Sign in with LinkedIn to publish to your profile, and to Company Pages you administer where available.
Connect LinkedIn to publish posts from OmniBrand.
Before you start
- You are an Owner or Admin in OmniBrand.
- You know the LinkedIn member login that should post.
Step by step
Signed in to this platform on your phone rather than on the computer? The connect window also shows a QR code: see Connect an account from your phone.
- Set up → Accounts → click LinkedIn under Connect an account (or + Connect another).
- LinkedIn's window opens. Sign in and click Allow. OmniBrand asks to read your basic profile and to post on your behalf.
- Your personal profile appears as a row.
Company Pages
Posting as a Company Page needs a LinkedIn permission that OmniBrand enables separately. When it is enabled, the sign-in also reaches every Page you are an administrator of, and the window Choose which accounts to connect opens: tick your personal profile, the Pages, or both, and click Connect selected. Each account you tick appears as its own row. If only your personal profile appears, posting as a Page is not available on your account yet; contact support.
What happens next
- Publish text of up to 3,000 characters with up to 9 images, a video or a PDF document. Retract works. Follower counts are collected for Company Pages only (a personal profile shows Not provided by LinkedIn on the Dashboard). Company Page posts get impressions, reach, clicks, shares, likes and comments; personal posts get likes and comments.
- The card says Publishing only: comments and messages on LinkedIn do not reach the inbox.
- LinkedIn access lasts about 60 days. Where LinkedIn allows it, OmniBrand renews it automatically; after about a year LinkedIn requires a fresh sign-in. Where LinkedIn gives no way to renew it, the row shows Expiring with a countdown from a week before the end, and Sign-in expired (with an email and a bell notice) when it ends. In both cases click Reconnect on the row.
If something goes wrong
- Sign-in expired - OmniBrand was removed in LinkedIn's Permitted services, or LinkedIn stopped accepting the sign-in. Click Reconnect.
