You can now attach various file types and voice notes to your LinkedIn messages.

This means you can share presentations, documents, and images quickly and clearly. Additionally, this feature allows you to record a voice note and send it as a LinkedIn message or along with a message from within We-Connect.

This feature is handy when you must convey a message quickly and efficiently without typing a long one. It's a great way to add a personal touch to your communication and build stronger relationships with your network.

We support the following types of files: .ppt, .pptx, .doc, .docx, .pdf, .xls, .xlsx, .m4v, .avi, .flv, .m4a, .mp4, .mov, .csv, .log, .pdf, .rtf, .txt, .xml, .jpg, .bmp, .png, and .jpeg.

How to send a file:

You can attach a file from a campaign sequence or within the 'Messaging' tab of We-Connect. No matter which you choose, you can find the icon in the same spot (just on different pages, of course).

Step 1: Navigate to your campaign sequence (by selecting an existing or new campaign from the 'Campaigns' tab) or the 'Messaging' tab of We-Connect.

Step 2: From the message window, click the paperclip icon to view and select a local file to attach.

Note: You cannot attach a file to a connection request, only to messages to existing connections or emails.

How to send a voice message:

Step 1: Navigate to the 'Messaging' tab of We-Connect.

Step 2: Choose the conversation thread where you want to send a voice message.

Step 3: Record your message, review it, and then send it.

Note:

  • When sending a voice note as an attachment, you should use .m4a file format, or the voice note cannot be played on LinkedIn.

  • Max 2 files can be attached per message, and only one voice note can be attached per message.

  • When sending a voice note as an attachment, please avoid writing a message.

  • The file size should not exceed 3MB.

If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to contact our support team using the icon in the bottom right corner of our website or app.
