}Check relationship status with profile
Check the relationship between your default LinkedIn account and a target profile. Useful for determining which actions are available (message, connect, etc.). `status` is one of four mutually exclusive states: | status | meaning | what you can do | |---|---|---| | `CONNECTED` | 1st-degree connection | message them | | `INVITATION_SENT` | you invited them, still pending | withdraw via `POST /invitations/withdraw` | | `INVITATION_RECEIVED` | they invited you, waiting on you | accept/ignore via `POST /invitations/received/respond` | | `NOT_CONNECTED` | no relationship | invite via `POST /connections/invite` | `INVITATION_RECEIVED` is NOT a connection: the person is still 2nd/3rd degree and cannot be messaged. Check `status`, not just `connected`.
