GET
/api/v1/posts/{postId}/reactions

The reactions: each reactor with LinkedIn's reaction type, a page of limit; a comment's with comment_id. Pass cursor back for the next page; null on the last.

Authorization

X-API-KEY<token>

Your API key from the console (gw_live_…).

In: header

Path Parameters

postId*string

The post's social_id (urn:li:activity:… or urn:li:ugcPost:…), as a post read gives it.

Query Parameters

account_id*string

The LinkedIn account (lg_…) to act as.

Length1 <= length
limit?integer

Reactions per page, 1 to 50. Default 50. A reactor LinkedIn names no id for is left out, so a page can hold fewer.

Range1 <= value <= 50
Default50
cursor?string

The cursor the previous page answered, passed back unchanged, for the next page. Leave it out for the first page; a null cursor means there is no next page. Opaque: its form differs by route.

comment_id?string

A comment's id from this list, or its number alone: the reactions on that comment instead of the post.

A post's comments GET

The post's own comments (replies are a comment's, with `comment_id`), newest first by default, a page of `limit`. Pass `cursor` back for the next page; `null` on the last.

A member's posts GET

Their own posts (no reposts), newest first, a page of `limit`; pass `cursor` back for the next, `null` on the last. A public identifier is resolved to the provider id first. `is_company=true` answers 422: a company's posts are not offered yet.
