# LinkedIn Analytics

Track impressions, engagement and follower growth for your LinkedIn posts and profile, and interact with posts through reactions, comments and reshares. Statistics come from the REST API; reactions, comments, reshares and mention lookups are MCP tools.

## Prerequisites

**Plans:** Works on the free Starter plan. Current limits and pricing: [publora.com/pricing](https://publora.com/pricing).

### Getting Started

1. **Create account** at [publora.com/register](https://publora.com/register) (free)
2. **Connect LinkedIn** via OAuth in [Publora Dashboard](https://app.publora.com/dashboard)
3. **Get an API key** at [app.publora.com/dashboard/api](https://app.publora.com/dashboard/api), only if your agent cannot sign in with OAuth or you will use the REST API fallback below
4. **Connect your agent** to the MCP server at `https://mcp.publora.com/mcp`:
   - **Upgrading a manual connection without `/mcp`:** Claude treats `https://mcp.publora.com` as a different server from the bundled one. Change that existing connection to `https://mcp.publora.com/mcp` in its current scope, preserving its authentication and chosen account; sign in again if requested. Alternatively, verify the bundled connection uses the intended account, then remove only the old manual entry. Do not add a second entry or delete credentials automatically.
   - **Publora tools already available** (the `publora-skills` plugin or the Publora connector in Claude): nothing to set up. Claude asks you to sign in to Publora the first time a tool runs.
   - **Agents that support OAuth** (Claude Code, Cursor, and the Claude and ChatGPT apps): add the server by URL and sign in, no API key needed. In Claude Code, add it and then run `/mcp` to sign in:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user publora https://mcp.publora.com/mcp
```

   - **Agents without OAuth:** send the API key as `Authorization: Bearer sk_YOUR_API_KEY`:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user publora https://mcp.publora.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer sk_YOUR_API_KEY"
```

   Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, OpenClaw and the claude.ai connector each need a different config file or flow: see [client setup](https://docs.publora.com/mcp/client-setup) for the exact path and snippet.

### REST API Fallback

If the MCP server is unavailable or returns errors, use the REST API directly:

**Base URL:** `https://api.publora.com/api/v1`

**Authentication:** Use `x-publora-key` header (NOT `Authorization: Bearer`):

```bash
# Get your connected platforms
curl -X GET "https://api.publora.com/api/v1/platform-connections" \
  -H "x-publora-key: sk_your_api_key"

# Get post statistics
curl -X POST "https://api.publora.com/api/v1/linkedin-post-statistics" \
  -H "x-publora-key: sk_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "platformId": "linkedin-abc123",
    "postedId": "urn:li:share:7123456789012345678",
    "queryTypes": "ALL"
  }'

# Get account statistics
curl -X POST "https://api.publora.com/api/v1/linkedin-account-statistics" \
  -H "x-publora-key: sk_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "platformId": "linkedin-abc123",
    "queryTypes": "ALL"
  }'
```

**Platform ID Format:** `linkedin-{id}` where `{id}` is from `/platform-connections` response.

Example IDs: `linkedin-Tz9W5i6ZYG`, `linkedin-abc123xyz`

## Analytics Tools (REST only)

LinkedIn analytics are **not exposed as MCP tools**. The MCP server carries posting, media and LinkedIn engagement tools; statistics live only on the REST API, so call these endpoints directly with the `x-publora-key` header. Asking an agent for an `linkedin_post_stats` MCP tool will fail: there is no such tool.

### POST /linkedin-post-statistics
Engagement metrics for one post.

**Body:**
- `platformId`: platform connection ID (e.g. `linkedin-abc123`), from `list_connections`
- `postedId`: post URN (`urn:li:share:...` or `urn:li:ugcPost:...`)
- `queryTypes` (optional): `IMPRESSION`, `MEMBERS_REACHED`, `RESHARE`, `REACTION`, `COMMENT`, or `ALL`

**Returns:** impressions, unique impressions (members reached), reactions, comments, reshares, and a `cached` flag telling you whether the numbers came from cache.

### POST /linkedin-account-statistics
Aggregated statistics for the account.

**Body:** `platformId`, optional `queryTypes`, optional `aggregation` (`DAILY` or `TOTAL`, default `TOTAL`).

### POST /linkedin-followers
Follower count or growth over time.

**Body:** `platformId`, optional `period` (`lifetime` or `daily`), optional `dateRange` (`{start: {year, month, day}, end: {year, month, day}}`).

### POST /linkedin-profile-summary
Combined profile overview: followers plus statistics.

**Body:** `platformId`, optional `dateRange`.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.publora.com/api/v1/linkedin-post-statistics" \
  -H "x-publora-key: sk_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"platformId": "linkedin-abc123", "postedId": "urn:li:share:7123456789012345678", "queryTypes": "ALL"}'
```

## Engagement Tools
