WORKFLOW ACTIONS
What you can configure.
Choose an action in the workflow builder, connect an account, and map its inputs. These actions are available in the catalog; your account access and a successful test determine whether they work for your setup.
Create company page post
Write
Publish a text post as a company page the member administers.
Permissions and limits
Account permissions
w_organization_social
Operation limits
Posting as a company page needs LinkedIn's Community Management API product, which LinkedIn reviews, and LINKEDIN_OAUTH_ORGANIZATION_POSTS=true before the member connects.
LinkedIn allows 150 posting requests per member per day and refuses an exact duplicate of a recent post for ten minutes.
A lost answer remains uncertain and is never resent automatically, so a post is never published twice.
A repeated request may repeat the external action. Review the previous result before retrying a write.

SETUP
Start with a controlled test.
01Connect the intended account
Use the account and permissions required for your process. Review the connection check before configuring a workflow action.
02Review inputs and access
Select a listed operation and map its required inputs. Use test records and add a human approval before writes that need review.
03Confirm the result
Inspect step outputs and confirm the result in LinkedIn. A saved workflow is not a completed provider action.
