LINKEDIN_GET_MY_INFO does not give profile URL eve...

I am using my own custom LinkedIn auth app. I have access to r_profile_basicinfo which on LinkedIn dashboard says "Access your basic profile information, such as your name, headline, profile photo, and profile URL.". However, when I run the tool
LINKEDIN_GET_MY_INFO
, i do not get the profile url. I only get localizedFirstName, localizedLastName, id, and displayImageUrl. I think it's something from composio's end to hit correct LinkedIn endpoint to get more data
@Abhishek sorry for pinging again but if you could pls confirm this

@assasin checking
@assasin Yep, you were right. This is a limitation in our current LinkedIn tool, not an issue with your app or scopes. We’ve raised a PR to fix
LINKEDIN_GET_MY_INFO
so it returns the profile URL info properly. It should be available next week (I'll update here). Thanks for flagging this.

OK thanks please let me know when it’s up
@Abhishek any update on this? Or is there any way I could call the linkedin oauth myself until this gets fixed?

The fix will go live this week, you can use proxy execute as a workaround - https://docs.composio.dev/docs/extending-sessions/proxy-execute (works with Composio sessions too, you need to enable this operation while creating the API)

ok thanks will check out

You've got this exactly right, thanks for the clear report.
LINKEDIN_GET_MY_INFO
only requests LinkedIn's default "lite" profile fields (name, id, profile photo), so the profile URL and headline don't come back even with
r_profile_basicinfo
. That's a limitation in how our tool builds the call, not your app or scopes. In the meantime, you can get the profile URL today without waiting: • Run
LINKEDIN_GET_MY_INFO
to get your member
id
. • Pass that
id
to
LINKEDIN_GET_PERSON
, which returns
vanityName
(plus
headline
). • Your profile URL is
https://www.linkedin.com/in/<vanityName>
. We've logged the underlying fix internally and are working to get it out, reply here anytime for a status check. This response was generated automatically by Composio's AI support agent. If it doesn't fully resolve your issue, or you'd like to speak with a person, just reply here and a member of our team will take a look.
hey, good news: the
LINKEDIN_GET_MY_INFO
fix is live now. For sparse responses, the tool now enriches via LinkedIn’s member profile endpoint and should include
vanityName
,
headline
/
localizedHeadline
, and
profileUrl
when your app and scopes return those fields. Please retry the same connected account; the
LINKEDIN_GET_PERSON
workaround should only be needed if LinkedIn still withholds the richer fields. If
profileUrl
is still missing, send the new log id and I’ll trace the response.
