LinkedIn token revoked

[Florian]

I have a simple automation that takes a wordpress post and posts it to my facebook page, my linkedin account and my twitter account.
Test runs work flawlessly, formatting and everything just works fine. But after a while my tokens get revoked with the linkedin integration resulting in an unreliable automation. It is also not clear to my why it gets revoked. It seems that all that I was able to do is do the test runs but the intergration does not really work on a regular basis and I have no clue what to do.

Thank you for your fast reply. But the weird thing is that I only use ONE connection to Linkedin via Pabbly. The reset comes after a while for now apparent reason.
And I can't think of any other api connection to Linkedin.
Any clue what still could cause the issue?

Hey @Florian !

Can you please confirm if you have not used to connect the same LinkedIn account of yours with any other Pabbly connect account besides your own.

As the issue arises when a single connection of LinkedIn account is also used in another Pabbly Connect account, also if you have created a new connection but lateron used a previously added connection, then also the issue may arise.

Hope, to hear from you soon.

I can most defenitely confirm that I have NOT connected my LinkedIn account to anything remotely Pabbly connect related. Only one integration. I had a clone of the same rule that, but that one was set to offline and I just deleted it now. And I only had this clone due to the bug in the first place. So I cloned the rule to be able to fix the bug.

Hey @Florian

Kindly try deleting all the credentials of Linkedin from the action step and try connecting your account with the fresh connection.

Note - The Access token of LinkedIn only has a validity of 90 days, afterwards you have again connect your account.

90 days! OH MY! And there's no way in hell one can raise that to more days?
90 days, that's a joke! What are you doing LinkedIn?!

Hey @Florian

We would like to correct our last reply, the Linkedin API's token works for 365 days (1 Year) only if the Linkedin action step is in use continuously.

But if Linkedin's API is not being used in your automation for less than 60 days then you have to again re-authenticate with the fresh connection.

Please check out the following documents for your better understanding.
