  Hi,
  Unfortunately, this feature (upload) is not supported by Linkedin.
  You can use a picture URL instead.
  The status message is not accurate.

  Ok clear thanks. That's unfortunate.
  You might want to make that clear in the documentation for other users, and update the status message response.

  There's still a bug here with LinkedIN. When I post a pictureUrl to LinkedIn I get the following error:
  
  message: 'The provider did not accept the message, it is incomplete: The message must contain the node [text->body] and/or both nodes [link->caption] and [link->url]' } }
  
  The json that I post is correct though, you can see both required parts are in the json, and it works fine for Facebook / Twitter
  
  parts: {
  text: {
  body: 'Did you know?'
  },
  link: {
  caption: "",
  url: 'https://socialchore.s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/Fileboard---Chew-gum-to-charge-up-your-sales.png'
  },
  picture: {
  url: 'https://socialchore.s3-eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/Fileboard---Chew-gum-to-charge-up-your-sales.png'
  },
  uploads: [
  {
  name: 'Fileboard---Chew-gum-to-charge-up-your-sales.png',
  data: base64String
  }
  ]
  }
  
  Note that I have to include uploads because I'm both posting to Twitter (which only accepts uploads, not picture url), Facebook and LinkedIn.
