Get LinkedIn profile badges

POST /api/v1/get_badges

Deprecated

This endpoint is deprecated and will be removed in future releases. Use get_profile_details as an alternative.

This API allows the authenticated user to retrieve achievement badges associated with a specific LinkedIn profile. These badges may represent accomplishments such as certifications, skills endorsements, volunteer work, or other forms of recognition visible on the target user's public profile.

The profile_id is a unique identifier used by LinkedIn to distinguish individual user profiles. On WeLink, you can obtain the profile_id by calling the /api/v1/get_profile_details API. In the response of this API, the field profile_id is provided. This value should be used as the profile_id when making requests to other WeLink APIs that require a LinkedIn profile reference.
