Good to know

  • Posting uses the w_member_social scope, so it publishes as the member (personal profile), not an organization page.

  • Both the linkedin and linkedin-openid callback variants are accepted, but register the linkedin-openid one shown below.

Ready when you are

Connect LinkedIn from the Social Accounts page, then post from the composer.
