LinkedIn post scheduler
Draft once, pick your LinkedIn channel next to any other network you post to, and set the time. Postauto holds the limit of 3,000 characters against your draft, departs every channel at that minute, and tells you what LinkedIn did with it.

The rules
Taken from LinkedIn's own developer documentation, not from a marketing page.
Count your draft against this limit, and against every other network at the same time. No account needed.
| Content types | Text posts, Article links, Images (up to 9) |
|---|---|
| Character limit | 3,000 characters |
| Media rules | Up to 9 images per post via the official assets flow |
| Account requirement | Personal LinkedIn profiles via OAuth (the official Share on LinkedIn product) |
| Availability | Early access (built, we are finishing the connection) |
Early access: built, we are finishing the connection
LinkedIn tokens last about 60 days with no silent refresh; Postauto tracks expiry and prompts a one-click reconnect before posts can fail.
Departure
In the composer
Write once, tick your LinkedIn account alongside anything else you post to, and the counter runs against 3,000 characters while you type. Over the limit means you cannot schedule, not a failure tomorrow morning.
On the board
Scheduled posts line up by time. You see what leaves next, what already departed, and what needs a look, without opening anything.
After it leaves
Every channel reports separately. A LinkedIn rejection does not stop the other networks, and the network's own error text is shown on the board in plain language.
At rest
Your LinkedIn credentials are encrypted before they reach the database, are never logged in plaintext, and are decrypted only at the moment of publishing.
Per-channel results
One post, one row per channel. Departed channels carry a link to the live post; a failed channel carries the network's own error text, so you know whether to fix the wording, the media, or the connection.
Tick these next to LinkedIn in the composer and they all leave at the same time.
Text posts, Article links, Images (up to 9). Up to 9 images per post via the official assets flow.
3,000 characters. The Postauto composer checks this limit against every account you select before the post is scheduled, so nothing fails at departure time over length.
Personal LinkedIn profiles via OAuth (the official Share on LinkedIn product).
The LinkedIn integration is fully built and tested. It is in early access while we finish connecting Postauto's LinkedIn application, which is on us rather than on the network. LinkedIn tokens last about 60 days with no silent refresh; Postauto tracks expiry and prompts a one-click reconnect before posts can fail.
Company page publishing requires LinkedIn's Community Management API review and is on the Postauto roadmap. Posts publish as public posts from your profile.
Yes. One composer publishes to any mix of your connected channels, and each network's limits are checked per selected channel. Every channel departs at the same scheduled time.
Each channel reports its own result. If LinkedIn rejects a post, your other selected networks still publish, the post is marked partial, and the board shows a readable error for the failed channel.
Yes. The free plan includes 1 channel · 15 posts a month, no card required.
Next departure
Start on the free plan now; LinkedIn switches on for your account as soon as we finish connecting it, at no extra cost.
