This endpoint consumes **1 credit** per request. Ignore this if you're on per-seat pricing: usage is unlimited. Your API key for authentication. The unique identifier of the account to use. ## Get event `action: "get_event"` Returns the details of a LinkedIn event from its URL, URN or id: when it starts and ends (as UTC instants and as wall-clock times in the event's own time zone), whether it is upcoming, ongoing or past, who organizes it, where it happens or streams, and the account's own status towards it (invited, attending, host). ### Request Must be `"get_event"`. The event: URL (`https://www.linkedin.com/events/launch7315105458780465155/`), `urn:li:fsd_professionalEvent:…` or the numeric event id. `event_id` is accepted as an alias. ### Response Indicates whether the request was successful. Numeric id of the event. `urn:li:fsd_professionalEvent:…`. Event title. Event description. Public URL of the event page. The slug in the event URL. Start, ISO 8601 UTC (e.g. `2026-10-12T11:00:00Z`). End, ISO 8601 UTC. `null` when the organizer set no end time. Start as a wall-clock time in `time_zone` (`2026-10-12T13:00:00`, no offset). End as a wall-clock time in `time_zone`. IANA time zone of the event (`Europe/Paris`). The time range as LinkedIn displays it (`Oct 12, 2026, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CEST`). `FUTURE`, `ONGOING` or `PAST`. Whether the organizer cancelled the event. Private events are visible to invitees only. When `true`, only the organizer and co-hosts can invite. Registration or streaming link outside LinkedIn, when set. LinkedIn Live stream URL, when set. The streaming tool for a LinkedIn Live event. Venue details for an in-person event. Postal address for an in-person event (`line1`, `line2`, `city`, `postalCode`, `country`…), only the fields LinkedIn filled. Member id of the organizing person (`ACoAA…`). `urn:li:fsd_profile:…` of the organizing person. Public slug of the organizing person. Name of the organizing person. Numeric id of the organizing company page, when a page organizes. `urn:li:fsd_company:…` of the organizing page. Slug of the organizing page. Name of the organizing page. Co-hosts: `profile_id`, `profile_urn`, `public_identifier`, `name`, `headline`, `role`, `state`. Announced speakers, same shape (`role` is `SPEAKER`, `state` is `APPROVED` once the speaker accepted). Number of attendees when LinkedIn shows it. Whether the attendee list is visible. The account's status towards the event: `INVITED`, `INTERESTED` (attending), `NOT_INTERESTED`, or `null`. `true` when the account organizes or co-hosts the event. LinkedIn's own flag for the account on this event. Indicative only: on a public event LinkedIn still accepts invitations to 1st-degree connections when it is `false` (see [Invite to event](#invite-to-event)). URN of the event's feed post, usable with [Get Post](/api-reference/v2/content/get). Cover image URL. When the event was created, ISO 8601 UTC. The action that was performed (`"get_event"`). The account ID used for the request. Number of credits consumed (1). ISO 8601 timestamp of the response. ```json 200 theme={null} { "success": true, "data": { "event_id": "7515337029308538883", "event_urn": "urn:li:fsd_professionalEvent:7515337029308538883", "name": "Product launch", "description": "Join us for the live walkthrough.", "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/events/productlaunch7515337029308538883/", "vanity_name": "productlaunch7515337029308538883", "start_at": "2026-10-12T11:00:00Z", "end_at": "2026-10-12T12:00:00Z", "start_local": "2026-10-12T13:00:00", "end_local": "2026-10-12T14:00:00", "time_zone": "Europe/Paris", "display_time": "Oct 12, 2026, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CEST", "lifecycle_state": "FUTURE", "cancelled": false, "private_event": false, "organizer_invite_only": false, "external_url": null, "streaming_url": null, "broadcast_tool": null, "venue": null, "address": { "country": "FR", "city": "Paris", "line1": "10 rue de la Paix" }, "organizer": { "profile_id": "ACoAAGOTIYIBlqheYWb-Mm6ygh4ErjKMId2CNMo", "profile_urn": "urn:li:fsd_profile:ACoAAGOTIYIBlqheYWb-Mm6ygh4ErjKMId2CNMo", "public_identifier": "douglas-collombat-8aa5863a7", "name": "Douglas Collombat", "company_id": null, "company_urn": null, "company_universal_name": null, "company_name": null }, "co_hosts": [], "speakers": [ { "profile_id": "ACoAAAgL-5IBkwG9UY53vuhg5dPPBKae0IcvZTQ", "profile_urn": "urn:li:fsd_profile:ACoAAAgL-5IBkwG9UY53vuhg5dPPBKae0IcvZTQ", "public_identifier": "caffeinatedtejal", "name": "Tejal Rives", "headline": "Recruiting Leader | Founder of Get Selected", "role": "SPEAKER", "state": "APPROVED" } ], "attendee_count": 12, "attendee_visibility": true, "viewer_status": "INVITED", "viewer_is_host": false, "can_invite": false, "post_urn": "urn:li:ugcPost:7515337032559292416", "background_image_url": null, "created_at": "2026-10-12T09:06:16Z" }, "metadata": { "action": "get_event", "account_id": "your-account-id", "credits_consumed": 1, "timestamp": "2026-10-12T14:02:11Z" } } ``` ```json 400 — Unknown or deleted event theme={null} { "success": false, "error": { "code": "INVALID_PARAMS", "message": "Event not found" }, "metadata": { "action": "get_event", "credits_consumed": 1, "timestamp": "2026-10-12T14:02:11Z" } } ``` ```json 400 — Missing event theme={null} { "success": false, "error": { "code": "INVALID_PARAMS", "message": "event_url or event_id is required" }, "metadata": { "action": "get_event", "credits_consumed": 0, "timestamp": "2026-10-12T14:02:11Z" } } ``` ## Invite to event `action: "invite_to_event"` Invites one or more members to a LinkedIn event, the same way the **Invite** button on the event page does. LinkedIn only lets you invite your **1st-degree connections**. On a public event any member can invite their connections; on a private or organizer-only event, the organizer and co-hosts. The event is read first: a deleted or cancelled event is refused before any invitation is sent. Up to 50 profiles per call. Each profile is resolved first; a profile LinkedIn cannot find is reported in `results` and does not block the others. ### Request Must be `"invite_to_event"`. The event: URL (`https://www.linkedin.com/events/7315105458780465155/`), `urn:li:fsd_professionalEvent:…` or the numeric event id. `event_id` is accepted as an alias. The people to invite (max 50): profile URLs, public slugs, member ids (`ACoAA…`) or `urn:li:fsd_profile:…`. A single `profile_url` string is accepted for one person. ### Response Indicates whether the request was successful. Numeric id of the event. `urn:li:fsd_professionalEvent:…` of the event. Title of the event. How many of the profiles were invited. One entry per profile given, in order. The profile as you passed it. Resolved member id (`ACoAA…`), when found. Resolved `urn:li:fsd_profile:…`, when found. `invited`, or `error`. Id of the created invitation, as a string (19 digits). Inviting someone already invited returns the existing invitation. `urn:li:fsd_invitation:…` of the invitation. Why this person was not invited (only on `error`). LinkedIn's own refusal code for this person, when it gives one (e.g. already invited, already attending). The action that was performed (`"invite_to_event"`). The account ID used for the request. Number of credits consumed (1). ISO 8601 timestamp of the response. ```json 200 theme={null} { "success": true, "data": { "event_id": "7315105458780465155", "event_urn": "urn:li:fsd_professionalEvent:7315105458780465155", "event_name": "Product launch", "invited_count": 1, "results": [ { "profile": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-doe/", "profile_id": "ACoAAGOTIYIBlqheYWb-Mm6ygh4ErjKMId2CNMo", "profile_urn": "urn:li:fsd_profile:ACoAAGOTIYIBlqheYWb-Mm6ygh4ErjKMId2CNMo", "status": "invited", "invitation_id": "7515337837941141504", "invitation_urn": "urn:li:fsd_invitation:7515337837941141504" }, { "profile": "no-such-person-xyz", "status": "error", "message": "Profile not found" } ] }, "metadata": { "action": "invite_to_event", "account_id": "your-account-id", "credits_consumed": 1, "timestamp": "2026-10-12T14:02:11Z" } } ``` ```json 400 — Deleted event theme={null} { "success": false, "error": { "code": "INVALID_PARAMS", "message": "Event not found" }, "metadata": { "action": "invite_to_event", "credits_consumed": 1, "timestamp": "2026-10-12T14:02:11Z" } } ``` ```json 400 — Account cannot invite to this event theme={null} { "success": false, "error": { "code": "INVALID_PARAMS", "message": "LinkedIn refused the invitation: this account cannot invite people to this event." }, "metadata": { "action": "invite_to_event", "credits_consumed": 1, "timestamp": "2026-10-12T14:02:11Z" } } ``` ```json 400 — Missing params theme={null} { "success": false, "error": { "code": "INVALID_PARAMS", "message": "profiles is required: a list of profile URLs, slugs or member ids (or profile_url for one)" }, "metadata": { "action": "invite_to_event", "credits_consumed": 0, "timestamp": "2026-10-12T14:02:11Z" } } ``` This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
