Rows are groups keyed by group_ln_id, with a /groups/ URL, the name, Public or Private, the member counter both as printed and parsed (0 is real, null is unread), a best-effort blurb and a logo. WARNING, the English dependency is TOTAL, worse than the jobs search: the name is read out of English UI copy and a card whose name cannot be read is dropped, so a non-English executor returns ZERO rows and still reports success. Page on with has_more, never on paging.total. Contract: - MCP tool `scrape_linkedin_search_groups`, registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_scraping`, mount `linkedin.scraping`. - Operation `action`, response envelope `action`. - Flags: none. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/linkedin/openapi.yaml post /api/linkedin-scraping/search-groups openapi: 3.0.3 info: title: 'GTM API public contract: gtm.service.linkedin' description: >- Connected LinkedIn accounts and everything driven through them: account health and smart limits, conversations and messages, the connection graph, outbound posting, scraping, profile and company enrichment, and the antidetect browsers that execute it all. GENERATED. This document is projected from the Zod MCP tool registry in `product/mcp/gtm.mcp` (one tool per public endpoint, 1:1). Do not edit it by hand; edit the tool definition and regenerate with `pnpm openapi:public`. Surface: the public `/api` contract of `gtm.service.linkedin`, 159 operations. This is the only OpenAPI document the platform publishes. Internal (`/internal`) and health endpoints are deliberately absent: they are not part of any contract, they can change without notice, and the service source is their only description. Conventions: - Auth is a bearer JWT, optionally narrowed by the `Team-SID` header. - Every success body is an MCP envelope: `success: true` plus one typed `operation` shape (`search`, `get`, `create`, `update`, `delete`, `metrics`, `group_by`, `action`), and a `meta` block with `trace_id` for support. - Every failure is the same `McpError` envelope with a code from a fixed 16-code taxonomy, so a client maps errors once. - Lists page with `page_size` (0 to 500, default 50) plus an opaque forward `cursor`; `page_size: 0` returns counts only. - On `GET` and `DELETE`, object-valued query parameters (`filter`, `sort`) travel as JSON text and array-valued ones repeat as `name[]=value`. - The MCP-only `_meta` field (usage analytics) never reaches the backend and is not part of this contract. version: '1.0' contact: name: GTM API url: https://gtm-api.com email: support@gtm-api.com license: name: Proprietary url: https://gtm-api.com/license servers: - url: https://app.gtm-api.com/linkedin/v4 description: Production, through the app.gtm-api.com gateway security: - BearerJwt: [] TeamSid: [] tags: - name: antidetect_browser_logs description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/antidetect_browser_logs`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.browsers`. - name: antidetect_browser_proxies description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/antidetect_browser_proxies`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.browsers`. - name: antidetect_browsers description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/antidetect_browsers`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.browsers`. - name: cloud_browser_sessions description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/cloud_browser_sessions`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.browsers`. - name: cloud_browsers description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/cloud_browsers`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.browsers`. - name: data_requests description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/data_requests`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.data`. - name: linkedin_account_activity_log description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_account_activity_log`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.account-monitor`. - name: linkedin_account_block_log description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_account_block_log`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.account-monitor`. - name: linkedin_account_quota_hits description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_account_quota_hits`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.account-monitor`. - name: linkedin_account_smart_limits description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_account_smart_limits`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.accounts`. - name: linkedin_account_snapshots description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_account_snapshots`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.account-monitor`. - name: linkedin_account_sync_runs description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_account_sync_runs`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.account-monitor`. - name: linkedin_accounts description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_accounts`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.accounts`. - name: linkedin_auto_scrape_results description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_auto_scrape_results`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.auto-scrapes`. - name: linkedin_auto_scrape_runs description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_auto_scrape_runs`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.auto-scrapes`. - name: linkedin_auto_scrapes description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_auto_scrapes`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.auto-scrapes`. - name: linkedin_benchmarks description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_benchmarks`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.account-monitor`. - name: linkedin_connection_invitations description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_connection_invitations`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.network`. - name: linkedin_connection_requests description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_connection_requests`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.network`. - name: linkedin_connections description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_connections`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.network`. - name: linkedin_conversations description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_conversations`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.messaging`. - name: linkedin_custom_requests description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_custom_requests`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.platform`. - name: linkedin_enrichment description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_enrichment`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.enrichment`. - name: linkedin_followers description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_followers`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.network`. - name: linkedin_messages description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_messages`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.messaging`. - name: linkedin_posting description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_posting`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.content`. - name: linkedin_scraping description: >- Registry package `mcp.linkedin/linkedin_scraping`, served on MCP mount `linkedin.scraping`. paths: /api/linkedin-scraping/search-groups: post: tags: - linkedin_scraping summary: Scrape group search description: >- One page of a LinkedIn GROUP search, the fifth row kind on this surface. `filters` carries keywords and nothing else, exactly like the events search, so a pasted /search/results/groups/ `url` is the only way to anything the groups screen offers beyond a keyword: send exactly one of the two.
