How to create a LinkedIn page - linkedin

I am new to LinkedIn, but I want to know how to create a LinkedIn page via API or whatever ways that I can. So I need all information that you can give me.

If what you are trying to do is to create or edit your profile via the LinkedIn API, then this will not be possible. As per this link, they do not allow profile editing as part of the api: http://developer.linkedin.com/thread/3125

Requesting AutoFill plugin for domain

I would like to use the AutoFill Plugin to easily populate profile form fields from LinkedIn profiles into a website I have created that uses registration forms, and for users to enter a profile. I would like to use your AutoFill Plugin to offer users to fill this profile with their LinkedIn profile. In reading your documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/linkedin/consumer/integrations/self-serve/plugins/autofill-plugin
It says "domains must be allowlisted for LinkedIn AutoFill to properly function. Contact your LinkedIn representative for more information."
CanI ask to add the following domains to this allowlist?
The site is question is https://go-digital-platform.thisiscrowdlab.com/
Is it possible to also add a local dev URL http://events.local (only if possible, as the above one is more important).
Or do let me know who I should contact to add domains to the allowlist for this plugin.
Many thanks,

How can I remove post dynamically via Linkedin API?

I wonder how can I remove a post from my profile and company using API in my system. What parameter should I spend? Anyone have any idea?
There are no APIs available for removal of a LinkedIn share. It has to be done manually through the web/mobile UI.

Embedding LinkedIn company updates / feeds

We have created a SharePoint 2010 web part where we display our company feed from https://www.linkedin.com/company/"Name of Company"/.
End-users need to login the first time (that is ok). But even though they login using their personal LinkedIn profile, they cannot see our company-feed. Why is that?
If the users are set as LinkedIn Designated Admins they can see the feed, otherwise they cannot.
We are using
<script type="text/javascript" src="//platform.linkedin.com/in.js">
api_key: "The key"
lang: da_DK
authorize: true
onLoad: onLinkedInLoad
</script>
I hope someone can share their knowledge.
This is why :'( https://developer.linkedin.com/blog/posts/2015/developer-program-changes
Starting on May 12, 2015, we will be limiting the open APIs to only support the following uses:
Allowing members to represent their professional identity via their LinkedIn profile using our Profile API.
Enabling members to post certifications directly to their LinkedIn profile with our Add to Profile tools.
Enabling members to share professional content to their LinkedIn network from across the Web leveraging our Share API.
Enabling companies to share professional content to LinkedIn with our Company API.
Only people who can admin the feed can read/update to the company feed. All others are excluded unless you manage to get yourself promoted to LinkedIN partner: https://developer.linkedin.com/partner-programs
Some light on this issue over here:
As ahmeij said, Linkedin doesnt provide anymore an easy way of embedding your company/personal profile timeline anywhere. However, there is an alternative way of implementing this.
You will make use of the RSS feed of the profile. The url will be something like this:
https://www.linkedin.com/biz/[PROFILE ID]/feed?start=0&v2=true
You can find out the numeric ID in you profile/company page.

I found the way to implement a CORS proxy, and got this working.
I used this simple PHP CORS proxy
However, LinkedIn site doesn't return any information from this URL anymore, it just returns a [301 - moved permanently] error :_(
As Alberto mentioned in the post below a RSS feed can be used to create an embed code. To enable RSS on your LinkedIn and get the RSS link you can follow this guide. Then you can use this plugin to generate an embed code of the feed.
You can use a social wall solution like Walls.io to add LinkedIn company feeds to your Sharepoint website. The tool generates an iframe or JavaScript code that you can embed. Here's an article on how it works on SharePoint.

Using Facebook Connect for User Data in Drupal

I have a Drupal site where I want to allow users to add their current Facebook Events that they themselves have created into a custom database. I'm not looking to use Facebook Connect as a User Management system, just trying to get someone's info after they accept.
More specifically I'm looking for a way to access a user's Facebook events info from a Drupal Page using PHP. I want them to be able to hit a button and give me access to their events.
Did you take a look at http://drupal.org/project/fb and http://www.drupalforfacebook.org/ ?
The FB module works pretty well, is mostly sane to use, and the author is responsive to bug reports.
