### Notes

* The API supports two post URL formats:
  * Feed updates: `https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:...`
  * share url: `https://www.linkedin.com/posts/..`
* Results are paginated with a maximum of 50 comments per page
* The profile picture URL may be null if not available or if the user has no profile picture
* Connection degree shows your network relationship with the commenter (1st, 2nd, or 3rd degree connection)
* **Pagination Mode vs. Total Results Mode**:
  * **Total Results Mode**: Use the `total_results` parameter to specify how many comments you want (default)
  * **Pagination Mode**: Use `start_page` and `end_page` parameters to fetch specific pages of results
  * Credit usage in pagination mode is based on the number of pages fetched (1 credit per page)
  * When using pagination mode, `total_results` parameter is ignored
* The `total_available_results` field shows the total number of comments available on the post
* Some comment information may be limited based on:
  * Your connection level with the commenter
  * The commenter's privacy settings
  * The post's visibility settings
* Rate limits apply to comment retrieval requests
