How can I get the public URL from the browser URL? By “browser URL” I mean something like:
http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=34661816&pid=5000742&authType=name&authToken=j2C6&trk=pbmap

You can’t fetch the public profile URL using the “browser URL”. Via the LinkedIn API, you can fetch a user’s public profile url with the following API call:
GET http://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~:(public-profile-url)
Note that I’m passing in the “public-profile-url” as a field selector. This is also assuming that you’ve properly authenticated your application as well: https://developer.linkedin.com/documents/authentication
