Can the LinkedIn API return a list of a user's saved articles?

Question

The LinkedIn docs for the articles API show that I can get a particular article's content etc. by doing a

GET https://api.linkedin.com/v2/originalArticles/{originalArticlesId}

But it's not clear to me where I get that originalArticlesId from. How do I list the articles that any given user has saved?

What does GET https://api.linkedin.com/v2/originalArticles give? – Claustral

I need this too. Did you find a way? – Ritualism

@CanÜrek, no, sadly not – Nagoya

Answer 1

The LinkedIn API does not yet provide that functionality. The closest you can get to what you are looking for is to get the articles published by a particular author.

GET https://api.linkedin.com/v2/originalArticles?q=authors

I think that if you want to have this functionality you will have to do a scraping of the profile of the person who requires this functionality.

Is there any kind of documentation of it not being possible? or is it just a gap in the API? – Nagoya
