Warning

Deprecation Notice
The Marketing Version 202310 (Marketing October 2023) and earlier versions (excluding 202306 and 202307) have been sunset. Additionally, the unversioned APIs will be sunset soon. We recommend that you migrate to the versioned APIs as well as migrate to the new Content and Community Management APIs to avoid disruptions. See the Migration page for more details. If you haven’t yet migrated and have questions, submit a request on the LinkedIn Developer Support Portal.

Try in Postman

The Organization Lookup API searches organizations and their profiles.

Unless otherwise noted, the following rules apply when specifying input parameters:

  • All strings are case-insensitive.
  • Multiple words should be joined with a space. The input is URL encoded where spaces are translated to "%20". For example, Apple Inc. is encoded to Apple%20Inc.
  • If a search includes multiple words, the complete string is searched.
  • Wildcards and boolean logic are not supported:
    • *, ?, AND, and OR

For information on finding organizations with partial or incomplete information, see the Company Search documentation.

Permissions

Permission Description
rw_organization_admin Manage organization pages and retrieve reporting data.
r_compliance Retrieve posts, comments, and likes on behalf of an authenticated member for compliance monitoring and archiving. This is a private permission and access is granted to select developers.

Note

Organization lookup API is protected by 3-legged OAuth token. For more information, Authorization Code Flow (3-legged OAuth).

Admin and Non-Admin Access

Important

Some of these API calls require that the authenticated member has the role type ADMINISTRATOR for the requested organization. For information on how to retrieve roles through the API, see Organization Access Control.

APIs that do not require administrative access will only return the following fields:

  • id
  • name
  • localizedName
  • localizedWebsite
  • vanityName
  • logoV2
  • locations
  • primaryOrganizationType

APIs that require administrative access will return all available Organization.

Schema

Find detailed schema information, see Schema Information.

Retrieve Organizations

Use the Organization Lookup API to find organizations using an organization id, vanity name, or email domain.

Organization URNs are in the format urn:li:organization:{organization id} and represent a LinkedIn Company Page.

Retrieve an Administered Organization

You can use the organization ID to look up organization information on behalf of authenticated members with role type ADMINISTRATOR for that organization. API calls with insufficient permissions return 403 Forbidden.

Retrieve Organization Follower Count

The Organization Network Size API provides the ability to retrieve the number of first-degree connections (followers) for any organization.

Sample Request

GET https://api.linkedin.com/rest/networkSizes/urn:li:organization:1234567?edgeType=COMPANY_FOLLOWED_BY_MEMBER

GET https://api.linkedin.com/rest/networkSizes/urn:li:organization:1234567?edgeType=CompanyFollowedByMember

GET https://api.linkedin.com/v2/networkSizes/urn:li:organization:1234567?edgeType=CompanyFollowedByMember

Sample Response

{
  "firstDegreeSize": 219145
}

Note

The ?edgeType= parameter options for CompanyFollowedByMember for the /networkSizes endpoint changes to COMPANY_FOLLOWED_BY_MEMBER starting in v202305. Prior versions (≤ v202304) still utilize CompanyFollowedByMember but the two options are not retrocompatible.

Retrieve Organization

Use the Organization Lookup API to find organizations using an organization ID, parent organization ID, or a vanity name.

Organization URNs are in the format urn:li:organization:{id} and represent LinkedIn Company Pages or LinkedIn Showcase Pages.

Note

urn:li:organizationBrand:XXX" is mapped to urn:li:organization:XXX" as Organization Brand API has been deprecated since Jan 2024 onwards.

Retrieve an Administered Organization

You can use the organization ID to lookup Organization information on behalf of authenticated members with role type ADMINISTRATOR for that brand. API calls with insufficient permissions receive a 403 Forbidden response.

Sample Request
