[ FAQ ]

LinkedIn Company Search API questions

How do I find companies on LinkedIn by industry or keyword?

Send a keyword such as fintech or climate software. Each result has the company name, industry, location, follower count, description, logo and page link, up to 10 per call; raise start for more.

Can I build a list of target accounts with it?

Yes. Search the keywords that describe your market, then pass the slug from each company’s page link to the LinkedIn Company API for headcount, headquarters, specialties and funding.

How do I get more than 10 results from a LinkedIn company search?

Each call returns up to 10 companies. Send the same search again with start set to 10, then 20 and so on, to get the next ones.

How do I use the LinkedIn Company Search API?

Send a POST request to https://api.bridgly.app/linkedin/search/companies with keyword in the JSON body and your API key in the Authorization header. In the TypeScript SDK, call client.linkedin.searchCompanies(). AI agents connected to Bridgly over MCP can call the linkedin_search_companies tool.
