How do I get the URL of a LinknedIn post from the URN or id?

I am able to post to LinkedIn via the API and I get the URN/id of the post returned, but I don't know how to get the actual URL of the post using the returned URN. I cannot find the information anywhere in the API documentation.

Solution

  • In case you have a share or ugcPost, the following URL is valid:

    https://www.linkedin.com/embed/feed/update/<urn>

    or, for embedded content:

    https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/<urn>

    as example:

    https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:share:<share-id>

    or

    https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:ugcPost:<ugc-post-id>
