::: tip 🔑 Credentials
You can find authentication information for this node [here](../../../credentials/LinkedIn/README.md).

## Example Usage
This workflow allows you to download an image and post it on LinkedIn. You can also find the [workflow](https://n8n.io/workflows/681) on the website. This example usage workflow would use the following two nodes.
- [Start](../../core-nodes/Start/README.md)
- [HTTP Request](../../core-nodes/HTTPRequest/README.md)
- [LinkedIn]
The final workflow should look like the following image.
