Before & After

See how ShieldKey protects your LinkedIn integration with minimal code changes.

Before — raw LinkedIn key
const response = await fetch("https://api.linkedin.com/v2/me", {
  headers: {
    "Authorization": "Bearer AQVabc123..."  // ← profile access
  }
});

const profile = await response.json();
After — ShieldKey proxy token
const response = await fetch("https://proxy.shieldkey.io/linkedin/v2/me", {
  headers: {
    "Authorization": "Bearer sk_shield_t_2e6f..."  // ← revocable
  }
});

const profile = await response.json();

What ShieldKey Does for Your LinkedIn Keys

Instant Revocation

Disable any team member's access to your LinkedIn key in one click. No key rotation. No downtime. No re-deploying environment variables.

Spend Limits

Set per-token spend caps so a compromised token can't run up your LinkedIn bill. Get alerts before limits are hit.

IP Allowlisting

Restrict each shield token to specific IPs or CIDR ranges. Even if a token leaks, it's useless from unauthorized networks.

Full Audit Trail

See every API call made through your LinkedIn key — who made it, when, from where, and what they accessed.

Zero-Knowledge Encryption

Your LinkedIn key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM. It's only decrypted in memory during request proxying — never stored in plaintext.

Team Access Control

Issue individual shield tokens to each team member. When someone leaves, revoke their token — everyone else keeps working.

FAQ

How do I protect my LinkedIn API key?

Add your LinkedIn key to ShieldKey's encrypted vault. ShieldKey generates a proxy token (starting with sk_shield_t_) that your team uses instead. Your real AQV key stays encrypted and is never exposed to team members.

Can I use ShieldKey with the linkedin-api SDK?

Yes. Point your linkedin-api SDK at proxy.shieldkey.io and use a shield token instead of your real API key. The SDK works identically — ShieldKey transparently proxies every request.

What happens to my LinkedIn key if a team member leaves?

Revoke their shield token from the dashboard. Your real LinkedIn key stays active — no rotation, no downtime, no re-deploying secrets across services. Everyone else keeps working without interruption.

Does ShieldKey add latency to LinkedIn API calls?

ShieldKey's proxy adds less than 25ms at the p50. The proxy decrypts your key in memory, forwards the request, and streams the response back. For most LinkedIn API calls, this overhead is negligible.
