Connect LinkedIn so your agents can work in your LinkedIn account. You choose an access level for each account, and Squad refuses any agent action outside that level. ## Access levels Each LinkedIn account has an access level: **Read-only**, **Read + post**, and **Full access**. Squad refuses any agent action outside that level. You can also narrow or block single agents under **Per-agent access**. | Level | The connect window describes this level as | Actions agents can use | | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- | | **Read-only** | "See your name, photo, email, and profile." | 14 of 26 | | **Read + post** (recommended) | "Read profile and post to your LinkedIn feed." | 23 of 26 | | **Full access** | "Also manage company pages you admin." | 26 of 26 | **Read + post** is the recommended level. The connect window selects it for you, and you can choose another level. The LinkedIn sign-in page asks you to approve full access to your account. This is expected. Squad does not narrow the sign-in. It checks every agent action against the level you chose, and it refuses actions outside that level. ## What agents can do at each level Each level opens with a short summary in plain tasks, then lists every action it adds, grouped by what the action works on. You do not need to name actions. Ask in plain words, and the agent searches for the matching action. **Find an action.** Open a level and use your browser's find (Ctrl+F, or Cmd+F on a Mac) with a word from the task or part of a slug. Or ask your agent in plain words, for example "What can you do in my LinkedIn account?" The agent can search the LinkedIn actions for you. Each action shows its name, a one-line description where the LinkedIn action catalog has one, and its slug. The slug is the ID that agents use when they call the action. Agents can use 14 of the 26 LinkedIn actions at this level: * View images * View reports * View audiences * View companies * View content * View people * View reactions * Search records * View sizes * View videos All 14 actions at this level: | Works on | Action | What it does | Slug | | ----------------- | ---------------------------- |

Squad does not connect apps while the subscription is not active. Open **Settings** > **Integrations**. On the **Connected apps** tab, click **+ Add integration**. Find **LinkedIn** in the catalog and click it. You can type the name in **Search the catalog…**. Under **Default scope**, choose an access level. This level applies to every agent. Click **Connect LinkedIn**. The LinkedIn sign-in page opens in a new tab. Sign in to LinkedIn and approve the request. Check that it works: LinkedIn shows under **YOUR CONNECTIONS**, with a row for the account and its access level. ## Change the access level 1. Under **YOUR CONNECTIONS**, find the LinkedIn account. 2. Open the account menu (⋯) and click **Manage scope**. 3. Under **Default scope**, choose the new level. 4. Click **Save access**. The change does not need a new sign-in. Agents get the new level from their next call. ## Set access for one agent Every agent uses the account's level unless you set something else for it. You can narrow one agent to a lower level, or block it. 1. Under **YOUR CONNECTIONS**, open the account menu (⋯) on the LinkedIn account. 2. Click **Manage scope**. 3. Under **Per-agent access**, find the agent. 4. Choose the **Default** option to follow the account's level, choose a lower level, or choose **No access**. 5. Click **Save access**. An agent never gets more than the account's level, even if you choose a higher level for it. Changes apply from the agent's next call. An agent with **No access** does not see the account. ## Use more than one LinkedIn account Click **+ Account** on the LinkedIn card to connect another account. Agents use the primary account unless they are asked to use a specific one. * After you click **+ Account**, follow the connect steps above. * Each account has its own access level. * The first account you connect becomes the primary account. It shows **★ PRIMARY**. * To change the primary account, open the account menu (⋯) and click **Make primary**. * To tell accounts apart, open the account menu (⋯) and click **Rename**. ## Reconnect or disconnect Reconnect when the connection has expired, or when you need to change what the account can reach on the LinkedIn side: 1. Open the account menu (⋯) and click **Reconnect**. 2. Click **Reauthorize on LinkedIn**. 3. Sign in to LinkedIn and approve the request. Reconnect signs in to the same account again. It does not add a second connection. Open the account menu (⋯) on the LinkedIn account and click **Disconnect**. Agents lose access to that account at once. **Disconnect** acts at once, with no confirmation step. If it was the primary account, another connected LinkedIn account becomes primary. ## Costs LinkedIn actions do not use Squad credits. Connected apps never use credits. For what does use credits, see [What Squad costs](/docs/costs). ## Troubleshooting An agent reports that an action is not allowed on this account. * Cause: the action is outside the account's access level, or outside the level you set for that agent. * Fix: choose a higher level in **Manage scope**, or change the agent's row under **Per-agent access**. An agent says it has no access to LinkedIn, or it does not see the account. * Cause: the agent is set to **No access** under **Per-agent access**, or the account is not connected. * Fix: open **Manage scope** and change the agent's row. If the account is missing, connect it again. Connecting or saving fails with "Your subscription isn't active." * Cause: your Squad subscription is not active. * Fix: resubscribe. See [Manage your subscription](/docs/billing). An agent says the LinkedIn connection has expired. * Cause: the sign-in for that account is no longer valid. * Fix: use **Reconnect** on the account. ## Common questions Each LinkedIn account has an access level: **Read-only**, **Read + post**, and **Full access**. Squad refuses any agent action outside that level. You can also narrow or block single agents under **Per-agent access**. Click **+ Account** on the LinkedIn card to connect another account. Agents use the primary account unless they are asked to use a specific one. Open the account menu (⋯) on the LinkedIn account and click **Disconnect**. Agents lose access to that account at once. ## Related pages Use this when an action you need is not in this app.
