    Question:

     

    We're integrating LinkedIn to CA Single Sign-On and we've seen that
    the permissions has changed when configuring the LinkedIn :

    Before 1st March 2019, permission were as per document, p.13 :

     

    CA SiteMinder Social Sign-On Runbook for LinkedIn IDP

     

    r_basicprofile

    r_emailaccount

     

    https://support.ca.com/phpdocs/1/8231/runbooks/CASM-LinkedInIDPFederationRunbook-ver1.pdf

     

    but after 1st March 2019, the naming has changed and we'd like to know
    which permissions should be set (Default Scope).

     

    Answer:

     

    From our documentation you showed us, it needs

     

    Default Scope – r_basicprofile, r_emailaddress

     

    It looks like that in v2 version of LinkedIn API, you need to use

    "r_liteprofile (replaces r_basicprofile)" and r_emailaddress.

    Does my developer application have access to the LinkedIn v2 API?
    All developer applications created on the LinkedIn Developer Portal after January 14, 2019 have access to the LinkedIn v2 API by default. Alternatively, if your developer
    application has made a successful LinkedIn v1 API request from September 1, 2018 to December 17, 2018, your developer application has immediate access to the v2 API.

     

    What permissions do I have access to?

     

    LinkedIn v1 APIs provided the following set of permissions:

    r_basicprofile
    r_emailaddress
    w_share
    rw_company_admin

     

    Moving forward, the available v2 APIs include:

    r_liteprofile (replaces r_basicprofile)
    r_emailaddress
    w_member_social (replaces w_share)

     

    Looking to maintain access to rw_company_admin? Apply to the LinkedIn Marketing Developer Program to continue managing your Company Pages.

    About the r_fullprofile, note this :

     

    How to get LinkedIn r_fullprofile access?

     

    For getting permission to access r_fullprofile, you will have to apply
    to become a member of a relevant Partner Program.

     

    Apply for partner status with LinkedIn, explaining what your
    integration is and how it works. If it meets the criteria of "we feel
    that they’re providing value to members, developers and LinkedIn,"
    then r_fullprofile endpoint will remain open for that app, and ONLY
    that app
