Updated 

Sprinklr allows direct messages from LinkedIn Profiles to LinkedIn Company accounts. LinkedIn Company accounts cannot initiate a conversation, however, they can react and reply to the DMs sent by the LinkedIn profile accounts. This article provides you with the steps to send DMs from LinkedIn profiles to LinkedIn company pages.

Note:

  • LinkedIn page cannot initiate DMs to other profiles but reply is supported.

  • Admins of the Company page with permission(“Manage messages to the Page”) will have the ability to reply on behalf of the company page.

  • If the Company page has disabled DMs then user profiles will not be able to send DMs.

  • User will have to re-add the LinkedIn Company Page in Sprinklr for accessing the Direct Messages, after the functionality is enabled.

Prerequisites
