Sharing a Video on LinkedIn

Updated July 26, 2024 00:35

If you have a personal or company page on LinkedIn, you can post organic video content to the page directly from the SundaySky Video Platform.

Following are the key points to know about sharing a video on LinkedIn:

If you are posting to a LinkedIn company page, you need to be a Super Admin of that page.
The video needs to be approved for sharing before it can be shared on LinkedIn.
When watching a video inside LinkedIn, the buttons in scenes are not clickable. We therefore recommend that you not include buttons in the video that you are sharing.
Once a video is shared on LinkedIn, any edits made to the video in the SundaySky platform will not affect the shared version. If you would like the edits to be seen in LinkedIn, you'll need to approve the video edits and then share the video again.
For in-depth information on sharing a video in general, see Sharing a Video.

1.	On the Video Page, click the Share tab.
2.	Make sure that the video status is Approved to share.

3.	Click LinkedIn on the right side of the page.

4.	(Optional) If this is the first time that you are sharing a video on LinkedIn, connect your account to LinkedIn.

5.	(Optional) If your video includes personalization, you can create a viewer profile that defines what content is included in the video that you are posting.

6.	Preview the video to make sure that it looks exactly as you expect.
7.	Click Use This Video.

	The Share on LinkedIn window is displayed with: a. A static preview of the LinkedIn post. Note that this is only a visual approximation. b. The name of the page on which the video will be posted. If you'd like to change to a different page, see Switching to a Different Page After Connecting.

8.	Enter a description that will be displayed in the LinkedIn post. ▶ This field is mandatory. ▶ You can also add hashtags to describe the post.

9.	Click Post Now at the bottom of the window.
10.	Go to your LinkedIn page to see the video that you posted. ▶ To go directly to the posted video, click Copy Post URL on the green confirmation message (bottom of page) and then paste the URL in the browser.


	On the Video Page, the video status is updated to Shared and a timestamp is added next to LinkedIn. Hovering over the timestamp displays the user who shared the video.
