How to connect LinkedIn MCP Server
Step 1
Local server — run it on your machine
LinkedIn MCP Server runs locally over stdio. You need Node.js (for npx) or Python (for uvx) installed, then add the command below to your client's MCP config file.
Command
uvx --from git+https://github.com/eliasbiondo/linkedin-mcp-server linkedin-mcp-server
Client config snippet
{
"mcpServers": {
"linkedin-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"--from",
"git+https://github.com/eliasbiondo/linkedin-mcp-server",
"linkedin-mcp-server"
]
}
}
}Step 2
Authenticate with OAuth
Your client opens a browser sign-in with the vendor. Approve only the scopes you need, and use a read-only account first when the platform offers one.
Step 3
Verify, then widen access
Restart your client, confirm the server's tools appear, and run one read-only question first. Keep client-side approval prompts on for any tool that can write, trade or send. Confirm with your firm's compliance policy before connecting systems holding client data.
