LinkedIn scheduler
Schedule LinkedIn posts in advance. Original posts publish to a profile automatically; comments and reposts are published by hand, because LinkedIn offers no API for them.
Connect a LinkedIn profile and original posts publish themselves at the times you scheduled.
What publishes automatically
| What you post | How it goes out |
|---|---|
| Testimonial | Automatically |
| Repost | You publish it, after a reminder |
| Reply | You publish it, after a reminder |
LinkedIn's API for individual members covers writing a post to your own feed and nothing else. There is no endpoint for commenting on someone else's post or for reposting one, so those two take the assisted route: the author gets a message at the scheduled time with their text ready to paste and the launch announcement attached.
That split is not a limitation of this product, and no scheduler can publish a LinkedIn comment for you. What LaunchGenius does is make the hand-published half arrive on time and in order rather than leaving it on a list.
Limits
LinkedIn counts 3,000 characters. The composer folds the preview where LinkedIn folds it, which is early: the first two lines decide whether anyone presses "more".
Numbers
Posts on LinkedIn are not measured.
This is the one honest gap in the reporting, and it is worth being plain about. LinkedIn does publish analytics for posts written from a company page, but a post from a personal profile reports nothing an outside tool can read. Rather than show a zero that looks like a failed launch, the report says the numbers are unavailable.
What is still counted for LinkedIn posts, because LaunchGenius counts it directly: whether the post published, how close to its scheduled time, and how many people opened its tracked link.
What you connect
Connecting asks LinkedIn for your name, your profile picture, your email address, and permission to post to your feed on your instruction.
