gtm-api LinkedIn MCP Server

Managed LinkedIn MCP server for AI agents, running as an Apify Actor. It bridges MCP clients to the hosted streamable-http endpoint at https://mcp.gtm-api.com/mcp; no server logic runs inside the Actor. Every tool executes on the hosted server, where account safety is enforced: warm-up ramps for fresh accounts, server-side daily limits, preview-then-confirm on outward actions. gtm-api reports 20,000+ LinkedIn accounts running at under 1% monthly ban; the method is written up at gtm-api.com/safe-linkedin-automation.

The server exposes three MCP tools (list_toolsets, get_toolset_tools, call_tool) that give an agent progressive access to 160+ typed LinkedIn actions: messaging, connection requests, content, enrichment, search, account health and infrastructure.

Setup

1. Get an API key at app.gtm-api.com (7-day trial, no card) and connect a LinkedIn account you own.
2. Start this Actor in Standby mode with gtmApiKey set in the input, or pass the key per request instead (an x-gtm-api-key header, or ?gtm_api_key=... in the URL).
3. Point your MCP client at the Actor's Standby URL, path /mcp, with your Apify token:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "gtm-api": {
            "url": "https://USERNAME--linkedin-mcp.apify.actor/mcp?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN"
        }
    }
}

A normal (non-Standby) run performs a connectivity self-check against the hosted endpoint, writes the result to the dataset, and exits.

Input

Field	Required	Meaning
gtmApiKey	no, if passed per request	API key from app.gtm-api.com, sent upstream as an Authorization bearer
upstreamUrl	no	Endpoint override, defaults to https://mcp.gtm-api.com/mcp

Prefer a direct connection?

Clients that speak streamable-http do not need this Actor: point them straight at https://mcp.gtm-api.com/mcp with an Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY header. Stdio clients can use the npm launcher @gtm-api/linkedin-mcp or the Docker image gtmapi/linkedin-mcp. This Actor exists for teams that keep their agent stack on Apify.
