如何使用Python / Curl访问LinkedIn并查看朋友的完整档案？

Question

A Linkedin friend's full profile is not viewable without login to our Linkedin account. Is it possible to use cookie or any other alternative way without a browser to do that?

Any tips are welcome!

LinkedIn REST API uses Oauth 2.0 protocol for authentication. In order to use the LinkedIn API, you have an application key and application secret. You can get more detail from here .

Thanks @Anzel, but related-profile-views API allows to read past profile view, but not trigger a new view (and therefore notify the user that I visited their profile programmatically). Unless I pop up a new window and load their profile, but then I'll need a browser to do it. Ideally I wanted to achieve it via backend, cURL and cookies, but it it's not as simple as it sounds.
