Get code

I use the get method to create successful code.

    GET https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/authorization? 
response_type=code&client_id=77d*******oo56&redirect_uri=https://officialrajdeepsingh.dev&state=testfoobar&scope=r_liteprofile%2520r_emailaddress%2520w_member_social

Get access token

I use the post command to get successfully access token

POST https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/accessToken HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
grant_type=authorization_code
code=code-here
redirect_uri=https://officialrajdeepsingh.dev
client_id=77d*********56
client_secret=ma***********Ch

Based on the token I try to create a post on my LinkedIn page.

Permissions

  1. OAuth 2.0 scopes

  2. Products

OAuth 2.0 scopes

For permission I add both 3 permission, to create a post on the LinkedIn page. scop

Products

I add both three products to my app. Linkedin product

This worked for me:

I created an access token with Oauth tools insted of doing in a CURL request. https://www.linkedin.com/developers/tools/oauth?clientId=YOUR_CLIENT_ID

After saving the access token and the access refresh in a save place, I was redirected to allow my app publish (though the API) on my behalf (my linkedin user).

After doing that, you should have allowed to your app to publish on your behalt. You can check that under: https://www.linkedin.com/mypreferences/d/data-sharing-for-permitted-services
