LinkedIn V2 “Post an article” returning 404 – No root resource defined
Hi everyone,
I’m running into a persistent issue with the LinkedIn V2 connector in Power Automate.
When using the “Post an article” action (posting to a personal LinkedIn profile), the flow fails with:
404 - No root resource defined for path '/partnerApiPostsExternalV20230601'
Details:
Posting to: Personal LinkedIn profile
Connector: LinkedIn V2
Action: Post an article
Environment region: Europe
Status code: 404
Response body:
{ "message": "No root resource defined for path '/partnerApiPostsExternalV20230601'", "status": 404 }
What I already tried:
Creating a brand new flow
Removing and recreating the LinkedIn connection
Testing different visibility values (Public / Connections)
Recreating the action from scratch
Nothing changed — same 404 response every time.
Because the error references a specific internal route (partnerApiPostsExternalV20230601), it looks like the connector is calling a backend endpoint that no longer exists or isn’t mapped correctly.
partnerApiPostsExternalV20230601
Questions:
Is the “Post an article” action in LinkedIn V2 currently working for anyone when posting to a personal profile?
Has this endpoint been deprecated or replaced internally?
Is this a known connector-side issue?
Any confirmation from others (working / not working) would really help determine whether this is environment-specific or a broader connector problem.
Thanks.
If you really want to make it work, you can always build it properly using the LinkedIn API and engineer (Vibecode) your way into a clean, structured solution.
The reason I’m not choosing that route is different. I want to automate posts on behalf of colleagues. Doing it in that way would mean handling their usernames and passwords, and that’s not a position I’m comfortable being in. From a security and compliance perspective, that simply isn’t the right approach.
