Company Distribution by Department (POST /v2/enrichment/company-distribution-by-department) shows how a company’s employees split across departments. It takes a LinkedIn company URL and returns total_employees and a distribution array with one bucket per department, each with a count and a percentage_ratio (its share of total_employees, 0 to 100, to 2 decimals). Use it to profile an account’s team.

1 record on success

Buckets are returned in descending order of count, and total_employees is the sum of every bucket’s count. Employees whose department could not be classified are grouped under Other. A company with no matching employees returns an empty distribution array and total_employees: 0.

count and total_employees count current jobs, not people: a person with two current jobs at the company is counted twice, so total_employees can be higher than on Company Distribution by Country.

The response carries a found field. When the company is unknown or has no current employees, found is false and the call costs 0 records.

Set is_recent_hire to true to count only people whose current job at the company started in the last 90 days. A job with no start date is not counted.

If you only have a domain, run Domain to LinkedIn URL first, then pipe the LinkedIn URL into this endpoint.
