## 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-people-search-scraper-x402-4a25563e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search LinkedIn for up to 50 senior product managers currently at Stripe or Square, based in San Francisco, and return their names, titles, profile URLs, and current companies — enriching the full profiles where possible.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured LinkedIn profile data at scale for recruiting, sales prospecting, or competitive research and want pay-per-call pricing with no charge for failed or empty runs. Prefer it over manual LinkedIn searches or full scraping platforms when you need quick, targeted people searches filtered by title, company, school, or seniority, and when direct profile URL extraction is also needed.

## Known failure modes

- Empty results returned (0 items) if search criteria are too narrow or LinkedIn indexing is sparse for the query — not charged
- Partial profile data when enrichProfiles is false or profile pages are blocked
- Location field may be null for partial search cards that lack visible location
- Session cookie may be rejected or expired if provided, limiting discovery
- Rate limits or blocking from LinkedIn may result in fewer results than maxResults requested
- If all profiles are blocked during enrichment, flagged partial search rows are returned instead

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

A JSON object with a count field and an items array; each item contains the person's name, job title, current company, location, schools, profile URL, languages, and summary — sourced from indexed public search cards, optionally enriched with full profile data if enrichProfiles is true.
