Error 500 products api

Hi, i have a problem with the products api.

Yesterday it worked fine, but today i get an error code 500 : Internal API server error.

I call the api with that url : http://api.linkedin.com/v1/companies/1337/products:(id,name,type,creation-timestamp,logo-url,description,features,video:(title,url),sales-persons,recommendations:(recommender)), it seems the "sales-persons" and "recommendations:(recommender)" fields which are the cause of this error.

(Sorry for my english)

Best regards

Bonjour Pierre-Alexander:
Your English is much better than my French.
That URL is working for me right now. Please retry and see if you are still getting the error.
Thanks
Steve

It's weird, my problem is now solved, i don't know how i got this error, but now it's ok.

Thanks for the reply.

I have another question : do you know how to make the same result than the "company insider" plugin?
I used the new API "company updates" on my company name and i don't get the same result than the plugin :
With the plugin i get 2 new hires, but with the api i get nothing...
Last question, do you know any issues to get the company's staff with the company id?I actually get it with the company name, but it's not really accurate.

Thanks a lot

Bonjour Piere-Alexandre:
To help you with that we really need to see code samples, urls requested, http headers and responses. If you could give more specifics for each of the problems you talk about it would be much easier to help you. Without concrete examples it is really hard for us to help.
Thanks
Steve

It's not a problem, I just want to know if it's possible to make the things I said (company insider plugin etc...etc...) with simple API call?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply!

Actually i use the new "company updates" API to get new hires, the plugin returns 2 new hires but the api returns nothing... :/
A last thing, is there any issue to get the company's staff with the company id? I actually get it with the company name(with the people search API), but it's not really accurate...

Thanks!

You can use people-search with the company facet to get employees of a company. As far as the company updates, using the Company Updates API should get you the updates, but the people-search will work better for what you want, I think.
