LinkedIn (Company Page)

The LinkedIn connector lets Glowtify publish posts on LinkedIn Company Pages (organizations) and retrieve engagement data. This is the org-level connector — one shared connection per workspace authorizes the page, and any admin can use it.

For posts on a personal LinkedIn profile (the human-facing surface), see LinkedIn Profile instead. That's a separate connector with a different mechanic (per-user, cross-workspace).

Prerequisites​

  • Access to at least one LinkedIn Company Page as an admin, content admin, or super admin
  • A personal LinkedIn account to authorize the connection (LinkedIn requires a real user to consent — the resulting token authorizes the workspace, not the user)

Connecting LinkedIn​

  1. On the Connectors page, click Connect LinkedIn
  2. Log in with your LinkedIn personal account
  3. Authorize the permissions requested
  4. Glowtify pulls the list of organizations you admin
  5. Pick the organization(s) to enable

If you admin multiple organizations, you can enable several under a single connection.

Permissions requested​

  • Publish posts as the selected organization
  • Read social actions (likes, comments, reposts) for insights

How publication works (soft scheduling)​

LinkedIn uses soft scheduling. Glowtify stores content and publishes via LinkedIn's API at the scheduled time.

Destination: linkedin.

Format specifics​

  • Caption up to 3 000 characters
  • Images support JPG, PNG
  • Videos support MP4, up to ~15 minutes and ~5 GB (LinkedIn's own limits)
  • Article format for long-form content (separate endpoint; Glowtify's blog editor handles this)

Token expiration​

LinkedIn tokens last ~60 days by default. Reconnect from the LinkedIn connector card when Glowtify flags expiration.

Common issues​

"Publication failed — not authorized for this organization"​

Your LinkedIn admin rights on the org have been revoked, or the org has restricted third-party posting. Check your role on LinkedIn and re-authorize if needed.

"Caption too long"​

LinkedIn enforces 3 000 characters hard. Shorten, or consider the long-form article format.

"Media format not supported"​

LinkedIn rejects certain file types. Convert to a supported format (JPG, PNG, MP4) before retrying.

I want to post on my personal profile, not the company page​

That's a separate connector — see LinkedIn Profile. Different OAuth flow, different mechanic (per-user, not per-workspace).

Disconnecting​

From the LinkedIn connector card → menu → Disconnect. Same behavior as other connectors: past posts stay, future scheduled ones stop.
