LinkedIn Login Integration Kit

Register PingFederate as a Microsoft Application

To allow PingFederate to process social sign-on requests with LinkedIn, add PingFederate as an OAuth application in the LinkedIn admin console.

Steps

  1. Sign on to https://developer.linkedin.com/ using a LinkedIn developer account.

  2. Click Create App.

  3. Complete the Create an app form, then click Create app.

  4. Click the Auth tab.

  5. In the Application credentials section, note the Client ID and Client Secret.

    You’ll use these in Configuring an adapter instance.

  6. In the OAuth 2.0 settings section, click the Edit icon.

  7. Enter the callback endpoint of the LinkedIn IdP Adapter, such as https://pf.example.com:9031/ext/linkedin-authn. Click Update.

    The default endpoint is /linkedin-authn. If you set a custom endpoint here, enter the matching value in the Authorization Callback Endpoint field of your adapter instance configuration in Configuring an adapter instance.
