    I’m trying this for the first time. I’ve created the app within the developer for Linkedin and authorized everything. But when I put the ID in, it shows as not working. Not sure why i’m not able to use the ID. The ID i’m using is from within the URL that people would visit when viewing the company page.

    Any help?

    Howdy! Thank you for writing the forums.

    What specifically are some more details of the symptom, that you are seeing or experiencing, that lets you know that it shows as not working?

    I mean for example what words do you see on the screen, or notification messages? (, or lack thereof, as it may be?)

    Additionally, if you can post a link to a screenshot of the symptom here, then I think that’d help us to troubleshoot.

    For example do you see: “Linkedin Company Updates – no valid access token found, your Linkedin feed will not display. Generate a new one here” ?

    , or perhaps “Missing client_id. A valid client_id is required to proceed.”?

    , or perhaps something else?

    As for what Company Id to use, I’d use the one that comes up when I search for a company on linkedin, and it comes up in the url. For example the one that comes up for Automattic is: https://www.linkedin.com/company-beta/58194/, so I would use 58194 as the Company Id.

    Will you write me back here with some more details, and to let us know how you go with this?

    Frustratingly I managed to get it working just as soon as I posted the question.. which is annoying ?? sorry

    Great!

    Sometimes that’s how it goes, and that’s all it takes ??

    In any case , Glad you got it working, and thanks for having written back this follow-up note.
