Begin real-time monitoring for a registered LinkedIn account to receive webhook notifications.
Monitoring must be explicitly started after creating an account. Only active accounts will send webhooks.
Credit Usage: Starting monitoring will consume 10 credits per day (1 credit every 144 minutes) for this account. This feature is extremely powerful for real-time LinkedIn messaging.

Notes

  • Starting monitoring establishes a persistent connection to LinkedIn
  • Webhooks will be sent to the configured webhook URL in real-time
  • The system automatically handles reconnections if the connection drops
  • Each account maintains its own monitoring process
  • Credit consumption begins immediately when monitoring starts
  • Stopping and restarting monitoring will not affect daily credit usage
