# Get Audience Count

> Size a LinkedIn audience from targeting criteria before building anything

Size a LinkedIn audience from targeting criteria before building anything. Use it to check a targeting spec clears LinkedIn's 300 member minimum, and to compare how much each facet narrows the audience. Look up real facet URNs with linkedin\_ads\_search\_targeting first.

| Field                | Type             | Required | Default | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| -------------------- | ---------------- | -------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `targeting_criteria` | object or string | Yes      | -       | LinkedIn targetingCriteria object describing the audience, as a dict or JSON string, for example \{'include': \{'and': \[\{'or': \{'urn:li:adTargetingFacet:locations': \['urn:li:geo:103644278']}}]}}. Use linkedin\_ads\_search\_targeting to look up real URNs and do not invent them. LinkedIn requires locations, and in practice also interfaceLocales, before it will answer. |
