Configure the LinkedIn provider for portals
As explained in Configure ah OAuth 2.0 provider for portals, LinkedIn is one of several identity providers that use the OAuth 2.0 protocol. To get started with configuring LinkedIn as the identity provider, select Configure from the provider settings page.

On the identity provider configuration steps, you'll see a Reply URL for your portal in step 1. You need to create an app in LinkedIn with this reply URL.

- Enter the app details, such as Application Name and Description.
- Enter the portal URL, such as
https://contoso.powerappsportals.com
. - Set OAuth User Agreement/Default Scope:

andr\_emailaddress
. - Enter the OAuth 2.0 Reply URL from the identity provider configuration step 1. For example,
https://portal.contoso.com/signin-linkedin
.
Select Add Application.
Step 2. Configure site settings
After you've created the app in LinkedIn, configure the site settings for the provider:
- Client ID: A unique app ID generated by LinkedIn for your app.
