LinkedIn Verification

Verify LinkedIn profile control through OAuth. Confirm professional identities for B2B transactions, hiring verification, or partnership validation.

How It Works

OAuth verification for professional networks

Step 1

Initiate OAuth

Call our API to get a LinkedIn authorization URL. User is redirected to LinkedIn's login.

Step 2

User Authenticates

User logs into LinkedIn and grants permission to verify their professional profile.

Step 3

Proof Generated

We verify the OAuth response and return a proof token with LinkedIn profile details.

API Integration

Integrate LinkedIn verification for B2B use cases

1. Create Verification Request

curl -X POST https://api.proof.holdings/api/v1/verifications   -H "Authorization: Bearer pk_live_YOUR_API_KEY"   -H "Content-Type: application/json"   -d '{
    "type": "social",
    "channel": "linkedin",
    "identifier": "john-doe-12345"
  }'

2. Verify the Proof Token

# After OAuth callback, check verification status
curl -X GET https://api.proof.holdings/api/v1/verifications/VERIFICATION_ID   -H "Authorization: Bearer pk_live_YOUR_API_KEY"
