LinkedIn + Claude

Drive LinkedIn (profile + shared posts) for the authenticated user from any AI agent. Limited scope: most LinkedIn features require Marketing Developer Platform approval. 5 tools, OAuth2 Bearer auth.

Requisitos previos

Las instrucciones de configuración completas están incluidas en el conector (visibles en el store al seleccionarlo). Las variables de entorno requeridas:

LINKEDIN_ACCESS_TOKEN

Paso 1 — Obtener credenciales

microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/).

HEAVY GATING: LinkedIn's API is one of the most restricted public APIs. Most useful endpoints (read posts, search profiles, fetch connections, manage company pages) require Marketing Developer Platform approval from LinkedIn — a partnership program with significant requirements (existing app + revenue commitments).

What WORKS without partnership:

  • 'Sign in with LinkedIn using OpenID Connect' product scopes: openid, profile, email, w_member_social (post on behalf of user).

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Paso 2 — Instalar el adapter

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Paso 3 — Añadir el conector en Claude

Ruta recomendada — funciona en claude.ai web sin tocar ningún archivo de configuración.
