Is this gem still maintained? #268

Open Arepo opened 6 years ago

Arepo commented 6 years ago

I tried installing it and setting up an application on LinkedIn's website, but

a) the terminology doesn't quite match the docs here (eg there I have a 'Client ID' and a 'Client Secret' vs the 'your_consumer_key', 'your_consumer_secret' placeholders in the examples here; and b) When I call client.profile or client.network_updates using those values anyway, I get a LinkedIn::Errors::NotFoundError: (404): Not Found error (not a 401 as I'd expect if I'd just entered the wrong auth)

Am I doing something wrong, or is the gem out of date now? If the latter, could you update the ReadMe with a note to that effect?

There is a ticket somewhere basically saying that this gem isn’t supported much anymore.

You can always submit a PRThough if you find an issue that you want to fix. -Matt
