Issues with LinkedIn Enrichment Due to Subdomain Confusion

·

Has anyone encountered any problems with linkedin enrichment finding the wrong people due to subdomains? I have an example of a person that given the URL linkedin.com/in/abcde is not the same person as the one I am looking for which is it.linkedin.com/in/abcde

Yes, LinkedIn enrichment can sometimes return inaccurate results due to several factors. This can happen with different URLs for the same person (like subdomains) because: 1. Data providers have limitations and don't use active sessions or cookies to scrape LinkedIn data live 2. Some LinkedIn fields are only visible when logged in 3. Privacy restrictions set by LinkedIn or the person themselves can affect results To improve accuracy when searching for specific profiles, try using additional identifiers like full name and company domain together with the LinkedIn URL
