LinkedIn Project URLs

LinkedIn has removed the ability to associate a ‘project’ with a URL. It seems the new flow that they want users to adopt is to associate ‘media’ with projects. These media items can have a URL or a static file.

It’s hard for me to understand why this change was implemented. Media items are rendered as a box, much like a thumbnail on YouTube, so they’re clearly optimized for visual works. They take up more space on the screen and it’s less obvious that they are click-able.

Luckily, so many projects exist with URLs that LinkedIn cannot simply remove the feature. The fields still exist in the backend and they have yet to protect that route from external API calls.

1. Open a LinkedIn project in your preferred browser. Any browser that supports a ‘developer tools’ view will work.
2. Make a minor edit and submit it using the ‘Save’ button.
3. A POST request to a route like graphql?action=execute&queryId=voyagerIdentity... should have been captured. You can either copy this request into an external REST API client of your choice, or edit and resend the request within your browser. In Firefox you can hit the ‘Resend’ button.
4. Edit the request body in the following ways: a. Find the formElementUrn field and replace the value with url. b. Find the textInputValue field and replace it with the URL you want associated with the project. c. Find the trackingId field and delete it entirely. This will simply bypass a backend check. d. Find the queryID (will probably be the last one) and add a new field after it. This field should be "includeWebMetadata":true.
5. Submit the edited POST request and reload your browser.

Works like a charm as of February 2026.
