You have likely received a LinkedIn specific activity served to your Gaggle by the Gaggle Manager. LinkedIn is an amazing social media platform to interact with those in your business network and it often demands flexibility in the Activities served in GaggleAMP. Sometimes this is displayed as an Activity that you are asked to share and sometimes it gets more complicated into a re-share or re-share (link). To better understand what each request looks like, and what the output is on LinkedIn, here are a few examples.
What Does a ‘LinkedIn Share Post’ Activity Look Like as a Member in the Gaggle and on LinkedIn?
Desktop
Once a ‘LinkedIn Share Post’ activity has been posted, it will appear in the Member activities feed located under ‘Activities’ in the ‘Things to do”’ tabs. Should the Members choose to do this activity, they simply click ‘Share on LinkedIn.’
Mobile
From the Mobile home screen, a Member can click ‘Share on LinkedIn’ from their Activities under ‘Activities’.
Once ‘Share on LinkedIn’ has been clicked, the contents of this activity will be posted to LinkedIn.
What Does a ‘LinkedIn RePost With Link’ Activity as a Member Look Like?
Desktop
Once a ‘LinkedIn RePost with Link' activity has been posted, it will appear in the Member activities feed located under ‘Activities’ in the ‘My Feed’ or ‘Discover’ tabs. Should the Member choose to do this activity, they simply click ‘Go to LinkedIn to Share.’

What Does a ‘LinkedIn Re-Share Post’ Activity as a Member Look Like?
Desktop
Once a ‘LinkedIn Re-Share Post’ activity has been posted, it will appear in the Member Activities feed located under ‘Activities’ in the ‘My Feed’ or ‘Discover’ tabs. Should the Members choose to do this activity, they simply click ‘Click to Re-Share.’
Once clicked, a slider will appear. The Members can choose to prepend the activity with their own commentary about the post they are about to re-share. Prepending the message is not a requirement to re-share the post but doing so adds the employees’ voice and can make the shared activity appear more authentic.
Members also have the opportunity to schedule the activity from this view. To do so, simply toggle the button and choose the default schedule or ‘set my own time and date.’ If the Member does nothing here, this activity will be shared immediately.
Mobile
From the Mobile home screen, a Member can ‘Click to Re-Share’ from their Activities under ‘My Feed.'
