We are thrilled to introduce two new LinkedIn actions on IFTTT:

Share an update with image: this action will share an update with an image on your LinkedIn profile.

Share an update with video: this action will share an update with a video on your LinkedIn profile.

These features are designed to help you enhance your LinkedIn presence by seamlessly incorporating rich media content into your workflows. Whether showcasing your latest campaign or promoting your brand, these actions ensure that your LinkedIn updates are engaging and impactful.

Incorporate these actions into your existing IFTTT workflows to automate your content publishing and streamline your LinkedIn updates, making your profile more professional, engaging, and visually appealing.

How it works

These two new LinkedIn actions streamline your workflow by eliminating the need to manually upload images or videos each time you want to share content. Here’s how it works:

Add the share an update with image and/or share an update with video to your Applet: Select an Applet that uses this action or make it yourself by selecting LinkedIn after the “Then That” option in the classic Applet creation flow. For example, you might use YouTube as your trigger. If a new public video is uploaded by you, the Applet will automatically share an update with that video to your LinkedIn post.

To take your automation even further, you can use our AI LinkedIn Assistant to optimize your existing social media posts for LinkedIn’s format specifications and best practices. This ensures your content resonates with LinkedIn’s professional audience and aligns with the platform’s written style.
