# LinkedIn tools

> Open LinkedIn on the iPhone at the place you name and read it into rows, by code. These tools never like, follow, comment, send or post.

## `linkedin_open`

Go to a screen in LinkedIn on the iPhone by code, with no taps from you (your feed, messages, a conversation, notifications, search, a profile, a post's link). For an act it names the control and never taps it.

**Acts on the device.**

**Arguments**

| Name | Type | Default | Description |
| - | - | - | - |
| `where` | string | required | Where to go in LinkedIn: home, messages, thread, notifications, search, post, reply, with a name, @user, words or a link where one is needed ("thread Sam Lee", "profile @nasa"). An act's place (reply) names its control and never taps it. At most 200 characters. |
| `device` | string | see description | The device's name or id from `list_devices` (or leave it out for the server's default device). |
| `run_id` | string | | A check's run id from `verify_start`, to drive its device instead. |

**Example**

```json tools/call params theme={"theme":"css-variables"}
{"name": "linkedin_open", "arguments": {"where": "home"}}
```

**Returns**

A line naming the screen it reached. `structuredContent` has `screen`, `title`, `confidence`, `how` and `steps`. When `where` names a control, the line says where the control is, and `structuredContent` has `control`, with its `label`, `role` and `where`; it never taps it.
