Permanent integration of LinkedIn, twitter in website/app

How we can permanently integrate LinkedIn, twitter in website/app using OAuth.

Once user connected to app using OAuth then he'll never ask again for OAuth connection even he change his password for LinkedIn later.

Like integration of Facebook <->Twitter:

Once we connect twitter account with facebook it automatically post on twitter when we post at facebook.

Not sure what you mean by "permanent", but once you've successfully authenticated the user, you'll have their access token and secret which can be used to make authenticated API calls to LinkedIn on their behalf. You should store this token/secret to make future calls.

Note: this token is only valid for 60 days, however (similar to Facebook). You'll need to refresh the token before 60 days, otherwise the user will need to be presented with the OAuth login dialog again to essentially re-auth your application.

This documentation goes into detail and provides code samples: https://developer.linkedin.com/documents/authentication
