Accepted answer
Unfortunately Group APIs are not yet avaiable from LinkedIn.
This means you will no longer be able to access content from, or share content to, a LinkedIn Group through external platforms.

Hi nanddeep,

I had worked on activity feed for this api

https://api.linkedin.com/v2/activityFeeds?q=networkShares&count=2&oauth2_access_token="******"&format=json
it shows error

{"serviceErrorCode":100,"message":"Not enough permissions to access /activityFeeds FINDER networkShares","status":403}

For other api's,
https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/network/updates?oauth2_access_token="***"&format=json
it shows access denied.
{"errorCode": 0, "message": "Access to network denied", "requestId": "F6Z42XRILI", "status": 403, "timestamp": 1519997140233 }
but the basic api working without error.

https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~?oauth2_access_token="****"&format=json
{ "firstName": "Gowtham",
"lastName": "Naren"
}
I was missing something for those errored api's.Pls let me know the required steps to clear those api's

Try testing your code at https://apigee.com/console/
Make below selections:
API = LinkedIn

LinkedIn provides the developer API - https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/rest-api
This should help you to get the required properties
