/v1/actions/linkedin-comment-post/run/liveLinkedIn Comment Post publishes a comment on a specific LinkedIn post so your engagement shows up in the target's notifications and the post's comment thread. You get a single-record primitive for triggered engagement, where the comment body can be templated, AI-generated, or fully pre-written.
It runs on the LinkedIn level and uses your connected LinkedIn session, so every comment is attributable to your account.
You pass the post URN or URL and a comment body. Edges signs the request with your authenticated LinkedIn session, posts the comment, and returns the new comment's ID along with a typed status payload. The action runs on Edges infrastructure with safe pacing, so you do not handle cookies, retries, or throttling yourself.
The action supports plain text and mentions — pass mention tokens in the body and Edges resolves them against the authenticated session before posting. The operation is synchronous: by the time the run completes, the comment is live.
Use LinkedIn Comment Post when a comment is higher-signal than a like — when you have something specific to add, when the post surfaces in an ICP-relevant thread, or when you want the post author's notifications to light up with your name. It plugs into the LinkedIn messaging & outreach API workflow.
Comments are the highest-effort social primitive and the highest-return: they put you in front of the author's network, not just the author themselves.
One per run. LinkedIn Comment Post is a per-record primitive — for a campaign, loop it over a filtered input list sourced from Search LinkedIn Content or Extract LinkedIn People Post Activity.
Your LinkedIn account. You connect LinkedIn to Edges once and every comment runs through that authenticated session, fully attributable to your account.
Yes. Typical chains wire Extract LinkedIn Post Likers into downstream warmup, then use LinkedIn Comment Post as the commenting touchpoint, followed by Message LinkedIn Profile.
Add LinkedIn Comment Post to any triggered engagement flow on Edges, or call it directly from the Edges API to drive social touches at scale. Browse the full Actions library for the surrounding primitives.
