Search and extract company accounts using powerful filters including industry, location, company size, and keywords. This endpoint processes results asynchronously and sends enriched account data to your webhook URL.

​
Overview

This endpoint allows you to search for companies based on various criteria without needing to provide a LinkedIn Sales Navigator URL. The process is asynchronous - you’ll receive an immediate response with the import job details and a preview of matching accounts, and the complete enriched results will be sent to your webhook URL when processing is complete.

​
Rate Limits

  • 1 request per second per user/IP address

​
Search Filters

​
Industries

Provide an array of industry IDs to target specific industries. Multiple industry IDs are combined with OR logic. For the complete list of industry IDs, see the LinkedIn Industry List. Common industry IDs include:
  • 4 - Automotive
  • 6 - Technology, Information and Internet
  • 12 - Education
  • 43 - Financial Services
  • 96 - Software Development

​
Locations

Use the Location IDs endpoint to find valid location IDs. You can include or exclude specific locations:
  • included_locations: Target specific countries, states, or cities
  • excluded_locations: Exclude specific locations from results

​
Company Size

Filter by employee count ranges:
  • 1-10 - Startup/Very Small
  • 11-50 - Small
  • 51-200 - Medium
  • 201-500 - Medium-Large
  • 501-1000 - Large
  • 1001-5000 - Very Large
  • 5001-10000 - Enterprise
  • 10001+ - Mega Corporation
Multiple size ranges can be used

​
Keyword

Search for companies by keyword in their name or description. This is useful for targeting specific niches or technologies (e.g., “saas”, “fintech”, “healthcare”).

​
Limits

By default, the endpoint will process up to 1,000 matching accounts. You can set a lower limit using the limit parameter. The minimum of your specified limit and 1,000 will be used.

​
Streaming Mode

When streaming is set to true, results will be sent to your webhook in batches as they are processed, rather than all at once when complete. This is useful for large searches where you want to start processing results immediately.

​
Response

The endpoint returns immediately with:
  • A unique import job ID for tracking
  • The total number of accounts that will be processed
  • A preview of the first 10 matching accounts
The complete enriched results will be sent to your webhook URL when processing is complete.
