LinkedIn Organization Share Statistics API not returning aggregated statistics

LinkedIn's API V2 docs for the Organization Share Statistics endpoint list some aggregated statistic fields in the response schema

  • shareStatisticsByCountry
  • shareStatisticsByDegree
  • shareStatisticsByFunction
  • shareStatisticsByIndustry
  • shareStatisticsBySeniority
  • shareStatisticsByStaffCountRange

API link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/marketing/integrations/community-management/organizations/share-statistics

But I can't seem to get them in the response, either in a lifetime query or in a time range query. Their sample response JSON don't show those fields either.

My query

GET https://api.linkedin.com/v2/organizationalEntityShareStatistics?organizationalEntity=urn%3Ali%3Aorganization%3Axxxxxxx&q=organizationalEntity

The response I get

{"elements"=>
  [{"total_share_statistics"=>
     {"share_count"=>328,
      "unique_impressions_count"=>36098,
      "click_count"=>2451,
      "engagement"=>0.044408163265306125,
      "share_mentions_count"=>67,
      "like_count"=>1000,
      "impression_count"=>85750,
      "comment_mentions_count"=>14,
      "comment_count"=>29},
    "organizational_entity"=>"urn:li:organization:xxxxxxx"}],
 "paging"=>{"count"=>10, "start"=>0, "links"=>[]}}

Is there some parameters I'm missing? Or does the organization I'm querying simply don't have enough engagement on its shares?

Basically those fields do not exist anymore. I got the following answer from the Linkedin technical support on their Zendesk about this issue.

Apologies for the confusion. Those fields are actually no longer available in the API. We have a pending documentation change to remove those from that page.
