title: LinkedIn API feeds
body: <p>I'm looking into an issue where a clients LinkedIn feeds on their website have stopped showing. Debugging the problem I've found that I get a 403 error shown below:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Member xxxxxx does not have permission to get company xxxxx</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>As the LinkedIn authentication process can be quite difficult to comprehend, I had a look online to see if others have had the same problem, and managed to find <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30510999/not-getting-company-info">this</a>. It suggests there have been recent changes to the LinkedIn API and users are now required to be the administrator of the company. What exactly does this mean?</p>
  
  <p>From the very beginning we have simply been accessed the feeds by generating a url like this:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><a href="https://api.linkedin.com/v1/companies/xxxx/updates?oauth2_access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://api.linkedin.com/v1/companies/xxxx/updates?oauth2_access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN</a></p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>This has worked in the past. Do we need to regenerate the Secret and API keys?</p>
  
  <h2>Update</h2>
  
  <p>Looking at the announced changes here:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://developer.linkedin.com/support/developer-program-transition" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://developer.linkedin.com/support/developer-program-transition</a></p>
  
  <p>It suggests that the following endpoint will still work (which is exactly what I have):</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>/v1/companies/{id}</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So I'm not sure what I'm missing.</p>
