How to get Linkme profile

TL;DR
To get Linkme profile, sign up for a free Captapi key, then send one GET request to /v1/linkme/profile with your input. You get clean JSON back in seconds for 4 credits per call — no OAuth, scraping or platform SDKs. Extract the public links and profile fields from a Linkme profile.

  1. 1

    Get a free API key

    Create a free Captapi account (100 credits, no card) and generate an API key from the dashboard.

    Send an authenticated GET request to /v1/linkme/profile with your input. No OAuth, no scraping setup.
