Everything You Need for LinkedIn Messaging

Read and reply to professional conversations without wrangling the LinkedIn API. List conversations, load history, and send replies from one endpoint.

List Conversations

Fetch conversations for a connected LinkedIn account with each participant name, headline, and profile picture, plus the most recent message and updated time.

Read Message History

Load the messages in a conversation, paginated, each with the sender and a timestamp. Rebuild the full professional thread on your side.

Send Replies

Reply to a contact with one call. The response returns the sent message ID so you can track delivery and reconcile it against your CRM.

OAuth and Refresh Handled

Your users connect their LinkedIn account through PostPeer's OAuth flow. PostPeer manages tokens and refreshes so your integration keeps working without manual re-auth.

Build Your Own Inbox

Everything the PostPeer dashboard inbox uses is available through the API, so you can build a branded inbox or route conversations into your sales and support tooling.

One Endpoint Across Platforms

The LinkedIn Messages surface uses the same `/v1/messages` request and response shape as every other PostPeer messaging endpoint. Add it without a new integration.
