# Create a linkedin post agent

> Creates a LinkedIn post scrape agent (`linkedin-post`). Scrapes the engagers (`fieldsToScrape`: likes/comments) of 1-50 posts (exactly one of `postUrl`/`postUrls`), optionally every 7 days. A started scrape answers with the agent's own `id`, like every other kind; its internal scrape job id never leaves the service. With `start: false` (the default) a DRAFT is saved — status `initializing`, nothing billed: read it back with GET /business/agents/{agentId}, adjust it with PATCH /business/agents/{agentId}, then start it with POST /business/agents/{agentId}/activate. With `start: true` the agent is created AND started in one call: its dedicated results list is created, credits are checked and spent, and the provider subscriptions are set up. Either way the answer is 201 `{ agent: { id, type, name, status, started } }` — the same shape for every agent kind, draft or started. Poll GET /business/agents for `status` and `contactsFound`, and read the delivered rows with the Lists endpoints via the agent's `listId`. Free-plan accounts hold at most 10 agents, drafts included (403 AGENT_LIMIT_REACHED). Every field below is validated by the agents service: a rejected field answers 422 VALIDATION_FAILED, naming it in `param` and describing every failure in `message`. `listName` must not collide with an existing list or agent name (409 LIST_NAME_TAKEN), and starting without enough credits answers 402 INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS without creating anything.

Errors:
- `422` `VALIDATION_FAILED` — The request was rejected by validation. Either this endpoint's own request validation (a malformed body), or the agent config itself: a field missing, out of range or not one of the accepted values, or a business rule broken (an `expirationDate` that is not in the future, more industries than the kind accepts, a notification count out of range). `param` names the first offending field and `message` lists every failure.
- `409` `LIST_NAME_TAKEN` — `listName` is already used by one of your lists or agents. Pick another name.
- `402` `INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS` — The workspace does not have enough credits to start this agent. Nothing was created or spent.
- `403` `AGENT_LIMIT_REACHED` — Free-plan accounts may hold at most 10 agents, drafts included. Delete an agent or upgrade the plan.
- `400` `INVALID_REQUEST` — The agents service rejected the request for a reason this API does not model specifically. The request is not retryable unchanged.
- `429` `RATE_LIMITED` — The agents bucket is exhausted: 30 requests per minute or 2,000 per day per token owner, shared by every /business/agents operation (a 429 raised by the agents service is relayed with this code too). Retry after the `Retry-After` header.
- `500` `UNEXPECTED_ERROR` — The agents service failed (5xx, refused service credential, or a timeout after 60s) or the rate limiter was unavailable. Retry later; quote `request_id` to support.

Requires one of the following token scopes: agents.
