Dear Makers,
I am encountering an issue when trying to establish a connection between Make and LinkedIn for an automation workflow. Despite having the Share on LinkedIn product provisioned to my LinkedIn application, and the w_member_social scope being the only one requested in Make’s configuration, I receive the following error upon attempting to authenticate:
The Error Message :
{“message”:“The request failed due to failure of a previous request.”,“code”:“SC424”,“suberrors”:[{“message”:“[unauthorized_scope_error] Scope "r_liteprofile" is not authorized for your application”,“name”:“InvalidConfigurationError”}]}
The scopes configured in my LinkedIn Developer Portal do not include r_liteprofile, and I have verified that the w_member_social scope should be sufficient for my intended use, which is to post content to LinkedIn. Here are the current scopes listed in my LinkedIn app:
openid
profile
w_member_social
email
I have followed the standard setup process and ensured that the redirect URI matches in both Make and the LinkedIn Developer Portal. However, I am still facing this authorization issue, which seems to suggest that the r_liteprofile scope is being requested by Make.
Could you please assist me in resolving this discrepancy? Is there a way to customize the scopes that Make requests during the OAuth flow, or is there an update needed on the platform to align with the current scopes supported by LinkedIn?
I would appreciate any guidance or steps you can provide to help me successfully connect Make to LinkedIn without this scope error.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
