Answer 1

You are using V1.0 of linkedin apis. They have migrated apis to V2.0. Use V2.0 ( doc ) and you won't get this error.

Sample Get request

https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=xxxxxxxx&redirect_uri=https://www.yoursite.com/oauth2/callback&state=fooobar&scope=r_liteprofile%20r_emailaddress%20w_member_social
