Issues with Find Post Audience and LinkedIn URL Errors

Hey. I cannot make "Find Post Audience" working as it finds my links invalid. They are all links mentioning my company LinkedIn page. But when I copied the post links, it does not match with the URL/URN rules specified. How this happens and what to do?

The "Find Post Audience" action requires a specific format for LinkedIn post URLs or URNs. The correct format should be either: 1. A full LinkedIn post URL: [https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:share::7304911929980903426/](https:://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:share:7304911929980903426/) 2. Or just the URN: urn:li:share:7304911929980903426 If your links don't match these formats, they'll be considered invalid. To fix this: 1. Ensure you're copying the full post URL from the address bar when viewing the post. 2. If using URNs, make sure they start with "urn:li:share:" followed by the unique identifier. If you're still having issues, could you paste an example of the URL or URN you're trying to use? This will help us troubleshoot further.

I can't use this action if the post is published by someone mentioning my company profile?

The "Find Post Audience" action is designed for posts you have direct access to, not for posts mentioning your company profile published by others. It requires specific LinkedIn post URLs or URNs. For analyzing the audience of posts mentioning your company, you have a few options: 1. Use Clay's "Social Posts" feature to find recent professional posts, including those mentioning your company. 2. Try services like Apify or Phantombuster, which can be integrated with Clay. Be cautious, as these use your LinkedIn account and may risk being blocked. 3. Utilize Claygent, our built-in AI research tool with web access. Advanced AI models like Argon or OpenAI's GPT 4o can yield good results for this type of analysis. If you need more help exploring these options, let me know.
