Before you spend on LinkedIn data

Can I use the free official LinkedIn API for lead generation?

Free standard API usage still requires approved access. Other members’ profiles and sales data require additional permissions or partner approval. The five Glasser tasks above are available through your Glasser account without applying for LinkedIn API access.

Official restrictions still matter: the Profile API prohibits storing other members’ profile data, and full company details require the target company’s Page admin. Profile API restrictions · Company data access

Do I need LinkedIn approval or separate provider accounts?

The five Glasser tasks above use your Glasser account and balance. You do not need LinkedIn API approval, a SNAP partnership or separate provider accounts for these tasks. Connect your agent with the Glasser skill to get started.

What LinkedIn data can I get through Glasser?

Look up profiles by URL, find profiles by name, find people by company and job title, retrieve available company-page data, and enrich contacts with verified work emails. Available fields and billing units vary by task; people search does not include email enrichment.

Does the calculator show everything I need to pay?

It shows data usage for your selected task: returned profiles, company lookups or matched contacts. For example, 1,000 company lookups use $1.88 at the listed rate. That amount is separate from the funds you add to your Glasser balance. Check available top-up amounts before deciding your starting budget.

Additional searches, pages or new lookups increase usage. Your agent or model charges and any applicable taxes are outside this estimate.

Does paying give me unlimited lookups?

No. A Sales Navigator seat does not include API access. Approved LinkedIn APIs have daily application and member limits that vary by endpoint; check your app’s Developer Portal for its quota.

Glasser’s usage estimate covers the selected quantity. Each endpoint also has its own input and result limits: the employee search used here returns up to 25 profiles per call, with contact enrichment priced separately. Larger tasks can require multiple calls. LinkedIn rate limits · Employee search limits

Will empty results or repeated lookups use my budget?

Billing depends on the task. Company-page lookups charge per call, including no-result calls. Name and employee searches are priced per returned profile. Prospeo email enrichment is free when no person matches. A fresh lookup can incur another charge; check the selected endpoint before running it.

For a small first task, ask your agent to show the intended lookups and estimated data cost before running them. Endpoint billing details · Run charges, §6.2–6.3

How do I get started?

Create a Glasser account with $1 in free credit, connect your agent and paste a task prompt. Ask your agent to show the data sources and estimated cost before making paid calls. Continue on a pay-as-you-go balance, with no monthly subscription; your agent or model costs are separate.

Pricing sources

Prices checked November 9, 2026 in Glasser’s live catalog; official pricing/access evidence dated November 5, with Profile API, Organization Lookup and rate limits rechecked November 9. Glasser rates use the live catalog: Apify profile and name search $0.01/result; LeadMagic employee search $0.025/result; ScrapeCreators company lookup $0.00188/call; Prospeo email enrichment $0.0245/matched person. Results and fields differ from LinkedIn products. Glasser requires its own account and authentication.

LinkedIn $0 figures are standard usage fees for approved access; partner agreements may differ. Sales Navigator figures are a one-seat, one-month manual research subscription, excluding trials, discounts and taxes. They do not price an API workflow.

Profile and contact access require LinkedIn approval and are governed by the developer’s data-use agreement. Their documentation specifies no application fee or review deadline. Profile API terms prohibit storing other members’ profile data. Organization Lookup permissions can come through Advertising or Community Management access; the calculator describes the Community Management application route. It requires an eligible use case and verified business/app; Standard tier adds integration and demo review. Access programs and permissions. Full organization fields require the target company’s Page admin; non-admin fields are limited. These approvals do not guarantee suitability for prospecting.
