Creating credential

Setting up Linked API in n8n requires two steps: getting your API tokens and creating credential. This guide walks you through both steps.

Getting your tokens

1. Sign up at Linked API Platform.
2. Choose your plan and start your 7-day free trial.
3. Connect your LinkedIn account (it takes about 2 minutes).
4. Copy your tokens from the dashboard (as shown below):

Creating n8n credential

1. In your n8n workflow, add any Linked API action.
2. Click the "Create new credential" in the action settings.

3. Paste your tokens into the displayed fields.

4. Click "Save". Your credential is now ready to use.

Multiple LinkedIn accounts

If you manage multiple LinkedIn accounts, create a separate credential for each one. Every account has its own Identification Token, while the Linked API Token remains the same. You can then switch between accounts by selecting different credentials.
