Social & Community · Integration
Add LinkedIn to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
The honest thing to say about a LinkedIn integration is that access is the hard part. The API is not open: the endpoints for posting to an organization page and reading its share statistics sit behind partner programme approval, your app is reviewed, and the permissions you end up with decide what your product can offer, so scope is a business conversation before it is an engineering one. What you get once approved is genuinely useful and genuinely narrow. An administrator authorises the organization pages they manage, your product publishes posts and shares on their behalf, and reads the statistics on each. Member data and messaging are not part of it. fastn holds each authorisation per tenant and follows LinkedIn's versioned API.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let an administrator authorise the organization pages they manage, and publish to those alone.
Schedule and publish a post from your product so a marketing team never leaves your app to do it.
Read share statistics for a post and show performance next to the content that produced it.
Be explicit with customers about what programme approval permits, so nobody sells a feature that is unavailable.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent drafts a post for a human to approve before anything reaches the page.
An agent publishes an approved post to a permitted page, and the page it posted to is recorded.
An agent reports how a page's recent posts performed from their own share statistics.
Example prompt
How did our organization page's posts perform this month, and which one earned the most engagement?
Set up LinkedIn in 4 steps
- 01Enable the LinkedIn connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authorise their own LinkedIn account, so calls run under their credentials rather than a shared key.
- 03Decide which organization pages, posts and share statistics your product needs, and check partner programme access first, since it gates the whole surface.
- 04Call it from your product and expose it to your agents through the same governed connection.
Why teams use the LinkedIn integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a LinkedIn integration without building it. Your customers connect their own LinkedIn account inside your product and work their posts, pages and comments there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: anything published is public immediately, and each network gates access behind its own review process. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so a LinkedIn update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed LinkedIn connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you publish and listen from inside your product instead of a separate social tool without wiring it twice.

How do I add a LinkedIn integration to my product?
Enable the LinkedIn connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own LinkedIn account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no LinkedIn client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own LinkedIn account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own LinkedIn account and only ever sees their own posts, pages and comments. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this LinkedIn integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent drafts a post for a human to approve before anything reaches the page.
Who maintains the LinkedIn integration?
fastn does. When LinkedIn changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Can my product publish to a customer's own LinkedIn account?
Yes. Each customer authorises their own account, so a post goes out as them, under their permissions, never from a shared account you own. That also means a customer revoking access affects only their own connection.
Can I read engagement back from LinkedIn?
Yes. Comments, reactions and reach come back scoped per tenant, so your product can act on them or show them in your own reporting without one customer's numbers mixing with another's.
What can I build with the LinkedIn integration?
A common starting point: let an administrator authorise the organization pages they manage, and publish to those alone. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the LinkedIn integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding LinkedIn does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
