Send a Connection Request in LinkedIn

This API allows the authenticated user to send a connection request to another LinkedIn user, initiating a potential professional relationship.

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.

You can optionally include a message parameter to personalize the connection request with a note. If provided, this message will be sent along with the request on LinkedIn.
