# LinkedIn (/docs/integrations/linkedin)

Connect a LinkedIn company Page to Sift to pull comments and mentions on Page posts into the inbox, so your social team handles them alongside everything else.

Go to [Settings → Integrations → LinkedIn](https://app.getsift.ai/app/settings/integrations/) and sign in as a **Page admin** of the company Page you want to connect. Authorize the Sift app - that's the whole flow.

If your company has multiple Pages (e.g. brand + regional + acquired-company), each can be connected separately and routed to its own queue.

## What you can do [#what-you-can-do]

**Reply** to any inbound comment from the inbox - Sift posts back to LinkedIn as the connected Page.

**Trigger workflows** off comment signal (sentiment, keyword, author). Route to the right team automatically. **Apply auto-reply bots** for FAQ patterns.

LinkedIn's API surface for third-party tools is narrow by design: Pages only, comments + mentions only, reply-only outbound. Sift uses what's available; what isn't, isn't.

## What Sift ingests [#what-sift-ingests]

Once a Page is connected, Sift ingests every comment + reply on every post the Page has published, plus mentions of the Page from anywhere on LinkedIn. Each comment carries the author profile, the post it's on, and the timestamp - usable for filtering, routing, and bot triggers.

## Not supported today [#not-supported-today]

- **Page messages / inbox**: LinkedIn doesn't expose Page messaging to third-party apps. Handle DMs in LinkedIn directly.
- **Personal profile activity**: LinkedIn's API is Pages-only for moderation tools.
- **LinkedIn Groups**: not part of the Pages API.
- **Publishing or scheduling Page posts**: Sift handles conversation, not content scheduling. Pair Sift with a dedicated scheduler if you need that.
- **Sales Navigator / Recruiter surfaces**: separate LinkedIn products, separate APIs.
