Linkedin API | Publish a linkedin post with PDF attached file

 To publish a LinkedIn post with a PDF attached file using the LinkedIn API, you will need to do the following:

  1. Obtain an access token: To use the LinkedIn API, you will need to obtain an access token by creating an app and authenticating the user.

  2. Create a LinkedIn post: Use the "share" API endpoint to create a LinkedIn post. You can include the PDF file as an attachment to the post.

  3. Publish the post: Once you have created the post, use the "submit" API endpoint to publish the post to LinkedIn.

Here is an example of how you might use the LinkedIn API to publish a post with a PDF attached:

POST https://api.linkedin.com/v2/shares Headers: - Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN> - Content-Type: application/json Body: { "author": "urn:li:person:<USER_ID>", "lifecycleState": "PUBLISHED", "specificContent": { "com.linkedin.ugc.ShareContent": { "shareCommentary": { "text": "Check out this PDF!" }, "shareMediaCategory": "NONE", "media": [ { "title": { "text": "PDF file" }, "description": { "text": "PDF file description" }, "media": "https://www.example.com/pdf.pdf", "status": "READY" } ] } }, "visibility": { "com.linkedin.ugc.MemberNetworkVisibility": "PUBLIC" } }

This will create a LinkedIn post with the text "Check out this PDF!" and a PDF file attached. The PDF file will be hosted at the specified URL. Once the post has been created, you can use the "submit" API endpoint to publish it to LinkedIn.
