Animated gifs in LinkedIn

Hi, 

Can anyone give me a defined yes or no to the question, Can you use animated gifs in a LinkedIn post when using Hubspot to schedule them? A lot of answers aren't very clear and were posted back in 2021. I'm wondering if things have advanced since then.

Animated gifs in LinkedIn

Hey @EstherG, thank you for posting in our Community!

 

As of now, LinkedIn does not support animated GIFs in posts, regardless of whether they are posted directly on the platform or scheduled through third-party tools like HubSpot. When you upload an animated GIF, it will appear as a static image on LinkedIn.

 

For animated content, consider using short video clips instead, as LinkedIn supports video uploads. You can schedule these video posts through HubSpot without any issues.

 

I hope this helps,

Pam
