Why does LinkedIn publishing fail in Renowned, and how can it be fixed?

LinkedIn publishing failures in Renowned are often caused by expired permissions for the LinkedIn connection. LinkedIn requires users to renew permissions every 60 days to maintain account security. When these permissions expire, Renowned cannot automatically publish posts to your LinkedIn account. Fortunately, this issue can be resolved by reconnecting your LinkedIn account in Renowned.

Why do LinkedIn permissions expire?

LinkedIn enforces a 60-day expiration policy for third-party application permissions to ensure user accounts remain secure. This means that any application connected to LinkedIn, including Renowned, will lose access after 60 days unless the connection is renewed.
