Discrepancies between Kaspr API and Linkedin phone numbers - Need assistance with version 2.0

Hello team, I've been using Kaspr API with Clay for the past few month but lately the phone numbers found through the API are different from the one Kaspr shows me on Linkedin. I noticed they made a version 2.0 of their API maybe that's why it doesn't work anymore ? Can you you help me with this ? https://kaspr.stoplight.io/docs/kaspr-api/branches/main/51f7f5ce88a29-get-linked-in-profile

Could you DM me your API key when available or add it to the column?

Scratch that, was able to find your older columns and use that to ensure that version 2 of the api was being used. I also saved the configuration as a template for you

Thanks Arturo, it works ! However it only works on this table "Phone Number Finder", when I use your template on another table it doesn"t work. Do you know why ?

Hey Elliot, that's odd. Could you share the link to your table where it's not working?

I think it's working but Kaspr returns an empty response if it doesn't find any information for that person. If you check your table where it was working, it's also true for some of those people there.Those that do have a value will show results though.

Also, I matched the behavior of your previous HTTP setup, where you asked Kaspr to only return values that include phone numbers. This is a JSON key in the body, "requiredData"

Sorry Arturo, I don't know why but I haven't been notified of your reply. Thank you very much for all these explanations. Can you check this table : https://app.clay.com/workspaces/113258/tables/t_ZCpdPDqn3NwO/views/gv_tP0qpWds0Lu7

My HTTP API for Kaspr in on the right

If you check the third contact "Stephane Carré", the phone number column is empty but with Kaspr's chrome extension I find a number... that's odd. Have I done something wrong with the API input ?

Hey hey

I just changed the input to "id" to the linkedin slug instead of URL and it looks to be working now!

There's a chance the URLs they use are a different form than what we have, linkedin has a few different variations

YES ! It works 🙂

I would have never thought that we had to use the linkedin slug 😅
