running this : python3 linkedin2username.py -u ****@gmail.com -c uber-com -p *****

Hi @Aramics - thanks for opening an issue!

I just tested and the tool is still working for me, so at least I know LinkedIn hasn't made a new change that completely breaks the tool.

Are you able to log in ok via the web with the same username and password?

Maybe try the following:

Thanks!

Thanks very much. @initstring

Are there any weird special characters in your password that maybe the command line is not handling

This was the problem, i have '&' in my password.

Thanks very much.
