We have a platform that uses LinkedIn to signup/in. There is a confusing permission that has been added by default into my list of permissions
w_member_social
This is causing our users to drop off because the description is "Manage your organization's page and post updates"
Does anyone know how/where I can change this? Searched far and wide without results.
Tried editing the API access params, tried making a new application (client/secret pair)
list of permissions should not have any write privileges i.e the following 1.) w_member_social 2.) rw_company_admin 3.) w_share
You need to specify the permission scopes within your OAuth request to LinkedIn. If your use case is to Sign In with LinkedIn, your OAuth authorization request should resemble:
https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=xxxxxxxx&redirect_uri=https://www.yoursite.com/oauth2/callback&state=fooobar&scope=r_liteprofile%20r_emailaddress
