Is there any LinkedIn Rest API available to search people with first and last name?
I am not able to find anything on their developer website.
I found this url from some other question: http://api.linkedin.com/v1/people-search:(people:(id))?first-name=bill&last-name=gates
But when I am trying to hit this url from APIGee REST console I am getting response as 403 permission denied. I am using oAuth with my LinkedIn account.
I am currently using free account on LinkedIn, is because of that.
You have to get Vetted API access from Linkedin in order to do People Search. For more information please look into this link
Linked has closed its API some time ago. See a detailed announcement here.
