Is there a way to fetch Admin profile details/Company page owner details using Companies API?
or Vice-versa, to fetch Company Pages the user owns (Not his employers) using Profile API?
I read the documentation and could find a way for it, any help is highly appreciated.

According to the LinkedIn API docs (last example in the Overview section), you can get all the companies a use is an admin for with the following call:
https://api.linkedin.com/v1/companies?is-company-admin=true

We're applaime - developing an AI driven product which will help job seekers to manage more effectively the job application process.
The product will enable Linkedin oauth authentication after which it is expected to retieve the current user's basic profile.
Hence we would like to apply for this permission (r_basicprofile). How can we get this process in motion?
Thanks.
Trying to fetch the basic profile via an API. Need permission for that.
This page describes how to get access to the various APIs: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/shared/authentication/getting-access.
We are a platform that facilitates companies to hire analytics talent on demand. We only allow users to login to our platform with their Linkedin IDs so that we can validate their profile details and score them. Currently, the Linkedin API doesnot give us even the Linkedin-id of the user to help us manually check the profile. How can we correct this?
Ask for the r_liteprofile and r_emailaddress scopes as part of the OAuth flow. Then make GET calls to https://api.linkedin.com/v2/me and https://api.linkedin.com/v2/emailAddress?q=members&projection=(elements*(handle~))
to gather this information. See the documentation for more details.
However, please read LinkedIn's API Terms of Use to ensure your application is an acceptable use case. Also, the profile data you can receive is quite limits, so it may not give you the fields you want.
We lost access to some important user information with the upgrade to V2. We have read all the migration info and documentation posted. We would like to know where to apply for a permission to access the LinkedIn r_fullprofile?
PD: We have already sent an email to linkedin_support#cs.linkedin.com explaining some info about the company and how LinkedIn info is used:
"Our mobile app is a collection of mini social and professional networks that exist at physical locations. It is used in local venues, conferences and university classrooms. The ability gives our mutual users the ability to connect with people nearby with similar professional profiles. We use the vanity name to direct users to the public url page of other users. We strongly also encourage that our users signup using Linkedin and for those who don't have a Linkedin account to create one. We believe the integration add value to both of our companies."
I am attempting to gain access to the news feed or home in a user's LinkedIn profile using the LinkedIn Developer APIs.
When I went through LinkedIn Developer documentation, I haven't been able to discover a proper reference to a doc associated with this feature.
Does this suggest that we have to be a LinkedIn certified API partner to achieve this target? If not, where can I find an appropriate documentation for this.
The LinkedIn Developer documentation states that full profile information is only accessible when calling the "Apply with LinkedIn" API.
But in practice, when doing a simple test using my own LinkedIn profile I manage to access the Full Profile fields via a "Sign in with LinkedIn" call (I use the JavaScript SDK btw).
That's all very nice because it means that I can access more fields than I expected via the "Sign in with LinkedIn" API, but isn't that a security bug?
PS: If you're a LinkedIn developer, there is a typo error on the Basic Profile fields page: field specialities should be spelled specialties.
you are accessing the data for your own profile that's y u can access all fields .. if you try to access any one else's full profile then you can't retrieve data from those profile . data retrieval of those profiles are limited to basic profile fields only
#JustinKominar's comment is the answer:
There is a blog post (https://developer.linkedin.com/blog/posts/2015/developer-program-changes) that explains that the recently announced changes to LinkedIn's API program will take effect on May 12th, 2015. You still have access because we are still in the transition period between the announcement and formal change. Presently, all previously documented capabilities are still available to you.
