LinkedIn Social Login Integration Guide

Step 1: Obtain Client ID and Client Secret

• Log in to LinkedIn's Developer Portal and create an application. Once the application is created, LinkedIn will generate a Client ID and Client Secret.

• Here’s how to proceed with the process.

A: Visit LinkedIn Developer Portal - Go to: https://www.linkedin.com/developers - Log in with your LinkedIn account. B: Create a New App - Click on “My Apps” in the top navigation. - Click the “Create app” button.

C: Fill in App Details: You'll be asked to provide the following: - App Name (e.g., JobSphere Login Tool) - LinkedIn Page (your company’s LinkedIn page – required) - App Logo (100x100 PNG or JPG) - Business Email - Accept the LinkedIn API Terms of Use - Click Create app after filling in the details.

D: Get Client ID and Client Secret - Once your app is created, go to the Auth tab of your app dashboard. - Here, you'll see - Client ID and Client Secret (Click “Show” to reveal) - Copy both for your application’s OAuth setup.

• Important: The client must share these credentials with the Artha Support Team, who will add them to the backend. The client does not need to configure or add them anywhere.

• Ensure that the callback/redirect URL is set correctly in LinkedIn's Developer Portal: baseUrl/jobsseekers/login

• Once Artha Support confirms the integration, the client can test the login.

Step 2: Verify Application Settings

• Ensure Correct Branding:

  • The application name, logo, and other branding settings should reflect the client’s identity.

• Confirm Redirect URL:

  • The redirect URL configured in LinkedIn Developer Portal should match the one provided above.

Step 3: Testing & Confirmation

• The Client should wait for confirmation from Artha Support before testing.

• Perform login tests to ensure smooth user authentication and correct branding.

• Check for Artha Branding: Ensure no references to Artha (e.g., logos, names) appear.

Step 4: Deployment & Monitoring

• Once confirmed, the social login will be active.

• Monitor login success rates via analytics or server logs.

• Regularly review credentials and rotate the Client Secret as per security best practices.
