the different options are detailed under: https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/share-on-linkedin

via opening SAFARI

just call a customized URL with openURL:.

the format of the url is described by the linkedIn Developer Docs:

example:

https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=http://developer.linkedin.com&title=LinkedIn%20Developer%20Network&summary=My%20favorite%20developer%20program&source=LinkedIn

via REST API

e.g. call via NSURLSession

https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/shares?format=json

and pass JSON body

e.g.

{
  "comment": "Check out developer.linkedin.com! http://linkd.in/1FC2PyG",
  "visibility": {
    "code": "anyone"
  }
}

Note that with the REST API, you need to register your app with linkedin (all described in the docs)
