Quickstart
This guide will get you all set up and ready to use the Datamagnet API. We'll cover how to get started using one of our API clients and how to make your first API request. We'll also look at where to go next to find all the information you need to take full advantage of our powerful REST API.
Before you can make requests to the Datamagnet API, you will need to grab your API key from your dashboard. You find it under Dashboard » API keys.
Making your first API request
After getting your API key, you are ready to make your first call to the Datamagnet API. Below, you can see how to send a POST request to the People endpoint to fetch complete LinkedIn profile from the Linkedin people url.
curl --request POST 'https://api.datamagnet.co/api/v1/linkedin/person' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {token}' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
"url": "https://linkedin.com/in/pratik-dani"
}'
