you can't get full_profile information from the basic linked in api. In order to get full_profile information you have to become partener with linked in.

https://developer.linkedin.com/partner-programs

if you want to get full information of r_basicprofile and r_emailaddress , make get request to following url with access token

https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~:(email-address,id ,first-name ,last-name ,maiden-name ,formatted-name ,phonetic-first-name ,phonetic-last-name ,formatted-phonetic-name ,headline ,location ,industry ,current-share ,num-connections ,num-connections-capped ,summary ,specialties ,positions ,picture-url ,picture-urls::(original) ,site-standard-profile-request ,api-standard-profile-request ,public-profile-url)?oauth2_access_token={YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN}&format=json

LinkedIn does not return all possible member profile fields that are available to you by default. There is a limited selection of additional member fields that are also available to you which may be relevant to your application. Refer to the Basic Profile Fields page for a complete list of the basic member profile fields.

The following example demonstrates how to customize your API call to request specific member profile fields that you wish to be returned during the Sign In with LinkedIn workflow:

GET https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~:(id,num-connections,picture-url)?format=json

sample api response:

{
    "id": "1R2RtA",
    "numConnections": 42,
    "pictureUrl": "https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mprx/…"
}
