LinkedIn OAuth Provider deprecated in favour of LinkedIn (OIDC) Provider

Nov 24, 2023

LinkedIn has modified the required scopes for their API and OAuth Applications created prior to 1st Aug 2023 do not contain the appropriate scopes. This could cause errors when attempting to sign in with OAuth via LinkedIn. If you have LinkedIn provider enabled on your project a follow up notification will be sent to your email as you could potentially have a LinkedIn OAuth application created before 1st Aug 2023 and be affected. As we don't have access to LinkedIn OAuth configuration we cannot tell with certainty when your OAuth application was created and have to reach out to all users with LinkedIn enabled.

To adjust to this change, we have introduced a new LinkedIn (OIDC) provider which contains the new required scopes and we have deprecated the existing LinkedIn provider.

If you are using a LinkedIn OAuth Application created before 1st August 2023 we ask that you create a new LinkedIn application and migrate your Dashboard credentials from the deprecated LinkedIn provider to the new LinkedIn (OIDC) provider as shown in the screenshot below. Please do so before 4th Jan 2024 as we will be removing the provider from the dashboard then.
