/v1/actions/linkedin-extract-company-employees-insights/run/liveExtract LinkedIn Company Employees Insights pulls the aggregated workforce view LinkedIn publishes on a company page — headcount distribution by function, seniority, geography, and headcount growth over time. It runs on the LinkedIn level through your connected session and returns the insights as structured JSON you can score, chart, or stream into a warehouse.
Use it to understand an account's shape without scraping every employee profile one by one.
You supply a company page URL (or company ID) and Edges reads the insights tab on the page through your authenticated LinkedIn session. The response is the same aggregate data a buyer sees in the browser — department splits, seniority distribution, tenure distribution, top locations, new hires, and the headcount growth trend — normalized into fields your pipeline can consume.
Because the underlying data is aggregated, Extract LinkedIn Company Employees Insights does not return individual employee records. For a person-level breakdown, pair it with Search LinkedIn Company Employees.
Reach for this action when you want a fast, account-level read on shape and momentum — "is this company hiring? in which function? is the sales team growing?" — without pulling a full employee list. It is a strong signal for buying intent when a function you sell into is hiring faster than the company average.
It sits inside the LinkedIn profile & company data API use case and complements firmographic enrichment via Extract LinkedIn Company Profile.
