Integrate your application with the LinkedIn API
🚀 Quickstart
Connect to LinkedIn with Tenklo and see data flow in 2 minutes.
In Tenklo (free signup), go to Integrations -> Configure New Integration -> LinkedIn.
Go to Connections -> Add Test Connection -> Authorize, then log in to LinkedIn. Later, you'll let your users do the same directly from your app.
Let's make your first request to the LinkedIn API (fetch the current member's profile). Replace the placeholders below with your Environment API key, integration ID, and connection ID:
curl "https://api.tenklo.dev/proxy/v2/userinfo" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-API-KEY>" \
-H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
-H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"Or fetch credentials with the Node SDK or API.
✅ You're connected! Check the Logs tab in Tenklo to inspect requests.
Follow our Auth implementation guide to integrate Tenklo in your app.
