I am working to integration LinkedIn API to fetch company posts.

I have followed document with below linkedIn link: https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/v2/oauth2-client-credentials-flow

Getting error:

access_denied: This application is not allowed to create application tokens.

and also I am accessing API of activity feeds (https://api.linkedin.com/v2/activityFeeds?q=networkShares) but getting below error:

Not enough permissions to access: GET-networkShares /activityFeeds

Answer 1

You have to contact the LinkedIn to grant the permission to your application

This is the message from LinkedIn

By default, your application will not have the ability to use LinkedIn's client credentials flow. Contact us to have your application granted permission to use this flow.

Once you have successfully registered an Application and met the other requirements for a particular API, you will be given Access Credentials for your Application. “Access Credentials” means the necessary security keys, secrets, tokens, and other credentials to access the applicable APIs. The Access Credentials enable us to associate your API activity with your Application and the Members using it. All activities that occur using your Access Credentials are your responsibility. Keep your Access Credentials secret. Do not sell, share, transfer, or sublicense them to any other party other than your employees or independent contractors in accordance with Section 3.1 below. Do not try to circumvent them and do not require your users to obtain their own Access Credentials to use your Application (for example, in an attempt to circumvent call limits).

Please refer their API Terms of Use for more help. Especially section 2

• Access to the APIs
