Connect a LinkedIn Account

To share posts to your LinkedIn profile and pages, you must first connect those profiles to SkyePress. This article is here to help you do just that.

Navigate to the Accounts tab of the plugin’s Settings page. Click the “Connect Account” button found in the column named LinkedIn.

You will be redirected to a page within the plugin where you will be asked to enter the App Client ID and App Client Secret of your LinkedIn App. If you don’t have a LinkedIn App we’ve prepared a step by step guide for you about how to create one.

After adding the LinkedIn App credentials click the “Continue” button.

If this is the first account you connect with these credentials, you will be redirected to LinkedIn where you will be asked to allow permissions for your LinkedIn App. Simply introduce your LinkedIn credentials and click the “Allow access” button.

After you have allowed access to your LinkedIn App you will be redirected back to your website to a page where you will be able to select which profile or page you wish to connect to SkyePress. After you have selected the profile / page click the “Add Account” button.

The process of allowing permissions in LinkedIn will only happen once per LinkedIn App credentials introduced. For adding another profile / page all navigation will be handled inside your website.

You can now start sharing your posts on this new connected profile or page.
