LinkedIn Company feed – token issue : can’t authenticate

Hello, I’m facing issue with the integration of Flow flow Linkedin feed on my page. I can’t get the access token even if I’ve followed step by step the setup guide.
How can get the access token easily ?

Can you help me on step 7 ?

“https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=APP_CLIENT_ID&state=DONT_CHANGE_THIS&redirect_uri=APP_REDIRECT_URI&scope=rw_company_admin
Where APP_REDIRECT_URI can be your site URL.

After you sign in in Linkedin and click Apply you will be redirected to page you specified as APP_REDIRECT_URI, in its URL you will see parameter ?code=SOME_CODE. Copy and save this code. Please notice that URL also has &state=DONT_CHANGE_THIS, ignore this part when copying code.
Now replace placeholders in this URL and visit it in a browser

https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/accessToken?grant_type=authorization_code&code=YOUR_CODE&redirect_uri=APP_REDIRECT_URI&client_id=APP_CLIENT_ID&client_secret=APP_CLIENT_SECRET
Finally, copy Access code from the page (valid for 60 days) and paste it in Flow-Flow auth settings.”

Looking forward to receive your answer and support. Thanks in advance.

Hello, Linkedin along with many other providers retired bunch of their old API, and we are in the process of updating. Unfortunately last year there were more updates that we can handle in a timely manner. We apologize but we can’t give you estimates for when Linkedin will be available again. Old method works for Linkedin apps created before 1 March and that has rw_company_admin permission. If you have such app you can still get Linkedin posts. The new method requires additional coding to be implemented and we are not yet sure we will get access to new API, because it’s based on review process. Currently our app review is in progress. Please wait for news.

Hi,

You need to follow the Updated steps that Microsoft have shared in the Documentation.

I have successfully obtained the latest V2 Api Access Token and tested it too.

V2 Token working 100% correct.

Hello, my feed was displayed with old post and not the latest ones. As from may 1st, I’ve followed again the process to get to V2 but I’m having an error message Plugin received next error message from network API for this feed:
Feed cache has not been built. Try to manually rebuild cache using three dots menu on the left.
Rebuild manually doesn’t work.

Can you help as the problem is not solved ?

Thanks in advance 🙂
