5 new LinkedIn metrics in your Notion database

LinkedIn recently updated their API to expose more post-level metrics. We've plugged them all into Scheduled. Here's what's new in your Notion database.

What's new

The 5 metrics you can now track on your LinkedIn posts:

• Reach : the number of unique people who saw your post. Different from impressions, which count total views including reloads.
• Saves : the number of times your post was saved. A stronger engagement signal than a like.
• Sends : the number of times your post was sent via direct message. The strongest engagement signal.
• Profile views : the number of LinkedIn profile views driven by this post.
• Followers gained : the number of new followers attributed to this post.

|Bonus: reach and saves are also available for Instagram. You can now compare LinkedIn and Instagram on the same signals.

How to enable these metrics

Pour

||Important: these properties must be of type Number in Notion. If you use "Add to Notion" via the mapping, it's done automatically. If you create them manually, make sure to pick that type.

If you use the new metrics mapping

Open the "Metrics" settings of your calendar. You'll find new fields to map. Click "Add to Notion" to create all properties at once in your Notion database.

If you're still on the legacy sc_linkedin_* properties

Check that you have these 5 Number properties in your Notion database. Create the missing ones:

• sc_linkedin_reach
• sc_linkedin_saves
• sc_linkedin_sends
• sc_linkedin_profile_views
• sc_linkedin_followers_gained

|If you used the original Scheduled template, the last 2 already exist but have been stuck at 0 since we killed our Chrome extension. They'll come back to life at the next refresh.

At the next automatic refresh (every 8 hours), everything fills in.

Want to refresh stats right now?

Go to your LinkedIn connection settings and trigger a manual refresh. This launches an immediate fetch of the new metrics on your most recent posts.

A bit of history

2 months ago we killed our Chrome extension. It was scraping profile_views and followers_gained, but maintaining a separate extension was costly and fragile. Our bet: LinkedIn would eventually expose these metrics officially. In April, they did. And as a bonus we inherited 3 extra metrics.
