LinkedIn API: unexpected industry values returned -


we're developing app uses linkedin api sign in , retrieve profile information. 1 part of profile information require industry, part of basic profile information described on page:

https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/fields/basic-profile

as understand values returned should 1 of descriptions on page:

https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/reference/industry-codes

however, profiles receiving values aren't in list, , aren't particularly friendly looking. example 'computer_software'.

why value being returned?

would safe assume can replace underscores spaces, , correct capitalisation correct value?

finally, if above won't work build mapping table, there cases multiple different values returned same industry? e.g. 'computer_software' , 'computer_software' returned instead of 'computer software'? in other words, mapping table need 1 many, or 1 one suffice?

many thanks, ian
