supporting publishing to LinkedIn Groups via HubSpot Social

Why on earth would you be REMOVING this from Hubspot???  We currently use this function for scheduling social media posts including to LinkedIn Groups and now we'll have to go and do a separate task for this?  WHY???

 

Please reinstate.

Thank you

Robyn

Despite I understand this is due to Linkedin removing the relevant API, the fact that it will no longer be possible to post/share to Groups directly via HubSpot will have a major impact on the social sharing. The Linkedin Groups remain the best place to increase awareness and contacts. The HS Social Tool will be reduced massively. Will be this reinstated or not?

Posting to LinkedIn Groups for B2B marketing has been VERY successful.  Please find a way to bring this functionality back!

Hi Robyn,

 

We would absolutely love to continue supporting this, unfortunately LinkedIn is removing this capability from all of their partners. You can find out more about LinkedIn's decision here: https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/81635

 

Thanks,

Daria

This was one of our best tools--and completely frustrating! We would recieve quality leads by being able to zone in on specific groups and get content in their hands. Very disappointing and makes not only posting but tracking much more difficult. 

Thanks,

Jamie
