I have a lot of experience with navigating APIs.
I can show you the basics for how Oauth works, and the basic setup that is required for most of the APIs that I have had experience with working in the eCommerce field. I can write the code examples so that you can begin making that cool linkedin app.
I am new to freelancer, but I am not new to python, linux, and APIs. I will do what it takes to make sure you can use linkedin's API. I put a tentative 2 day completion date, as I am not sure how deep we need to get. However, if Oauth is your problem, we could get that setup in no time.
Thanks for your time and consideration.
