# LinkedIn Post Comments

> Collect normalized public linkedin post comments data.

# LinkedIn Post Comments

```json theme={"system"}
{
  "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/posts/aagupta_what-you-need-to-know-ai-agents-activity-7354600338621906944-RvXR"
}
```

The endpoint returns all comments exposed with the post and bills the actual number of stored comments.

## Result Fields

Task results use the stable SocQ fields below. Source-specific field names and formats are normalized without inferring or enriching values that the source did not provide. To request a smaller field set, use `fields` for MCP queries, `_result_fields` for typed tools, or `--result-fields` in the CLI. Declared fields remain present when their value is `null`.

## Use with MCP and CLI

| Interface   | Value                                                    |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| REST        | `POST /v1/linkedin/post-comments`                        |
| Compact MCP | `socq_execute` with `endpoint: "linkedin/post-comments"` |
| Typed MCP   | `socq_linkedin_post_comments`                            |
| CLI         | `socq linkedin post-comments`                            |

The endpoint uses the asynchronous task flow and returns a task\_id. Poll the task endpoint to read normalized results.
