LinkedIn social sign in

You can enable users to sign up and sign in using their LinkedIn credentials. To enable this, you’ll need a LinkedIn app and some developer know-how.

1. Go to the LinkedIn developer space and select Create app.
2. Complete the details, including name, logo, company LinkedIn page, privacy policy link, etc.
3. Select Create app.
4. In the Products tab, select Request access on the Sign in with LinkedIn tile.
5. Agree to the terms and conditions to continue. You can now view the endpoints.

1. Go to the Auth tab.
2. In the Auth 2.0 settings area, select the edit icon next to the Authorized redirect URLs for your app.
3. Paste the Callback URL you copied from Kinde, above.
4. In the same tab, copy the Client ID and Client Secret and paste them in a text file or somewhere you can easily copy them.

For additional help, see the LinkedIn docs.

1. In Kinde, go to Settings > Authentication.
2. In the Social connections section, select Add connection.
3. In the window that appears, select LinkedIn, then select Save. LinkedIn now appears in the Social connections list.
4. On the LinkedIn tile, select Configure.
5. Paste the Client ID and Client secret from the LinkedIn app into the relevant fields.
6. Select which applications will allow LinkedIn SSO.
7. Select Save.

Users will now see LinkedIn as an option to sign up and sign in to the selected applications.
