For one of my websites I am using Open Graph to enrich posts shared from my website. But LinkedIn is not picking the image specified in og:image. The image is modified for the LinkedIn bot to be 200px X 200px by a simple PHP script.
I found some experiencing a similar problem (Linkedin not getting thumbnail image) but this problem is not yet solved.
The most frequently recommended resolution for an OG image is 1200 pixels x 627 pixels (1.91/1 ratio). At this size, your thumbnail will be big and stand out from the crowd. Just don't exceed the 5MB size limit.
og:image:secure_url - An alternate url to use if the webpage requires HTTPS. og:image:type - A MIME type for this image. og:image:width - The number of pixels wide. og:image:height - The number of pixels high.
I know it's old but this helped.
