}Send message (with channel selection)
Send a LinkedIn message. By default, messagingChannel is "auto" which auto-detects whether to use Sales Navigator or standard LinkedIn inbox based on the account premium status. Users can explicitly control the messaging channel by setting messagingChannel to: "sales_navigator" — forces the message through the Sales Navigator API (returns a 400 error if the account does not have an active Sales Navigator subscription), or "linkedin_inbox" — forces standard LinkedIn messaging even if the account has Sales Navigator. Example: to send via standard inbox on a Sales Nav account, pass { "messagingChannel": "linkedin_inbox" }. To explicitly use Sales Navigator, pass { "messagingChannel": "sales_navigator" }. If omitted or set to "auto", the system decides automatically. Supports file attachments.
Download media from message
Download media (images, files, videos, audio) from a LinkedIn messaging URL. Uses account session cookies for authentication. No proxy is used — media is fetched directly from LinkedIn CDN. Supports URLs from www.linkedin.com/dms/prv/ (private messaging media) and media.licdn.com (CDN-hosted media).
