/v1/actions/linkedin-extract-people-experiences/run/liveExtract People Experiences pulls the full work-history section of a LinkedIn profile — every company, title, date range, and description — and returns it as a typed array. It runs on the LinkedIn level and is the focused primitive for career-based routing, scoring, and outreach copy that does not need the whole profile payload.
You get the career arc as structured data, keyed to the profile, ready to score seniority, match stack, or drop into a personalized opener.
You pass in a LinkedIn profile URL or profileId, Edges requests the experience section through your authenticated LinkedIn session, and every experience is parsed into a record. The operation runs live and returns the full experience list in a single call.
The action runs on Edges infrastructure, browser-less and paced. If an experience has been hidden or the profile is private, Edges returns whatever LinkedIn exposes to the session — typically the public subset — rather than failing the whole call.
Use this action when career history is the deciding signal — seniority for ICP matching, stack keywords for recruiting, tenure for trigger-based outreach. It fits the LinkedIn profile & company data API use case and plugs into CRM scoring, ATS enrichment, and personalization workflows.
Extract People Experiences is lighter than pulling a full profile; call it when experience is the only slice you need.
currentlyWorking flag flips to a new company and trigger a warm outbound sequence.One. Extract People Experiences is a per-record primitive. For larger batches, call it in an orchestrated loop and let Edges pace the requests for you.
Your account. Every call runs through your connected LinkedIn session on Edges, so visibility and pacing are tied to the account you control.
Yes. Common chains are [Search LinkedIn People](/actions/linkedin-search-people) → Extract People Experiences → score → route or Extract People Experiences → [Extract People Skills](/actions/linkedin-extract-people-skills) → ATS enrichment. The output is a plain experience array downstream actions can consume.
