Tag users on LinkedIn in social tool

[Cnadler]

It would be great if HubSpot could add the ability to tag users on LinkedIn in the social puclishing tool.

[Cnadler]

We wish we could do this, but we're limited by LinkedIn's API which doesn't allow for tagging users. 

[chelseapeyton]

Yes! And to allow tagging on-photo for Instagram posts. 

[cgibbons]

Let LinkedIn know your users are still asking. We need this!!! 

[michellelewis]

What is the workaround? Do I publish through Hubspot then edit in LI to add the tags? Why does LI allow tagging of companies but not connections?

[KMB28]

Yes please! 

[SanneCaseNine]

Please make this happen! That way I can actually use the planning tool👍

[twinloger]

yes, we often post corporate content from private linkedin accounts. We need to tag people (private linkedin accounts)

Tagging people from HubSpot would halve our workload on social. This feature is available in Hootsuite for both Twitter and LinkedIn accounts. I'm looking forward to an update - the original request began in 2017! What do you say HubSpot? 🙂

[JHufford]

Our team is forced to manually post each post because HS doesn't give us the ability to tag individuals. Seems like an easy fix with a big impact on social media teams.

[Raquelle]

Couldn't agree more 'JHufford'. This is long overdue. We've added comments to this post in July - could HubSpot please update us on progress. Thank you - Rach

Definitely need this! We're sharing content about our employees quite often, which means I have to go to our LinkedIn page manually to add them after I've put the content into HubSpot. Way too tedious.

[Howie50]

I agree, this would be so valuble and save us so much time as well! We currently do this for @ Mentions on: Twitter, FB, LinkedIn, Insta... It's pretty time consuming. 

[Sarah_M]

This is absolutely necessary!

[HCliffe]

Tagging individuals is integral to our LinkedIn strategy. Please add this feature so we can start using hubspot to schedule.

[tko]

Please add this feature or ask Linkedin to allow it again and again.
It does not make sense to plan all the posts in HubSpot and edit them manually after publishing.

Chiming in here to see if there are any updates on this functionality?

[JustineRandall]

Can't believe this thread started back in 2017 and no action as yet. Seems like an essential piece of functionality. We all know Linkedin is about the personal connections. If we can't include tagged people then what's the point of using HubSpot to create and schedule posts?

[HMoller]

Please add this in! Would be so useful and save tons of time.

[ambershafer]

Any update on this?  I see posts from 2018 pointing to API limitations, but surely LinkedIn has updated their API by now?  And, if not, what pressure can be asserted on LI to surface this on their end.  It's literally a best practice, endorsed by LI, which we are trying to follow.

[GMerckaert]

Yes, please! That would make it so much easier to keep everyone involved up to date about the publications on Linkedin. 

[TJPayne]

Upvoting the heck out of this. Our team needs this functionality ASAP.
