FAQ

What input does it take? A list of LinkedIn job URLs or bare numeric ids in job_urls_or_ids.

Why is salary/skills sometimes null? LinkedIn's logged-out pages only expose salary when the employer stamped it, and never expose structured skills/benefits — those are reported null rather than invented.

What is one billed result? One returned job detail = one result event at $0.90 / 1,000 jobs.
