# LinkedIn

> Give an agent access to your connected LinkedIn account so it can publish posts and research profiles

LinkedIn gives your agent access to your connected account. The agent can publish posts, look up profiles, retrieve company information, and analyze post content while it responds to chat messages or completes tasks.

## What it does

When LinkedIn is enabled on an agent, the agent can automatically perform LinkedIn actions as part of its reasoning process. You ask a question or give it a task — the agent decides when and how to use your LinkedIn account on your behalf.

## Prerequisites

You must have an active LinkedIn connection in your workspace before enabling this tool. If no active connection exists, the toggle is disabled.

1. Go to **Integrations** for your workspace.
2. Find **LinkedIn** in the integrations grid.
3. Click **Connect** and complete the OAuth flow.
4. Return to your agent and enable the tool.

## Adding the tool to an agent

1. Open an agent in the editor.
2. Click the button with the tooltip **Add MCP Tool or Sub Agent**.
3. In **MCP Tools**, click **LinkedIn**. The LinkedIn node appears on the canvas.
4. Click the node to open the **Settings** panel on the right.
5. In the **Authentication** field, select the connected LinkedIn account the agent should use.
6. If no active connection is found, the settings panel shows a warning with a link to **Integrations** to connect first.

## Use cases

* Research a LinkedIn profile before drafting outreach in chat.
* Publish a post or share a URL after a workflow generates content.
* Retrieve company page information to personalize a response.
* Look up post content or share statistics for reporting.

## Notes

* The agent uses your connected LinkedIn account to perform actions. Make sure the OAuth connection has the scopes your workflows need — posting requires `w_member_social` or `w_organization_social`.
* LinkedIn is not available when the agent model provider is Google/Gemini.
* This tool counts as 1 credit per action the agent performs.
* OAuth may show third-party authorization branding during the connect flow.
