# LinkedIn MCP Server: Post to LinkedIn from Claude or ChatGPT **Source:** https://posteverywhere.ai/mcp/linkedin --- LinkedIn API # LinkedIn MCP Server **PostEverywhere runs a hosted MCP server at `https://mcp.posteverywhere.ai`, and LinkedIn is one of the 11 platforms it publishes to.** A LinkedIn MCP server lets an AI assistant publish to LinkedIn by calling tools rather than driving a browser. You paste one URL into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client, and the assistant can then draft, schedule, review and publish LinkedIn posts on your behalf, using the LinkedIn API underneath. Most LinkedIn MCP servers on GitHub are scrapers: they read profiles, harvest connections, or automate outreach, and they tend to break when LinkedIn changes its markup. PostEverywhere is a publishing server. It writes to LinkedIn through the official API on accounts you have authorised, which is why it keeps working and why it can post to company pages as well as personal profiles. It is included on every plan from [$29/mo](https://posteverywhere.ai/pricing), alongside the [REST API](https://posteverywhere.ai/social-media-api). If you would rather schedule LinkedIn from a dashboard, that is our [LinkedIn scheduler](https://posteverywhere.ai/linkedin-scheduler). ## Connect it to your assistant One URL, no separate LinkedIn credentials to manage. Connect the server once and every platform you have authorised, including LinkedIn, becomes available to the assistant.

An assistant picks the right one by name when you say "post this to the company page, not my profile". ### Link preview cards Post a URL with no image attached and PostEverywhere builds LinkedIn's article payload server-side, producing the clickable preview card with thumbnail, title and description. ### Draft for human approval Ask for a draft and nothing publishes. The post lands in your PostEverywhere account for review, and goes live only when you approve it. ### Per-platform copy One instruction can post a long, formal version to LinkedIn and a shorter one everywhere else, using per-platform content overrides. ## What you actually type No commands or syntax. You describe the outcome and the assistant calls the tools: “Draft a LinkedIn post for the PostEverywhere company page about our new MCP server, keep it professional, include the link to posteverywhere.ai/mcp, and schedule it for Tuesday 9am UK time. Save it as a draft first so I can read it.” ## LinkedIn specifics worth knowing ### Attaching an image suppresses the preview card LinkedIn renders either an image or an article card, never both. If you want the clickable link preview, post the URL with no media attached. This is the single most common mistake when publishing to LinkedIn programmatically. ### Preview cards cannot be fixed after posting LinkedIn builds the card at publish time. If a post goes out without one, the only remedy is to delete and recreate it, so use draft mode when the card matters. ### Company pages need an admin authorisation Connecting a company page requires an account with admin rights on that page. Personal profiles authorise themselves. ## LinkedIn MCP server FAQs ### What is a LinkedIn MCP server? An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes LinkedIn publishing as tools an AI assistant can call. Instead of you opening LinkedIn, the assistant drafts and schedules the post directly. PostEverywhere's hosted server exposes 33 tools and works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex and any other MCP client. ### Can an AI agent post to a LinkedIn company page? Yes. Personal profiles and company pages both connect, and the assistant chooses between them by name. Connecting a company page requires admin rights on that page. ### Is this a scraper? No. It publishes through the official LinkedIn API on accounts you have explicitly authorised. It does not scrape profiles, harvest connections or automate outreach. ### Can I review posts before they go live? Yes. Ask the assistant for a draft and nothing publishes until you approve it. Drafts appear in your PostEverywhere account and can be listed, edited or scheduled later. ### How much does it cost? The MCP server is included on every plan: Starter $29/mo, Growth $39/mo and Pro $79/mo. Every plan starts with a 7-day trial; a card is required and there is no free plan. ## Publish to LinkedIn from your assistant The hosted MCP server, the REST API and all 33 tools are included on every plan.
