Post

A post or repost, as profiles.posts and profiles.activity return it. posts.enrich returns this same record by URL or bare urn, with comments included.

Fields #

Field	Type	Notes
`urn`	string	The activity's numeric id, with the urn:li:activity: prefix stripped. This is the id, not the full urn - reconstruct it yourself as urn:li:activity:<id> if you need the prefixed form.
`share_urn`	string	The full prefixed urn (urn:li:share:...), unlike urn beside it. LinkedIn returns it that way, and the prefix is what distinguishes a share from an activity - the two fields carry the same id in different conventions on purpose.
`url`	string
`author`	PostAuthor
`text`	string
`posted_at`	string (RFC 3339)	Decoded from the activity id, which encodes a Unix millisecond timestamp in its top bits. The feed carries no timestamp field of its own. Absent when the date could not be decoded, rather than present and wrong.
`content_type`	string	One of text, image, video, document, article. Derived from which media component the payload populated, not a field LinkedIn sends.
`media`	PostMedia[]
`article`	PostArticle
`mentions`	PostMention[]
`hashtags`	string[]
`reaction_count`	integer
`comment_count`	integer
`repost_count`	integer
`reactions_by_type`	ReactionCount[]	The breakdown behind reaction_count.
`is_repost`	boolean	A repost with commentary nests the original; a plain repost does not, and the only marker is the header line LinkedIn renders. Both set this flag.
`reposted_post`	ActivityTargetPost
`comments`	PostComment[]	The top comments. Returned only by posts/enrich - profiles/posts returns posts without them, because a feed page carries no comment bodies.
`scraped_at`	string (RFC 3339)	When this record was taken. On every record, because "never cached" is only a credible claim if the record says when it was fetched.

Absent is not null: a field we did not get is omitted rather than sent as an empty string, so you can tell "LinkedIn does not have this" from "this person left it blank".
