Questions about Create LinkedIn Image Post.

What does the Create LinkedIn Image Post action do in LinkedIn?
Publishes a post with commentary plus image media. For "auto-share product launches with the launch graphic" or "publish team announcements with photos" workflows.

What happens if LinkedIn returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message LinkedIn returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
