FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

You may of course do the same in xml. Use the following options array.
Configuration
The api options
The third parameter of LinkedIn::api is an array with options. Below is a table of array keys that you may use.
| Option name | Description |
|---|---|
| body | The body of a HTTP request. Put your xml string here. |
| format | Set this to 'json', 'xml' or 'simple_xml' to override the default value. |
| headers | This is HTTP headers to the request |
| json | This is an array with json data that will be encoded to a json string. Using this option you do need to specify a format. |
| response_data_type | To override the response format for one request |
| query | This is an array with query parameters |
Changing request format
The default format when communicating with LinkedIn API is json. You can let the API do json_encode for you.
The following code shows you how.
When using array('json'=>$body) as option the format will always be json. You can change the request format in three ways.
Understanding response data type
The data type returned from LinkedIn::api can be configured. You may use the
LinkedIn::setResponseDataType or as an option for LinkedIn::api
Below is a table that specifies what the possible return data types are when you call LinkedIn::api.

| array | An assosiative array. This can only be used with the json format. |
| simple_xml | A SimpleXMLElement. See PHP manual. This can only be used with the xml format. |
| psr7 | A PSR7 response. |
| stream | A file stream. |
| string | A plain old string. |
Using different scopes
If you want to define special scopes when you authenticate the user you should specify them when you are generating the login url. If you don't specify scopes LinkedIn will use the default scopes that you have configured for the app.
