What is AutoGen?
Microsoft's framework for building multi-agent conversational AI systems. Agents can converse, use tools, and collaborate autonomously.
Searching LinkedIn with AutoGen
This integration lets your AutoGen agent search LinkedIn in real time via the Scavio API. The agent gets back structured JSON with post results, profile results, company results, post snippets — ready for reasoning and decision-making.

pip install autogen-agentchat requestsCode Example
Here is a complete AutoGen agent that searches LinkedIn using Scavio:

headers={"x-api-key": "your_scavio_api_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"query": query},
)
return str(response.json())
assistant = ConversableAgent(
"assistant",
llm_config={"model": "gpt-4o"},
system_message="You are a helpful research assistant.",
)
user = ConversableAgent("user", human_input_mode="NEVER")
assistant.register_for_llm(name="search", description="Search LinkedIn")(scavio_search)
user.register_for_execution(name="search")(scavio_search)
user.initiate_chat(assistant, message="Search for: site:linkedin.com/in AI engineer San Francisco")Full Working Example
