Edit a post

The editor is where a draft becomes something you’d actually publish. Open a post from Posts, or use Open in editor on a draft in chat.

​

Writing

The main area is a live preview — what you see is close to how the post will appear on LinkedIn, including where the “see more” fold falls. Formatting sits in the toolbar:

• Bold (⌘B), Italic (⌘I), Underline (⌘U)
• Lists and text styles
• Clear Formatting to strip it back
• Emoji

​

The controls above the post

​

Getting AI help

Ask AI opens a chat attached to this post. That’s different from a fresh chat: it already has the draft, so you can ask for changes directly and one-click actions appear above the message box.

​

Adding media

Add media to post covers images, Video, PDF carousel, and Poll. See add media for what each format needs.

​

Working with others

• Post comment leaves a note on the draft for your team — these stay internal
• Assign Reviewer puts it in front of someone for approval
• Unsubscribe from updates stops notifications about this particular post

​

Other things worth knowing

• Revisions shows earlier versions, each with a Restore — so a rewrite you regret isn’t final

• Copy Post puts the text on your clipboard
• The device toggles preview how it looks on desktop, tablet, and mobile

​

When it’s ready

Schedule puts it on the calendar. Publish sends it now. See schedule or publish. Next: add images, a carousel or a poll. See adding media.
