl and get yourself a trial API key so you can get started immediately. or visit
