Summary

Send a LinkedIn message to a person or into an existing conversation thread, with an optional action to manage that conversation after sending. The request is asynchronous; place a Wait node immediately after this operation and set Resume to “On Webhook Call” to receive the results.

Inputs

  • Person URL — Public or hashed LinkedIn profile URL. Use this when starting a message to a person; optional if Thread ID is provided.
  • Thread ID — Existing conversation thread identifier, such as one returned by Poll Inbox. Use this instead of Person URL to reply in that thread.
  • Message Text (required) — Message to send; the field description specifies a maximum of 1,900 characters.
  • Manage Conversation After Sending — Optionally archive or unarchive, star or unstar, or mute or unmute the same conversation after sending. Choose None to skip.

Output shape

An asynchronous operation result delivered through the required Wait node's webhook resume.

The operation notice says results will not be received without a Wait node immediately after this node, configured with Resume set to “On Webhook Call”. The provided source pack omits implementation bodies, so it does not establish the exact result fields or whether Person URL or Thread ID takes precedence if both are supplied.

Examples

Example 1: Send a message to a person

Provide a LinkedIn Person URL and the required Message Text.

Example 2: Reply in an existing thread

Provide the Thread ID returned by Poll Inbox and the required Message Text; leave Person URL empty.

Example 3: Send and manage the conversation

Choose Archive, Unarchive, Star, Unstar, Mute, or Unmute to apply that action to the same conversation after sending.
