When I do the above call, I get a succesful API response but one that is empty as below:
{'success': True, 'status': 200, 'data': {'people': [], 'totalResults': 0}}
Why is this? There are definitely many people under this name so an empty result list is not correct.
What does “free_text” indicate? I am asking because I am trying to understand the difference between “company_free_text” and “current_company_list” in the above?

First name and lastname are optional filters as per linkedin.com search engine. Try passing Name in “keywords”
Sorry it is still not clear to me. Let me rephrase:
What is missing from my API call to get a response that is not empty for Abbie Morris? At the moment I am supplying first name and last name. What else do I NEED to add?
Passing only bottom filters will return results. You can pass bottom five filters alongwith atleast one compulsory filter to get results
Please let me know about the above follow up questions of mine.
The bottom 5 filters are First name, Last name, Title, Company and School. But these don’t have “free” in them in the above API payload?
Also, can you please explain why the API response is empty?
Kindly see the filters in LinkedIn search engine to understand.
Attributes with term free in them represents bottom 5 filters in LinkedIn.com
