Before you start
- For your profile: your LinkedIn sign-in.
- For a company page: you are a page admin with the Super admin or Content admin role. Analysts cannot post. See Get the right admin role on a LinkedIn Page.
- You are the owner or an admin of the Skylane workspace. Other roles cannot connect accounts.
Steps
- Step 1
Open Accounts in Skylane
In the left-hand menu, click Accounts. Scroll to the Connect an account section, where each network has its own card.
Where to find it in Skylane- Accounts
- Connect an account

Click Connect profile or page
On the LinkedIn card, click Connect profile or page. LinkedIn's sign-in screen opens.

Sign in and click Allow
Sign in to LinkedIn and click Allow to give Skylane access.
- Step 4
Choose what to add
Back in Skylane, a box called Choose what to add from LinkedIn appears. Tick each one you want to schedule to - each counts as one social account on your plan - then click the Add button (it shows how many you ticked, for example Add 1 account). Your profile and every page you can post to are listed.

Check it says Connected
Under Connected accounts, your profile or page now shows a green Connected badge. You can click Queue times next to it to set the days and times you like to post.
Where to find it in Skylane- Accounts
- Connected accounts
Good to know
- LinkedIn connections expire on LinkedIn's timetable, about once a year. Skylane warns you 7 days before.
- If your page role changes, posts to that page fail until a Super admin restores it and you click Reconnect.
Common problems
My company page is not in the list
Your role on that page cannot post. Ask a Super admin to make you a Content admin, then click Reconnect.
"LinkedIn refused access - you may not have the right Page role"
Follow Get the right admin role on a LinkedIn Page, then reconnect.
"LinkedIn blocked this as a duplicate"
LinkedIn rejects the same text posted twice in a short time. Change the text and retry.
