I have a website that let people share content on their LinkedIn page. The webpage has a button that calls the shareArticle endpoint of linkedIn:
Example:
https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle/?mini=true&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.infojobs.net%2Fmadrid%2Fingeniero-datos-azure-100-remoto%2Fof-ibd7c0884e144f3b9ec8dfcbe9acd39%2Fnv-oAd-emLk&title=Ingeniero+de+Datos+en+Azure+100%25+remoto+-+SADE+Consultoria+Tecnica&summary=Desde+SADE%2C+estamos+buscando+un+Ingeniero+de+Datos+altamente+cualificado+para+unirse+a+nuestro+equipo.+El+candidato+ideal+ser%C3%A1+un+experto+en+tecnolog%C3%ADas+de+Azure%2C+con+experiencia+espec%C3%ADfica+en+Azure
But i get an error from linkedIn:
The error says: There’s a problem – refresh the page
I tried also without adding summary (https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle/?mini=true&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.infojobs.net%2Fmadrid%2Fingeniero-datos-azure-100-remoto%2Fof-ibd7c0884e144f3b9ec8dfcbe9acd39%2Fnv-oAd-emLk&title=Ingeniero+de+Datos+en+Azure+100%25+remoto+-+SADE+Consultoria+Tecnica) and still fails.
The same issue happened months ago but seems like linkedIn did something on their side because it was solved without changing anything from my website.
I opened a ticket to linkedIn support and they suggested me to create a post on stackoverflow, so here I am 😀
Anyone has faced that issue and knows how to solve it or what’s missing? Thank you!
What i tried:
-
Tried several URLs or changing the version of the endpoint (saw on another stackoverflow post). But the problem still persist.
-
Opened tickets to linkedIn support but didn’t get a solution.
