Read the comments on one LinkedIn post from its url. Get commenter name and headline, likes, reply count and pinned or edited flags, sorted by newest or relevance. Only post links work. The full thread is not always rebuilt.

Send POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with platform set to linkedin and action set to comments. Price $0.56 per 1,000 requests ($0.000556 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Asynchronous by default: returns a job_id first; poll GET /api/v1/jobs/{job_id}.

Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra LinkedIn Comments endpoint (linkedin/comments).

How the endpoint works:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to linkedin and action to comments, and put the parameters inside params.
- Required parameters:
  - url: Specifies the full LinkedIn post URL used by the comments action to fetch comments for that post; company or personal profile URLs are not supported.
- Optional parameters:
  - num_comments: Provides a compatibility input for setting an upper cap on fetched comments rather than filtering for a minimum comment count. Results are not guaranteed to be truncated to this number.
  - num_likes: Provides a compatibility input for setting an upper cap on retrieved like data rather than filtering posts by a minimum number of likes. It does not serve as a stable post popularity filter.
  - sort: Sets the sorting order to newest or relevance for post search and comment fetching. Because these actions target different object types, this parameter does not sort people, companies, or job listings. (allowed: newest / relevance)
  - limit: The most rows to return in this call, an integer from 1 to 200. The default applies when you leave it out, and a call can return fewer rows. Larger values return 422 before any charge. (default: 20)
- Returns a list of records. Main fields of each record: id, text, url, author_name, author_username, author_headline, author_url (Profile link of the post author (search…), like_count, reply_count, is_pinned, is_edited, posted_at; 14 fields in total, full list at https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social/catalog?platform=linkedin.
- Example request body:
{
  "platform": "linkedin",
  "action": "comments",
  "params": {
    "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/posts/linkedin_no-is-a-complete-sentence-activity-7247998907798978560-J_hB"
  }
}
- Price: $0.56 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- This endpoint is asynchronous by default: it returns 202 and a job_id, then you poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} until the status is succeeded or failed.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.

Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.

Captured October 24, 2026 at 18:28 (UTC) by calling this API with the parameters in the code sample above. results and count are that call's real response with personal information (names, handles, avatars, profile links, contact details) removed; the list keeps the first 2. id, billing and quota differ on every call, so only their shape is shown.

Response fields

#

Business data is in results. The table lists the fields a record can contain; values the platform does not show are never made up.

FieldMeaning
idThe record's unique ID on the platform. Unique only within one platform; IDs can repeat across platforms.
textBody text with HTML removed, returned in full and never cut short (on a few platforms the list results themselves carry only an excerpt; the platform's field notes say so).
urlLink to the record on the platform.
author_nameAuthor's display name.
author_usernameAuthor's username (@handle), usually usable in URLs.
author_headlineKeeps the platform's own meaning
author_urlProfile link of the post author (search), without tracking parameters.
like_countLikes. null means the platform or this capability does not disclose it; it is not 0.
reply_countReplies, usually replies to a comment. null means not disclosed.
is_pinnedKeeps the platform's own meaning
is_editedKeeps the platform's own meaning
posted_atPublish time in ISO 8601, UTC (for example 2026-08-07T12:34:56+00:00). Non-standard strings from the platform are passed through as is, so parse defensively. null means the platform does not disclose it.
post_urlKeeps the platform's own meaning
platformSource platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok).
languageContent language code (for example zh, en) as judged by the platform; it can be wrong.
