Get LinkedIn Updates additional statistics

I am using LinkedIn API to get company page updates and its statistics. I am able to get likes and comments count and other details for every update of a company by sending the following query to API

https://api.linkedin.com/v1/companies/[companyid]/updates/key=UPDATE-c123456789?format=json

However, I also want Impressions, Clicks, Interactions for every update. I am not able to find any documentation on API about it. Please help !!

The thing with LinkedIn is that their documentation is not explaining possibilities in details, only the general API endpoints. I was looking for profile update statistics and couldn't find it. Long story short, you can write the endpoint like this:

/v1/companies/{company_id}/historical-status-update-statistics:(time,like-count,impression-count,click-count,engagement)?time-granularity=day&start-timestamp=1466899200000&format=json&update-key={update-key}

You can find in the docs more for this topic. The trick is the (time,like-count,impression-count,click-count,engagement) part. You must include time-granularity and start-timestamp. Make sure you set the timestamp in milliseconds (unix*1000). If you don't provide update-key, you will get statistics for many updates.Please let us know if you've found other solutions for this.
