- prairiedogg 11y agoCould you get away with allowing folks to manually paste in the HTML of their own linkedin page, or perhaps upload a PDF version of their linked in page? Are you scraping the page for input params? Would it be possible to just expose an API (or web forms that point there) to let folks put in those parameters manually?

- elaineo 11y agoOkay, I added a field to manually paste in the HTML! Thanks for the suggestion :)
