LinkedIn in Roma
Publish a post from a task or a note, after a card shows the whole text.
Connect LinkedIn and your operator can publish a text post under your name from wherever you wrote it, a task, a note or the chat itself, after you approve it on a card that shows the complete text. It can take a post down when you ask, and it reads your own profile and nothing else on LinkedIn. Roma posts only when you ask.
Drafting and publishing a post
Sam writes a post in a note over a few days. When it is ready he opens the note and says "Post this". The operator takes the note's body as it stands and shows a card with the post exactly as it will appear, word for word, as tall as the post is, and a button that reads Post to LinkedIn. He reads it through and presses the button, and the post is live, with its link in the reply.
The text can come from anywhere: the task or note you are viewing, one you mention with @, an item on a list ("Post the Thursday item from my LinkedIn list"), a passage you highlighted, or the message itself. "Write a post about shipping fast and put it out" composes the text and then asks. Publishing needs the explicit ask every time: "draft a post about the launch" ends with a draft in the reply and nothing goes out, and a yes from earlier never covers a later post.
LinkedIn renders no formatting, so bold, headings and the rest come off before the card: a heading becomes its words, a link becomes its text followed by the address in parentheses, a list keeps its lines. What you see on the card is what ships. A post is text only: a picture in the text is dropped, and the card says so. A post over 3,000 characters is refused before anything goes out, with the count to cut, and so is one with no words left once the formatting is gone. A post goes out under your name as a public post.
Taking a post down
"Delete that post" removes it, after a card, using the link the operator handed back when it published. A published post cannot be edited through Roma. To fix one, ask for the delete and then publish the corrected text, two asks. Roma cannot search or list your posts on LinkedIn, so a post whose link is not in the conversation cannot be found: keep the link, or keep your posts on a list of your own, which the operator can search ("What did I post last month?").
What it never does
It never reads your feed, other people's profiles or posts, comments or reactions, and never posts to a company page. It never comments on anyone's post. Nothing is published without the card, and the card is the only place the post is shown in full after the operator has read, trimmed and flattened it, so it is worth reading to the end.
How to connect
Open Settings → Connections and press LinkedIn. Sign in with LinkedIn in the window that opens, allow what it lists, and close the page when it says Connected. The row carries a green check, and its page shows three permission groups: Reading, your own profile, always allowed, and Sending and Deleting, which ask first unless you set them to Always allow. One LinkedIn account per connection. The iPhone's Settings → Connections carries the same row. The general steps are in Connect an app to Roma, the card in Approvals, and the public page is /connections/linkedin.
How to disconnect
Settings → Connections, press LinkedIn, then Disconnect. Access ends at once. Links to posts you published stay in your conversations.
Questions people ask
Can Roma post without asking me?
Not unless you set Sending to Always allow on the connection's page. By default every publish shows the card with the full text and waits for you.
Can it add a picture to the post?
No. A post is text only. A picture in the text is left out and the card tells you so, so a post that needs its picture is one to publish in LinkedIn itself.
Can it edit a post after it is published?
No. A published post is final on Roma's side. Delete it and publish the corrected version, each on your ask.
Why does the post lose its bold text?
Because LinkedIn shows plain text only. Roma removes the formatting rather than faking it with look-alike characters, which screen readers cannot read.
