Thinking back about it, I think it was hard because my first mistake was not to read the LinkedIn documentation carefully enough. So, don’t make the same mistake as me, it’s here. If you are as lazy as me, go ahead, I’ll explain everything anyway!

1. Create a LinkedIn App

The first step of all is to create an application on LinkedIn. It’s pretty straight forward. Go here, then My apps, and “Create an App”.
