The LinkedIn integration provides access to read LinkedIn OpenID profile data and publish member posts through the Integrate MCP server.

## Installation

The LinkedIn integration is included with the SDK:

```typescript
import { linkedinIntegration } from "integrate-sdk/server";
```

## Setup

### 1. Create a LinkedIn OAuth App

1. Go to [Linkedin Developer Portal](https://www.linkedin.com)
2. Create a new OAuth application
3. Configure your redirect URI
4. Note your Client ID and Client Secret

### 2. Configure the Integration on Your Server

Add the LinkedIn integration to your server configuration. The integration automatically reads `LINKEDIN_CLIENT_ID` and `LINKEDIN_CLIENT_SECRET` from your environment variables:

```typescript
import { createMCPServer, linkedinIntegration } from "integrate-sdk/server";

export const { client: serverClient } = createMCPServer({
  apiKey: process.env.INTEGRATE_API_KEY,
  integrations: [
    linkedinIntegration({
      scopes: ["openid", "profile", "email", "w_member_social"], // Optional
    }),
  ],
});
```

You can override the environment variables by passing explicit values:

```typescript
linkedinIntegration({
  clientId: process.env.CUSTOM_LINKEDIN_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.CUSTOM_LINKEDIN_SECRET,
      scopes: ["openid", "profile", "email", "w_member_social"], // Optional
});
```

### 3. Client-Side Usage

The default client automatically includes all integrations. You can use it directly:

```typescript
import { client } from "integrate-sdk";

await client.authorize("linkedin");
const result = await client.linkedin.getUserinfo({});

console.log(result);
```

If you're using a custom client, add the integration to the integrations array:

```typescript
import { createMCPClient, linkedinIntegration } from "integrate-sdk";

const customClient = createMCPClient({
  integrations: [linkedinIntegration()],
});
```
