How to connect LinkedIn and Motion
Create a New Scenario to Connect LinkedIn and Motion
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 Motion will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find LinkedIn or Motion, 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 Motion Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the LinkedIn node, select Motion from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Motion.

- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring LinkedIn, Motion, 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 Motion integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between LinkedIn and Motion (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect LinkedIn and Motion
LinkedIn + Motion + Google Calendar: When a new lead is identified on LinkedIn, a task is created in Motion to schedule a meeting. Once the task is created in Motion, an event is added to Google Calendar to reserve the time.
Motion + LinkedIn + Slack: Upon completion of a task in Motion, a text post is created on LinkedIn to share the achievement. Simultaneously, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel to inform the team.
