LinkedIn — Create post

The post body. Plain text; newlines preserved. Any bare URL in the text auto-unfurls into LinkedIn's own link-preview card. Posted publicly ("Anyone") under the logged-in member. Confirm the exact text with the user before running this -- it creates a real, public, immediate post under their account.

Person or organization names to @mention, appended in order at the end of text (each as ' @Name'). Confirm each name with the user before running. If a name is ambiguous (multiple people share it exactly), the run throws listing candidates by headline -- re-run with the name plus enough of their headline/company/org for LinkedIn's own typeahead to narrow to exactly one match (confirmed live this works even though the matched suggestion's displayed name stays just the plain name).

Schedule the post instead of publishing immediately: the date to publish, as M/D/YYYY (e.g. "8/25/2026"), in the account's own timezone. Must be provided together with scheduleTime. Must be today or later -- a past date is refused, as is any date LinkedIn's own calendar shows as unavailable (it only allows a limited window into the future).

Schedule the post instead of publishing immediately: the time to publish, matching one of LinkedIn's own quarter-hour presets exactly, e.g. "1:00 PM", "11:45 AM". Must be provided together with scheduleDate.

Post permalink (resolves to the post); feed it to delete_post or get_post. Null when scheduled (no permalink exists until the post actually goes live).

True once this run's write immediately published a new post. False when scheduled (see `scheduled`), or when an identical post/schedule already existed and nothing new was created (see already_present / alreadyScheduled).

The post's share urn, e.g. urn:li:share:7475847938603192320. On an already_present hit this is the existing post's activity urn instead. Null when scheduled.

True if this run scheduled a post (new or already-existing) instead of publishing immediately.

The real account the post was published/scheduled under, echoed from the session/UI.

When scheduled is true, the scheduled-posts panel's own confirmation string, e.g. "Preview of the scheduled post that will be published on Mon August 17, 2026 at 1:00 PM, click to see detail view". Null otherwise.

True if an immediate post with this exact text was already found on the account's own activity before attempting to publish -- the run stopped there instead of creating a duplicate; url/shareUrn point at that pre-existing post. Never true on a scheduling run (see alreadyScheduled for that case).

True if a scheduled post with this exact text already existed in the account's Scheduled posts queue before this run -- nothing new was scheduled; scheduledFor describes the existing entry. Only meaningful when scheduleDate/scheduleTime were passed.

True if the script independently reloaded and confirmed the write: for an immediate post, the permalink actually renders the text; for a scheduled post, the Scheduled posts management panel actually lists an entry matching this body; for an already_present/alreadyScheduled hit, this is always true (the existing entry was what was matched).
