2019 still works but with a different approach.

Do this:

You may follow the steps from here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/shared/authentication/authorization-code-flow?context=linkedin/consumer/context

1 - Create an APP with r_1st_connections permission 2 - Authorization (STEP 2 from link)

GET https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/authorization

scope should be r_1st_connections (your app must have this permission)

3 - Log in with your username and password

4 - Linkedin will return you code

something like: ?code=QWERTY

5 - Get your Access Token (STEP 3 from link)

POST https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/accessToken

6 - Get your connections

GET https://api.linkedin.com/v2/connections?q=viewer&start=0&count=50
