# LinkedIn List Posts

<!-- meta: type=linkedin-list-posts; location=Social › LinkedIn; category=Step (action); platforms=Joomla and WordPress (where applicable) -->

## Overview

LinkedIn List Posts is a **Step (action)** in **Social › LinkedIn**. Lists recent posts from a LinkedIn organization page.

When the flow reaches this step, JOrchestrator executes **LinkedIn List Posts** against your linked site or an external integration, using the field values you set on **General** and **Design**. Downstream steps can read the output payload fields defined for this node.

## Why use this node

LinkedIn List Posts is a **action step** in the **Social › LinkedIn** group. Action steps run in the middle or end of a flow. They perform work on your CMS, call external services, or transform data for the next step.

Typical reasons teams add **LinkedIn List Posts** to a flow:

- Automate "LinkedIn List Posts" as part of a larger Joomla or WordPress workflow
- Replace manual linkedin work with a repeatable, logged flow step
- Chain with triggers, logic, and messaging nodes on the same canvas

## Example workflows

Common patterns on the canvas:

1. **Trigger or Webhook** → upstream steps → **LinkedIn List Posts** → **Send Email** or CMS update
2. **Scheduled trigger** → **LinkedIn List Posts** → **Debug** (while testing) → production action

## How to set it up

Optional Organization ID override and Limit (default 10, max 100).

## Good to know

Outputs posts array with id, commentary, lifecycleState, and createdAt per item.

## Properties panel

The designer shows these tabs for this node:

| Tab | Purpose |
|-----|---------|
| **Info** | Plain-language description and output payload fields for downstream steps |
| **General** | Canvas label and read-only node ID |
| **AI** | Optional assistant to help draft settings from plain language |
| **Design** | Node-specific configuration fields |

### System (automatic — not edited by the user)

These fields are managed by the designer or runtime — you do not type into them directly:

| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|--------------|-------|------|----------|--------------|-------|
| `_nodeId` | Node ID | `node-id` | No | — | — |
| `_payloadFields` | Available Fields | `payload-panel` | No | — | — |

### User-configured — General tab

| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|--------------|-------|------|----------|--------------|-------|
| `label` | Label | `text` | No | — | Node label |

### User-configured — Design tab

| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|--------------|-------|------|----------|--------------|-------|
| `organizationId` | Organization ID (optional) | `payload-text` | No | — | Uses Joomla Node Configuration → LinkedIn default Organization ID if empty |
| `limit` | Limit | `number` (default: `10`) | No | — | Number of posts to return (max 100). |

### CMS site configuration (not on this node's properties panel)

Credentials, API keys, mailers, SMTP, and integration defaults are configured in the CMS plugin under **Node Configuration**, not per step on this node. Link the flow to a domain before testing CMS-backed fields.

## Output payload fields

After this step runs, later nodes can reference these fields using placeholders such as
`{{linkedin_list_posts.success}}`.

| Field key | Type | Description |
|-----------|------|-------------|
| `success` | boolean | Whether the operation completed successfully. |
| `organizationId` | string | Text value from this node's output. |
| `posts` | array | Array of values from this node's output. |
| `postCount` | number | Numeric value from this node's output. |
| `message` | string | Human-readable status, error, or result summary. |
