I share my experience integrating R with the LinkedIn API, focusing on personal authentication and posting processes. The documentation and workflow were complex, but with help from the rOpenSci community, I successfully navigated the challenges. I detail steps for API access, authentication, and creating posts, highlighting key obstacles like managing OAuth tokens, API products, and endpoints.

Thanks for posting this. I followed your steps and with a little thinkering was able to use LinkedIn API.

Happy to hear that! If we are lucky, Jon will one day make a package, but untill then we just have to make our custom things :)
