Is there a gender field in LinkedIn?

Question

My application gets users' information from LinkedIn and I could not find a way to get someone's gender from LinkedIn.

Is it possible?

Does LinkedIn even have a gender field?

Answer 1

Nope. Check this; https://developer.linkedin.com/forum/javascript-api-gender-information-authenticated-user

Answer 2

You can add your own gender by clicking Me > Settings & Privacy > Personal demographic information.

Linkedin calls this Self-ID Information.
