Problems with searchCompanies function

Opened this issue · 5 comments

Hello, Michael.

searchCompanies function doesn`t work when location is specified.
For example:

searchCompanies(in.auth, location = "na.us", keywords = NULL)

returns

Error in company[[i]] : subscript out of bounds

And when industry is specified it returns

Error in searchCompanies(in.auth, location = "na.us", keywords = NULL, : [unauthorized]. OAU:77d0n820xq61u4|12fc5a4d-f052-47fb-a598-0f1b91d5f978|*01|*01:1478874517:po9JcBwRdRBXAliA03IiRp05qSQ=

@Castorphans I will check this evening.

Hello Micheal,
any news on this please? I have the same issue.
I also only get a list of 100 companies when I run the search with a keyword (without the location); Is it limited to 100?
Thank you

Hello Michael,

I recently started using the Rlinkedin package, which I find super cool. Unfortunately I have encountered the same problem described here. When i <- "ABB" and I run the command

search.comp <- searchCompanies(in.auth, keywords = i )

It works just fine, then I tried "APP implantate" and got first the same error reported above:

Error in company[[i]] : subscript out of bounds

Now I have tried again and get another error:

Error in searchCompanies(in.auth, keywords = i) : object 'q.list' not found

I am not sure what I am missing, it might be something obvious, but I was hoping you could help me with this! thanks a lot!!

Thanks for resurfacing the issue @fbontadini. My last attempted fell by the wayside, I will look into this issue this week though. My apologies for the delay!

Hello Michael,

Is there any solution to the above two problems? I am also facing the same issue of 'q.list not found' error for few of the keywords and industry codes. Also, I am unable to search with the geocode.

Thanks,
Niti
