Visibility of your updates, posts, and activity

Last updated: 1 year ago

Your activity on LinkedIn shows all recent posts you've shared, and changes you've made to your profile. Your recent activity on LinkedIn also determines the type of content that will be displayed on your LinkedIn feed.

When you make an update to your profile or hit a professional milestone such as a work anniversary, these updates are visible to your connections on your Recent activity.

Changes to your LinkedIn account that may trigger updates are:
  • Adding or editing a new/current job position.
  • Current work experience anniversaries.
  • Birthday anniversaries.

LinkedIn no longer displays work anniversaries and birthdays of your connections in your LinkedIn feed. Instead, you'll receive these updates on the Notifications page.

You can choose the visibility of posts you share on LinkedIn.

When you add a new position or a promotion on your LinkedIn profile, the update won't be automatically shared with your network if the Share Profile edits option is turned Off. You will have to manually post and share updates.

Notes:

  • For schedule posts, the post will be published with the visibility setting that you select at the time the post is created.
  • If you see an error when you share a post, clear your browser’s cache and cookies or switch to a different browser.
