Limitations

First Comment, Comments Inbox, and Messaging Inbox

Blotato does not support First Comment, Comments Inbox, Messaging Inbox, or DM automations for LinkedIn. These engagement features support Instagram and Facebook only.

LinkedIn restricts access to the comment and messaging API endpoints Blotato needs. Blotato is seeking approved API access, with no release date.

Some tools use browser extensions that store LinkedIn session cookies as a workaround. Blotato does not use this method because it violates LinkedIn's terms.

Videos in carousels

LinkedIn's API does not support video media in carousels. You cannot add videos to LinkedIn carousels through Blotato or any third-party tool.

---

Articles

LinkedIn's API does not support publishing LinkedIn Articles. You cannot publish Articles through Blotato or any third-party tool.

---

Polls

Blotato does not support publishing LinkedIn polls yet.

LinkedIn has a Poll Post API, but Blotato has not added poll publishing to the web app, API, n8n node, Make.com module, or MCP tools.

To publish a LinkedIn poll today, create it directly in LinkedIn or use another tool that supports LinkedIn poll publishing.

---

Reposting

LinkedIn's API does not support reposting an existing LinkedIn post. To repost a post (so it shows the original preview), open LinkedIn manually and click Repost on the post. Blotato will integrate native reposting when LinkedIn makes it available via API.

50 posts per 24h per profile and per Page

Blotato limits LinkedIn publishing to 50 posts per 24 hours per profile and per company Page. Your LinkedIn profile and each connected company Page each have their own independent 50-post limit, so posts to one do not count against another.

Example: You connect your LinkedIn profile and 2 company Pages. Your profile publishes up to 50 posts, and each company Page publishes up to 50 posts, in the same 24-hour window.
