X to LinkedIn crossposting

Post on X. Show up on LinkedIn too.

Keep writing on X and let MicroPoster publish each new post to your LinkedIn profile. Your professional network sees the update without you opening LinkedIn and pasting it again.

Getting started

Connect X to LinkedIn in three steps

  1. Connect X and LinkedIn

    Sign in to MicroPoster and authorize both accounts. LinkedIn asks you to approve posting on your behalf. MicroPoster never sees your password.

    The Connected accounts page with an X, a Threads, a Bluesky, a Mastodon and a LinkedIn account connected.
  2. Set X as the source

    Create a crossposting automation with X as the source and LinkedIn as the destination. Add hashtags if you want them on every LinkedIn copy.

    An active Auto Crosspost automation from X to LinkedIn.
  3. Publish your next tweet

    Post on X as usual. After the next check, open your LinkedIn profile and review the copy, its media and where any long text was cut.

    Recent activity on the dashboard: crossposts from X to Bluesky and Threads and reposts on X, each marked Completed with a link.

What happens to your tweets on LinkedIn

A thread becomes one post

LinkedIn has no threads. The tweets in a thread are joined into a single LinkedIn post with a blank line between them. LinkedIn allows 3,000 characters, so most threads fit in full.

Long text is trimmed, not rejected

If a joined thread runs past 3,000 characters, MicroPoster cuts it at a word boundary and adds an ellipsis, keeping your hashtags. LinkedIn would otherwise reject the whole post.

Images, video and links

A LinkedIn post carries one video or up to 20 images. If a thread has both, the video goes up. A post with only a link gets a link card.

Hashtags stay clickable

LinkedIn treats characters like brackets, asterisks and underscores as formatting. MicroPoster escapes them so your text arrives intact, and keeps hashtags linked.

LinkedIn is a destination only

LinkedIn only lets approved partners read a member's posts, so MicroPoster can publish to LinkedIn but can't crosspost from it. Auto Repost isn't available on LinkedIn for the same reason.

Reconnect every 60 days

LinkedIn connections last 60 days. MicroPoster emails you a week before yours expires, and reconnecting takes one click from the Connected accounts page.

Questions about this workflow

Need help with your accounts? Contact us.

Can I automatically post my tweets to LinkedIn?

Yes. Connect your X and LinkedIn accounts, create an automation with X as the source and LinkedIn as the destination, and activate it. MicroPoster checks for new tweets at your plan's interval and publishes each one to your LinkedIn profile.

Can I crosspost from LinkedIn to X instead?

No. LinkedIn only lets approved partners read a member's posts, so LinkedIn can't be a source. You can crosspost to LinkedIn from X, Threads, Bluesky or Mastodon.

Does it post to my company page?

Not yet. MicroPoster publishes to your personal LinkedIn profile, which is the account you connect.

Can Threads or Bluesky posts go to LinkedIn too?

Yes. Any connected X, Threads, Bluesky or Mastodon account can be the source of a LinkedIn automation. Create one automation per source account.

How quickly does automatic crossposting run?

MicroPoster checks for new posts at the interval included in your plan. Crossposting is not instant. Platform availability, media processing and your remaining allowance can affect when a post is published.

Can I keep a post on just one platform?

Yes. Add #nocrosspost or #keephere to the post, or a reply in its thread, to skip it in automatic crossposting. You can still crosspost it manually from your dashboard.

Do I need a credit card to try MicroPoster?

No. New accounts receive a 7-day trial under the Creator plan limits. A trial without payment details does not automatically become a paid subscription. Check Pricing for the current account limits and allowances.
