## 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 linkedin-data-scraper-alt-99e9e34d -d '<json body>'
```

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

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to extract LinkedIn profile or company data programmatically without the official LinkedIn API, especially for lead enrichment, recruiting research, or competitive analysis. The 'alt' variant may offer a fallback route when the primary LinkedIn scraper is rate-limited or blocked. Prefer this over manual lookup when processing multiple profiles or automating sales/recruiting workflows.

## Known failure modes

- LinkedIn profile not found or URL invalid — returns empty or error result
- LinkedIn anti-scraping measures block the request — returns failure or partial data
- Private or restricted profiles may return limited data
- Rate limiting on the scraper backend causing timeouts
- Malformed input URL causing parsing errors
