LinkedIn app
Show the latest posts from a company's LinkedIn page as an auto-rotating carousel.
Creating a LinkedIn app
- Go to Content > Add > New app and search for the LinkedIn app.
- Click the app to start creating a new app.
- Enter an App name.
- Under Data, find LinkedIn posts and click New datasource. If your workspace already has a LinkedIn posts datasource, click Choose existing to reuse it and skip to step 7.
- Enter a Name for the datasource. Under Select connection, pick an existing LinkedIn connection, or choose New connection and sign in with a LinkedIn account that administers the company page(s) you want to show. LinkedIn connects whichever account your browser is signed into, so sign out of LinkedIn first if that's the wrong one.
- Pick the company page under Organization name — only pages the connected account administers are listed — and click Save.
- Set how long each post is shown (Seconds per post), optionally limit the number of posts, and pick a Style.
- Click Create app.
Admin access required
LinkedIn only exposes posts via the API to people who manage the page. If your account isn't a page admin, the organization won't appear in the picker — ask your LinkedIn page admin to add you, or have them connect the account instead.
