What you can do with LinkedIn
Ask in plain language and Xenition calls the right one:

Note: LinkedIn's own live /rest/posts DELETE endpoint does NOT actually honor this on its own (a repeat delete 404s rather than returning 204 as LinkedIn's docs claim); this action compensates by treating a 404 as a suc

Give an agent access to LinkedIn
An agent you create can use LinkedIn on your behalf and keep working while you do something else. Every action an agent takes goes through an approval gate first, so nothing touches your LinkedIn account without you agreeing to it.
