How to find your LinkedIn URL (desktop, iPhone and Android)

Your LinkedIn URL is the web address of your profile, in the form linkedin.com/in/your-name. On desktop, click the Me icon, open your profile and copy the address from your browser’s address bar. In the LinkedIn app on iPhone or Android, tap your profile photo, open your profile, tap More next to Add section, then Contact info: your profile URL is listed there.

What a LinkedIn URL looks like

LinkedIn URL formats
URL typeExampleWhat it is
Profile URLlinkedin.com/in/jane-smithYour personal profile. The part after /in/ is yours to customize.
Assigned profile URLlinkedin.com/in/jane-smith-4b7a21x9The URL LinkedIn gave you, often with extra letters and numbers.
Company Page URLlinkedin.com/company/acme-studioA business’s LinkedIn Page.

Every profile URL starts with linkedin.com/in/, and every company Page URL starts with linkedin.com/company/.

Find your LinkedIn URL on desktop

  1. Click the Me icon at the top of your LinkedIn homepage.
  2. Click your profile card in the dropdown to open your profile.
  3. Copy the address from your browser’s address bar. That’s your profile URL.

Or, on your profile, look at the right-hand pane for Public profile & URL. Click the edit icon next to it and your URL appears under Edit your custom URL, ready to copy or customize.

Find your LinkedIn URL on iPhone or Android

The steps are the same in the LinkedIn app on iPhone and Android:

  1. Tap your profile photo in the upper-left corner.
  2. Tap your profile card in the navigation panel.
  3. Tap the More icon next to the Add section button.
  4. Tap Contact info. Your profile URL is listed there.

To edit it from the app, tap the edit icon in Contact info, then tap your profile URL. LinkedIn takes you to your public profile settings.

LinkedIn is updating its navigation on desktop and in the app, so menu names may differ slightly on your account. Your profile is always under the Me icon on desktop and your profile photo in the app.

How to customize your LinkedIn URL

A custom URL such as linkedin.com/in/jane-smith looks cleaner on a resume, email signature or proposal than one ending in random characters. On desktop:

  1. Click Me, then your profile card.
  2. Click the edit icon next to Public profile & URL on the right.
  3. Under Edit your custom URL, click the edit icon next to your URL.
  4. Type the new ending and click Save.

LinkedIn’s rules for custom URLs:

If your name is taken, try adding a middle initial (jane-a-smith), your profession (jane-smith-design) or your location (jane-smith-london).

How to find someone else’s LinkedIn URL

On desktop, open their profile and copy the address from your browser’s address bar. In the app, open their profile, tap More (the three dots) and use the share option to copy the profile link.

Don’t know where their profile is? Search their name and company in the LinkedIn search bar, or search Google for their name plus “LinkedIn”. Profile links in search results go straight to linkedin.com/in/ pages.

How to find a company Page URL

Search the company’s name on LinkedIn, open its Page and copy the address from the address bar. It ends in /company/ followed by the Page’s name.

If you’re a super admin of the Page, you can change the Page URL:

  1. Go to your Page’s super admin view.
  2. Click Edit page in the left menu.
  3. Open the Page info tab.
  4. Type the new name in the LinkedIn Public URL box and click Save.

You can change a Page URL once every 30 days. Changing the Page name doesn’t change the URL, and the old URL keeps redirecting until another Page claims it.

Where to use your LinkedIn URL

Collecting profile URLs to build a lead list?

Copying profile URLs one by one into a spreadsheet is slow. In bravabase, Brava finds leads by the buying signals you pick, or from a LinkedIn search, a Sales Navigator list or a CSV, and saves each one with a fit score, the reason it was found and a work email and phone number.
