Troubleshooting LinkedIn Post Notifications to Slack Issue

Hi. I run a table for Linkedin new post monitor, that sends the post to my slack channel whenever someone on the list posts on Ln. It worked when the table went live, but not since. Like, if someone from the list posts a new post on Ln, I am not getting that on slack. I did get notifications on Saturday and Sunday so it worked. But Some of the posts are from 1 month back, which I had already received in slack via Clay a month back. Maybe I made some mistake somewhere in the settings? Could you please check. I want slack notifications only for a new post. for example, I received this both on Sat and Sun and one month back when I started this workflow- https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7334617637605257216

maybe this should not be on auto-update? It wasnt before but I changed it a week back.

Your LinkedIn post monitoring signal may have duplicate detection issues or frequency settings problems. Check your custom signal configuration: 1. Frequency settings: Verify how often your signal runs in the signal settings 2. Duplicate handling: The signal might be picking up old posts due to how it's configured to monitor the source 3. Slack enrichment: Ensure your Slack notification enrichment is properly configured to trigger only for new results To fix this, go to your signal settings and adjust the monitoring frequency and check if there are any filters to exclude already-processed posts. If you need further help troubleshooting the specific configuration, request human assistance by clicking "Talk to a person."

Yes, auto-update could be causing the duplicate notifications. Auto-update makes enrichments run automatically when new data is added, which might be re-processing old posts. For LinkedIn post monitoring signals, turn off auto-update to prevent re-processing existing posts. The signal should only run on its scheduled frequency to capture genuinely new posts, not re-enrich old ones. Check your signal's frequency settings and disable auto-update on any LinkedIn post enrichments to fix the duplicate issue.

Hey Ashwin! Would also suggest opening only one ticket per issue and not multiple to avoid confusion and ensure one person is tackling the issue!
