How to connect LinkedIn and Captions
Create a New Scenario to Connect LinkedIn and Captions
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a LinkedIn, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, LinkedIn or Captions will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find LinkedIn or Captions, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the LinkedIn Node
Select the LinkedIn node from the app selection panel on the right.



Configure the LinkedIn
Click on the LinkedIn node to configure it. You can modify the LinkedIn URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the Captions Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the LinkedIn node, select Captions from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Captions.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring LinkedIn, Captions, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the LinkedIn and Captions integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between LinkedIn and Captions (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
