The Marketing Sample Application provides ready-to-use code that you can use to try out RESTful API calls to LinkedIn's OAuth and marketing APIs. For example, you can use the sample application to fetch an authenticated user's ad account and role profile to confirm access. This version of the sample application is based on Java. In addition, the sample application code is scalable and customizable so that you can try different application configurations. The sample application is your first step in your development journey using the marketing APIs. The below image displays the marketing sample application:
