Login with LinkedIn

To enable LinkedIn Auth for your project, you need to set up a LinkedIn OAuth application and add the application credentials to your Supabase Dashboard.

Overview

Setting up LinkedIn logins for your application consists of 3 parts:

Steps

Access your LinkedIn Developer account

LinkedIn Developer Portal

Find your callback URL

The next step requires a callback URL, which looks like this:

https://<project-ref>.supabase.co/auth/v1/callback

  • Go to your Supabase Project Dashboard.
  • Click on the Settings icon at the bottom of the left sidebar.
  • Click on API in the list.
  • Under Config / URL you'll find your API URL, you can click Copy to copy it to the clipboard.
  • Now just add /auth/v1/callback to the end of that to get your full OAuth Redirect URI.

Create a LinkedIn OAuth app

  • Go to LinkedIn Developer Dashboard.
  • Click on Create App at the top right
  • Enter your LinkedIn Page and App Logo
  • Save your app
  • Click Auth from the top menu
  • Add your Redirect URL to the Authorized Redirect URLs for your app section
  • Copy and save your newly-generated Client ID
  • Copy and save your newly-generated Client Secret

Enter your LinkedIn credentials into your Supabase Project

  • Go to your Supabase Project Dashboard.
  • In the left sidebar, click the Authentication icon (near the top).
  • Click Settings from the list to go to the Authentication Settings page.
  • Enter the final (hosted) URL of your app under Site URL (this is important).
  • Under External OAuth Providers turn LinkedIn Enabled to ON.
  • Enter your API Key (client_id) and API Secret Key (client_secret) saved in the previous step.
  • Click Save.

Add login code to your client app

The JavaScript client code is documented here: Supabase OAuth Client Code.

const { user, session, error } = await supabase.auth.signIn({
provider: 'LinkedIn',
})

Add this function which you can call from a button, link, or UI element.

async function signInWithLinkedIn() {
const { user, session, error } = await supabase.auth.signIn({
provider: 'LinkedIn',
})
}

To log out:

async function signout() {
const { error } = await supabase.auth.signOut()
}
