AI-generated

Summary

Endorse a specific skill of a LinkedIn 1st-degree connection by providing their LinkedIn profile URL and the exact skill name as shown on their profile. The endorsement request is processed asynchronously, requiring a subsequent Wait node configured to resume on webhook call to receive the result.

Inputs

  • Person URL (required) — The public or hashed LinkedIn URL of the person whose skill you want to endorse.
  • Skill Name (required) — The exact name of the skill to endorse on the person's profile, ignoring letter case and extra spaces. The skill name must match the profile owner's language and is limited to 200 characters.

Output shape

an asynchronous result delivered via a webhook; no immediate synchronous output

This operation returns results asynchronously. To capture results, add a Wait node immediately after it and set its 'Resume' field to 'On Webhook Call'. Without the Wait node, the workflow will not receive the endorsement result.

Examples

Example 1: Endorse 'Project Management' skill for a 1st-degree connection with LinkedIn URL 'https://www\.linkedin\.com/in/john\-doe'

Set 'Person URL' to 'https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-doe' and 'Skill Name' to 'Project Management'. Add a Wait node after this node configured to resume on webhook call to receive the endorsement confirmation.
