Recruiter

With recruiter: true, pass the profile_urn (urn:li:ts_profile:…) of a Search People Recruiter result. You get the same shape as a search result, plus contact info when LinkedIn exposes it, summary, follower count and the seat’s own counters on that person. include_activity: true adds their recent activity.
The Recruiter lookup only knows profile_urns (the bare AEMAA… id works too). A public identifier, a profile URL or a classic ACoAA… URN is refused with INVALID_PARAMS (400), no credit, nothing sent to LinkedIn. To read a profile by its public identifier, call this action with the LinkedIn account (the seat’s parent_account_id) instead.
