## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability basebuilder-linkedin-data-api-8a471ddb -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the LinkedIn profile data for 'https://www.linkedin.com/in/johndoe' — I need their work history, skills, and current job title?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured LinkedIn data (profiles, companies, posts, jobs) programmatically and want a single unified hub that covers 19 LinkedIn data types via one POST endpoint with per-call micropayment pricing — especially useful for sales enrichment, recruitment workflows, or competitive research agents that need fresh LinkedIn data without managing LinkedIn API credentials directly.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or private LinkedIn URL returns empty or error response
- LinkedIn rate limiting may cause intermittent failures
- Profile not found returns null or 404-equivalent data
- Incorrect data type parameter returns wrong dataset
- Stale or cached data may not reflect recent profile updates
- Payment failure via x402 protocol prevents endpoint access
