Products/Scopes Details

There is an approval/review process for each Product chosen. 'Advertising API', the product required for posting to company pages, goes through an approval cycle with the LinkedIn team. The most common Product (scope) on LinkedIn are 'Share on LinkedIn' and 'Sign In with LinkedIn'. There is an approval/review process that the app will also go through, however, this approval is required by the owner of the page.



Verify App/Company

For Share on LinkedIn and Sign In with Linked, the approval process needs to be done by the admin/owner of the page.
