What upTake reads from LinkedIn

upTake reads nothing from LinkedIn: this connector only posts, and only when you press Send. When you connect, LinkedIn gives upTake your name and an identifier, to post as you and to link to each post once it is out.

How to connect LinkedIn

1. You need an upTake project first; creating one takes 5 minutes.
2. Click Connect on the Integrations page: a LinkedIn window opens.
3. Sign in there and approve the access. upTake never sees your LinkedIn password.

On the LinkedIn side, see LinkedIn's Posts API documentation.

Where LinkedIn fits in your workflow

The capture below shows the upTake view used in this part of the workflow. It uses fictional IndiePDF data to explain the interface; it is not a LinkedIn customer result or a screenshot of your account.

What you see afterwards

In Write, the post written for LinkedIn gets a Send button: it shows you the post as it will appear, then publishes it with its tagged link as a preview, so the visits it brings are measured like any other post.

What upTake never reads

upTake never reads your messages, your contacts or your feed on LinkedIn, and never posts on its own: only the drafts you send.

Whatever you connect, the IP addresses of your visitors are never stored, and the keys and accesses you give are stored encrypted and never sent back to your browser.

Good to know

You can disconnect LinkedIn at any time from the Integrations page: upTake stops at once, and what was already imported stays in your project until you delete it. Your data is hosted in the European Union, and you can export all of it, or delete your account, from Settings.
