I'm having an ios App. I'm able to open the linked native app from my ios App using the custom url scheme "linkedin://". But how to post a link to the linkedin native app through my ios App. Do we have any particular parameters for that?
What are the supported parameters for linkedin URL scheme?
Thanks, Thiagesh
The default URL would look like- "linkedin.com/pub/yourname/29/890/2b9/". Whereas the URL of any in-crowd member would appear as: "linkedin.com/in/their-name." With a URL like this, you will look like a savvy LinkedIn user, and the URL will look much better whenever and wherever you post it. Enough of the waiting now.
A URL scheme is the part of a link that specifies the type of application your device uses to open a URL. Many apps support URL schemes: FaceTime uses URL schemes to make calls when a URL starting with facetime:// is opened, just like Safari handles URLs starting with http:// .
📘 URL Schemes are an advanced configuration option used to define a non-standard link format that will only open in your app and not the device browser e.g. youruniquestring://yoursite.com/path This functionality is helpful in authentication redirect flows or for a more seamless user experience.
Linkedin has changed the scheme, now it works in this way:
linkedin://profile/[id]
You can jump to a profile with:
linkedin://#profile/9999
I just tested this on my iPhone 5. Works like a charm.
