LinkedIn share url without javascript?

Question

I've read the docs here: https://developer.linkedin.com/documents/share-linkedin

But even their example url at the bottom of the page just loads a spinner.

Does anyone know how to successfully create a LinkedIn share url?

The example at the bottom of the page is working for me. Maybe you need to logged in, to get to work. – Breastpin

Create a fiddle which has a working example. – Breastpin

Answer 1

I've tried using the following endpoint and query string and it worked: https://www.linkedin.com/cws/share?url=http://www.myurl.com

If you want to have regularly-maintained and updated URLs of this stuff, you should import a package from a github project or some other project that's active.

Yes, long ago, circa 2010, you could use this URL...

https://www.linkedin.com/cws/share?url={url}

And then, circa 2016, you could only use a URL like this...

https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?url={url}&title={title}&summary={text}&source={provider}

And now, 2020, May, you can only use a URL like this...

https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url={url}

Wouldn't it be easier to have someone else figure this out for you and just update the URL's as needed? I have been maintaining a Github Repo that's been tracking social-share URL formats since 2012. Why don't you check it out? : Github: Social Share URLs.

Why not join in on all the social share url's?
